More pedagogic change in 10 years than last 1000 years - all driven by 10 technology innovations
Pedagogy - one of those words that's used when people want to sound all academic. So let's just call it learning practice. Of one thing we can be sure; teaching does not seem to have changed much in the last 100 years. In our Universities, given the stubborn addiction to lectures, it has barely changed in 1000 years.

Informed by an extensive international and national research base, the Contemporary Learning Schema represents the findings from a research partnership between CEOM and twenty-five primary and secondary schools involved in the Contemporary Learning Research Schools Project and the Leading for Contemporary Learning Project, over a three year period 2006-2008.
The purpose of the Contemporary Learning Schema is to assist leaders and teachers to reflect on their work and to stimulate dialogue around teaching practice and student learning within the context of their school. The schema provides a platform from which a shared language and way of thinking about teaching and learning can be developed within a school community and ultimately across all schools within the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne.
