To Share or Not to Share: Is That the Question? (EDUCAUSE Review) | EDUCAUSE - 1 views

  •  
    My goal in writing this article is to help faculty, administrators, and college/university support staff to better understand who open faculty are and why they make the choices they make. The model presented here is my best attempt to map out the open faculty mindset (both analog and digital). My hope is that some enterprising graduate students and/or faculty members will take up a more academic research project to see if this model holds for a large sample of faculty. And if they do conduct this research, I hope they will openly share their findings as they progress.

Mind - Research Upends Traditional Thinking on Study Habits - NYTimes.com - 4 views

  • Take the notion that children have specific learning styles, that some are “visual learners” and others are auditory; some are “left-brain” students, others “right-brain.” In a recent review of the relevant research, published in the journal Psychological Science in the Public Interest, a team of psychologists found almost zero support for such ideas.
  • We have yet to identify the common threads between teachers who create a constructive learning atmosphere
  • many study skills courses insist that students find a specific place, a study room or a quiet corner of the library, to take their work. The research finds just the opposite.

  • What we think is happening here is that, when the outside context is varied, the information is enriched, and this slows down forgetting

Shocker: Empathy Dropped 40% in College Students Since 2000 | Psychology Today - 1 views

  • While it so obviously measures empathy that you could easily game it to make yourself look kinder and nicer, the fact that today's college students don't even feel compelled to do that suggests that the study is measuring something real. If young people don't even care about seeming uncaring, something is seriously wrong.
  • Though social media is an improvement on passive TV viewing and can sometimes aid real friendships, it is still less rich than face to face interaction. This is especially important for the youngest children whose brains are absorbing social information that will shape the way they connect for the rest of their lives.
  • Perhaps an even larger factor is the merging of the left's "do your own thing" individualism with the right's glorification of brutal competition and unfettered markets. You wind up with a society that teaches kids that "you're on your own" and that helping others is for suckers.

  • if you know nothing about someone's real situation, it's easy to caricature it as being defined by bad choices and laziness, rather than understand the constraints and limits the economy itself imposes. Seeing yourself doing so well and others doing poorly tends to bolster ideas that "you deserve your wealth," simply because guilt otherwise becomes uncomfortable, even unbearable.

    College students who hit campus after 2000 have empathy levels that are 40% lower than those who came before them, according to a stunning new meta-analysis presented to at the annual meeting of the Association for Psychological Science by University of Michigan researchers. It includes data from over 14,000 students.

The good, the bad, and the average: Ability peer effects in schools | vox - Research-ba... - 0 views

shared by eoeuoeu oepup on 10 Feb 10 - Cached
  •  
    We show that a large fraction of "bad" peers at school - as identified by students in the bottom 5% of the ability distribution - negatively and significantly affects the cognitive performance of other schoolmates. Importantly, as we show in our work, it is only the very bottom 5% students that (negatively) matter, and not 'bad' peers in other parts of the ability distribution (e.g. the 5-to-10% worst students).

    Det er laget en del retningslinjer for hvordan man skal "skrive for web", men det finnes mindre for hvordan man skal "snakke på web". Jacobsen har samlet sammen retniningslinjer for hvordan lydinnhold bør utformes. Han har hentet disse retningslinjene fra radiojournalistikk, psykologi, informasjonsarkitektur og usability.

Mohamed Amine Chatti's ongoing research on Technology Enhanced Learning: LaaN vs. Socia... - 1 views

  • Social Constructivism is a theory of learning based upon the learners' social interaction and collaboration.
  • Knowledge is much more varied and uncertain. As Siemens (2006) stresses: “In today's world, knowledge life is short; it survives only a short period of time before it is outdated”
  • In LaaN, knowledge is a personal network rather than an object that can be constructed.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • LaaN views learning as both intrinsic and extrinsic; it occurs through the continuous building of personal knowledge networks, at both internal/conceptual and external levels.
  • . In LaaN, everyone is a knowledge networker and can thus act as a novice in one context and step into the expert role in another context. And, in LaaN, the bridge between where the learner is and where she is going is through her personal knowledge network, rather than in the hands of a teacher or a more competent peer.
  • a knowledge ecology is open, multidirectional, and without an end point of development.
