NZ Interface MagazIne | EIght habIts of hIghly effectIve 21st century teachers - 7 views

  • 4. Taking risksThere’s so much to learn. How can you as an educator know all these things? You must take risks and sometimes surrender yourself to the students’ knowledge. Have a vision of what you want and what the technology can achieve, identify the goals and facilitate the learning. Use the strengths of the digital natives to understand and navigate new products, have them teach each other. Trust your students.

      I see thIs so much In those teachers who are afraId to mIss a day of class If somethIng doesn't work as planned. Years go by, and all those neat lessons they'd lIke to do, remaIn untrIed. Teachers end up dIsappoInted they weren't able to update theIr teachIngs, and students are dIsappoInted wIth the redundant, "safe" lessons.

      We all need to take little risks each day in how we teach. Reach out try something new, how else will we grow in our practice.

Lydia Dobyns: A '21st Century' Education is SO Last Century - 34 views

  • We can't know what the classroom will look or feel like. We do know, however, that most school districts are organized to deliver education that inhibits rather than encourages innovation. That needs to change.
  • like "Deeper Learning" as a way to convey both the acquisition of knowledge and the transference/application of knowledge along with developing skills employers find valuable -- collaboration, communications and critical thinking
  • t's time to move on and work together to develop education systems that meet students where they live and provide a relevant education to develop cognitive and non-cognitive skills
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Of course, schools and classroom practices need to be current -- what teacher or district leader would say that we should continue to teach the way we did back in the "good ol' days?" Can you show me a successful organization or business that prides itself on keeping things exactly the way they were?
  • We need to believe the adults delivering education services are capable of being innovative, adaptive and collaborative and welcome being accountable for student outcomes. Then we need to invest in this belief by providing both the professional development and the infrastructure to make this belief a reality for all students and all teachers.
  • Ultimately, it is about delivering core education in today's world by today's standards of success.
  • I belIeve thIs Is the basIc approach: EducatIon needs to be more relevant and rIgorous for students. EducatIonal InstItutIons need to be more engagIng and empowerIng for teachers. A hIgh school dIploma needs to be more dIrectly applIcable and valued In the economy. These are attaInable goals; all educatIon Investments should be measured agaInst these objectIves.

      What does this mean?
  • Locke believed
  • Rousseau believed
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Grotius posited that individual human beings had natural rights; Hobbes asserted that humans consent to abdicate their rights in favor of the absolute authority of government
    • Carolyn Eccleston
       
      What is the difference between the two beliefs?
  • The Lockean concept of the social contract was invoked in the United States Declaration of independence.
    • Carolyn Eccleston
       
      What Lockean concepts appear in the US Declaration of independence?
    • Kay Bradley
       
      The idea that citizens give up some individual freedoms in order to realize greater benefits from living in society.
  • Social contract arguments typically posit that individuals have consented, either explicitly or tacitly, to surrender some of their freedoms and submit to the authority of the ruler or magistrate
    • Carolyn Eccleston
       
      What does it mean to submit tacitly? Does the US Declaration of independence require tacit submission?
    • Carolyn Eccleston
       
      I don't know. What do you thInk?
    • Kay Bradley
       
      Not the Declaration of independence because that did not establish a social contract, but yes the Constitution and the system of law, The submission is tacit because each generation does not revise the social contract that is spelled out in the Constitution and the corpus of laws. Therefore, each generation that wants to live in the US must accept the existing social contract.
    • Robert Vigliotti
       
      According to Hobbes, whenever we benefit from the conditions of security and the goods that are only possible through the social contract, we have consented to the social contract, which includes obedience to the sovereign, even though we did not give explicit consent.
  • legitimacy of the authority of the state over the individual

What happened to America's teens when coronavirus disrupted high school? - 10 views

  • biggest challenge of the pandemic was not that i was depressed but just, every day became the same thing. it kind of became, like, boring and saddening because this isn’t what i’m used to.
