    This article is from the journal of U of T's School of Information Science. Based on research in public libraries, it speaks about the importance of promoting play, discovery, and collegiality in makerspaces. It offers some encouragement re: letting students mess around, after at least a little guidance!

      How can we expect this for teachers to grow and not offer it to students?
  • The study found few examples of compulsory classroom-style training. Instead, professional learning “is incentivized through recognition and sometimes tangible rewards, usually within a culture of high expectations.”

      I agree with recognition but not tangible rewards...
  • Learning is immersive
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • The study identified these five global trends in professional learning
  • Learning is integrated
  • A 2013 Australian study conducted by the government-funded Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership and the nonprofit Innovation Unit examined 50 high-performing corporations, educational institutions, and nonprofit organizations from around the globe to identify common features of professional learning experiences.
  • Learning is design-led
  • Learning is market-led
  • Learning is open
  • These finding suggest that education professionals should have an individual learning plan and access to a combination of collaborative and online learning experiences, all of which need to be reinforced by regular embedded feedback and assessment mechanisms.
  •  Our ability to ensure that professional learning is highly relevant and personalized, incentivized, and largely self-directed for all teachers will be paramount to the success of our education institutions.

    "One of my favourite sources for information and guidelines regarding referencing and citation styles is the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL). I have heard several professors (in the humanities, at least) recommend it to graduate students. But there are also several other resources student researchers and academics can draw on to hone in their research writing skills. This page from Plagiarism.org features a plethora of excellent materials and citation sources that are all available online or in the form of PDF documents , free to download and use. "

    Thanks, Justin! This is really helpful. I refer students to the OWL at Purdue all the time. It seems to work better for them than our old-fashioned library handouts, or referring them to their style guides.

    This is a great tool, Justin. Thanks for sharing it. I will forward this as a recommendation for the LC website at my school. This is a great tool for students & teachers to use as part of the ongoing conversation about plagiarism.
