      Mitra's experiment- what will kids do with a computer?
  • “If you put a computer in front of children and remove all other adult restrictions, they will self-organize around it,” Mitra says, “like bees around a flower.”
  • “The bottom line is, if you’re not the one controlling your learning, you’re not going to learn as well.”
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Theorists from Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi to Jean Piaget and Maria Montessori have argued that students should learn by playing and following their curiosity.
  • The study found that when the subjects controlled their own observations, they exhibited more coordination between the hippocampus and other parts of the brain involved in learning and posted a 23 percent improvement in their ability to remember objects. “The bottom line is, if you’re not the one who’s controlling your learning, you’re not going to learn as well,” says lead researcher Joel Voss, now a neuroscientist at Northwestern University.
  • A similar study at UC Berkeley demonstrated that kids given no instruction were much more likely to come up with novel solutions to a problem.

A Learning Secret: Don't Take Notes with a Laptop - Scientific American - 0 views

laptop notes notetaking

  • students who write out their notes on paper actually learn more. 
  • those who wrote out their notes by hand had a stronger conceptual understanding and were more successful in applying and integrating the material than those who used took notes with their laptops.
  • taking notes by hand forces the brain to engage in some heavy “mental lifting,” and these efforts foster comprehension and retention.  By contrast, when typing students can easily produce a written record of the lecture without processing its meaning
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • high verbatim note content was associated with lower retention of the lecture material
  • transcription fails to promote a meaningful understanding or application of the information
  • Because students can use these posted materials to access lecture content with a mere click, there is no need to organize, synthesize or summarize in their own words.
  • those who took longhand notes outperformed laptop participants.  Because longhand notes contain students’ own words and handwriting, they may serve as more effective memory cues by recreating the context (e.g., thought processes, emotions, conclusions) as well as content (e.g., individual facts) from the original learning session.
  • evidence suggests that when college students use laptops, they spend 40% of class time using applications unrelated to coursework, are more likely to fall off task, and are less satisfied with their education
  • even when technology allows us to do more in less time, it does not always foster learning.  Learning involves more than the receipt and the regurgitation of information
  • When it comes to taking notes, students need fewer gigs, more brain power.
