leapfrogging

  • This means that youth will produce new thought tools to help them cope with increasing chaos and ambiguity in the modern world.
  • This means that youth will counter the tyranny of traditional perceptions of clock time through their personal time constructs, including conceptualizations of history, the present and future that can be strategically compressed and stretched.
  • This means that youth gravitate toward the acquisition of new information, rather than shying away from it; and that the abundance of information will be valued as a socioeconomic resource.

  • This means that youth will devote their lives to the construction and application of meaning, both explicit and implicit.
  • This means that youth will become increasingly capable as designers and architects of alternative knowledge foundations to improve their lives.
  • This means that youth will not only enjoy learning from their mistakes, but also aim to turn mistakes into successes.

    Are the old basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic relevant in the 21st century? Or, is it time for an upgrade? Arthur Harkins and John Moravec assembled a list of New Basics for education that can help us leapfrog to an education paradigm that is both innovative and relevant for the 21st century and beyond.

    A new school model called High Tech High is getting good early reviews for its project-based teaching. It is one of several ventures said to be part of what promoters call the 21st-century skills movement. Somewhere John Dewey is chuckling, because he had the idea in the 1890s. The work, not the season, should be the focus. Creating something useful to other people (click on my blog!) should be part of school. Everything should not ride on a letter grade in June.

  • By John I. Goodlad
  • We need to be aware that recent decades of research on cognition reveal hardly any correlation of standardized test scores with a wide range of desired behavioral characteristics such as dependability, ability to work alone and with others, and planning, or with an array of virtues such as honesty, decency, compassion, etc. Employers dissatisfied with employees who studied mathematics and the physical sciences in first-rate universities often call for higher test scores. Is academic development the totality of the purpose of schooling?
  • The consequence, of course, was the substantial narrowing of pedagogy to simply drilling for tests. We do not need schools for this. It is training, not education, and access to it can be obtained almost anywhere at any time in this increasingly technological age. That would leave the opportunity to turn schools, whose prime function has long been child care, into centers of pedagogy with the mission of guiding what education is: the process of becoming a unique human being whose responsibility it is to make the most of oneself.

  • what schools are for.
  • they are to provide whatever educational is not being taken care of in the rest of our society.
  • What we must do now nationwide is begin the 20-or-more-year process of creating a new tomorrow.
  • They will vary widely in their agendas of change, just as they vary in their cultural settings.

  • When teachers stop talking deep learning takes place
  • Speaking 80 per cent of the time in conversation means I'm waiting for you to stop to have the chance to talk. In counselling you have to do the opposite, you have to listen and that's what I want teachers to do.

    JOHN HATTIE has spent his life studying the studies to find out what works in education. His advice to teachers? Just shut up .. teachers need to stop spending 80 per cent of their time in class talking and start listening. ''When teachers stop talking deep learning takes place,''

  • Teachers are more like coaches now
  • teachers were explorers, and I riffed about the changed world, the internet, and the importance of adults helping kids formulate questions, not regurgitate answers.

  • of John W. Gardner’s observation, “All too often, we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.”
  • Today’s approaches to accountability may also be turning teachers into competitors, not teammates in a shared enterprise
  • charter authorizers have made it too easy to get a charter, with predictable consequences
  • The schools I am writing about here have strong leadership, a balanced curriculum that includes art and music, and (most often) a strong working relationship with families. Inside these schools you find students and teachers who want to be there.

    Cristóbal Cobo sent me this link to the Ung Kommunikation [Young Communication] project. The project examines the convergence of new technologies, youth culture and learning. And, by looking at the influence of youth culture on digital communication, the project might be able to identify a bridge between the divide of formal and non-formal learning.
