21st Century Skills are so last century! ~ Stephen's Web - 4 views

  •  
    My list is very different: - emergent thinking: extracting patterns, rules, regularities, prototypes - sensing value - finding meaning, truth, relevance, purpose, goals - acting semiotically - using signs, signals, art, desig, etc., to do things - seeing beyond - describing, defining, drawing conclusions, explaining data - ecological sensitivity - placing in context, seeing frames, making meaning - living in change - understanding flow, adaptation, progression

  • Using my school as an example….I beleive the only outcomes we need for any lesson are these factors that my school has agreed upon: Learning is the primary focus of our school and we recognize learning as a life-long adventure. We value meaningful learning where students construct enduring understanding by developing and applying knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Increased understanding is evidenced by students who: - Explain its relevance - Describe how it connects to or conflicts with prior learning - Communicate it effectively to others - Generalize and apply it effectively to new situations - Reflect critically on their own and other’s learning - Ask questions to extend learning - Create meaningful solutions

About Me… Tony Baldasaro @Baldy7 | TransLeadership - 0 views

  •  
    I write and think with the following assumptions: 1. All have the capacity to learn beyond the levels artificially set by the institution of school. 2. In schools, time and resources need to be the variables, not expectations. 3. Collective intelligence is more powerful than singular. 4. We need to prepare our students for a collaborative world, not a competitive one. 5. We are at the beginning of a revolution. 6. Failure should be celebrated, provided that it is unique. 7. Listening is more important than talking. 8. Sometimes in order to lead, one has to follow. 9. In order to learn, vulnerabilities need to be shared.

Stephen Downes: The Role of the Educator - 0 views

  •  
    I asked about the idea of multiple roles in education to Twitter readers and gathered a set of them. I then took this set and went through it with the class online...The result was a unique -- and colorful -- slide show exploring the evolving education profession. It's worth actually taking the time to list some of these roles and to talk about them in detail:

    Despite the non-stop action, the most exciting part of this first semester in a new school has been how much we have been able to accomplish in such a short time. Not just on the individual teacher level, either, much of the work I have been focusing on has an impact on the whole school.
