Taylor & Francis Online :: Formative assessment and self‐regulated learning: ... - 0 views

  • Formative assessment and self‐regulated learning: a model and seven principles of good feedback practice
  • can help students take control of their own learning, i.e. become self‐regulated learners. This reformulation is used to identify seven principles of good feedback practice that support self‐regulation.
  • This shift in focus, whereby students are seen as having a proactive rather than a reactive role in generating and using feedback, has profound implications for the way in which teachers organise assessments and support learning.

Teaching Today | How-To Articles | Social Bookmarking - 1 views

  • A social bookmarking site provides a way for students or teachers to save all of their links in one place on the Internet. These links are saved with one or more tags to help find the site in the future.  
  • According to Netcraft, there are more than 100 million Web sites on the Internet. Between 3 to 4 million new Web sites are added every month. How do educators keep this information organized? How do educators and students plod through this morass and separate the good from the bad and the ugly? Social bookmarking provides one way for users to get control of this information.

  • The following tutorial consists of five learning modules. Each module describes a learning theory and how that learning theory can be applied to improving online teaching and training materials. Each module features: a description of a well known learning theory; a practical example of how the theory and related strategies can be applied to a particular instructional objective or web-design problem; and a list of related pedagogical and web-design strategies as researched in the literature. This tutorial has been designed for MDDE 621 students studying in the Masters of Distance Education program at Athabasca University.
  • The primary significance of this hierarchy is to provide direction for instructors so that they can "identify prerequisites that should be completed to facilitate learning at each level" (Kearsley 1994a). This learning hierarchy also provides a basis for sequencing instruction. Gagne outlines the following nine instructional events and corresponding cognitive processes (as cited in Kearsley 1994a): gaining attention (reception) informing learners of the objective (expectancy) stimulating recall of prior learning (retrieval) presenting the stimulus (selective perception) providing learning guidance (semantic encoding) eliciting performance (responding) providing feedback (reinforcement) assessing performance (retrieval) enhancing retention and transfer (generalization)

  • EXAMPLE The following example applies Gagne's nine instructional events: Instructional Objective: Recognize an equilateral triangle (example from Kearsley 1994a). Methodology: Gain attention - show a variety of computer generated triangles Identify objective - pose question: "What is an equilateral triangle?" Recall prior learning - review definitions of triangles Present stimulus - give definition of equilateral triangle Guide learning - show example of how to create equilateral Elicit performance - ask students to create 5 different examples Provide feedback - check all examples as correct/incorrect Assess performance - provide scores and remediation Enhance retention/transfer - show pictures of objects and ask students to identify equilateral triangles.

Bruner's Model of the Spiral Curriculum | Reference.com Answers - 0 views

  • Bruner's model of the spiral curriculum is an element of educational philosophy suggesting that students . should continually return to basic ideas as new subjects and concepts are added over the course of a curriculum.
  • The spiral curriculum theory revolves around the understanding that human cognition evolved in a step-by-step process of learning, which relied on environmental interaction and experience to form intuition and knowledge. In simpler terms, one learns best through the repeated experience of a concept.

JOTS v32n2 - The Pedagogy of Technology Integration - 3 views

  • Using technology to enhance the educational process involves more than just learning how to use specific piece of hardware and software. It requires an understanding of pedagogical principles that are specific to the use of technology in an instructional settings…Pedagogy-based training begins by helping teachers understand the role of learning theory in the design and function of class activities and in the selection and use of instructional technologies. (pp. 2 and 6)
  • In a broad sense, technology integration can be described as a process of using existing tools, equipment and materials, including the use of electronic media, for the purpose of enhancing learning
  • When you go to the hardware store to buy a drill, you don’t actually want a drill, you want a hole, they don’t sell holes at the hardware store, but they do sell drills, which are the technology used to make holes. We must not lose sight that technology for the most part is a tool and it should be used in applications which address educational concerns. (p. 87)

Where is reflection in the learning process? | User Generated Education - 0 views

      This is a good resource as you reflect and prepare your first synthesizing blog.
  • What was your significant learning this past week
  • What did you learn or what was reinforced about yourself? What can you take from the class activities to use in your life outside of class?

  • Critical reflection is an important part of any learning process. Without reflection, learning becomes only an activity — like viewing a reality TV show — which was never meant to have meaning, but was only meant to occupy time.
  • Critical reflection is not meditation, rather it is mediation — an active, conversive, dialectical exercise that requires as much intellectual work as does every other aspect of the learning process, from analysis to synthesis to evaluation. But in reflection, all the learned material can be gathered about, sorted and resorted, and searched through for greater understanding and inspiration
