  • Project-based learning is not without its difficulties for both students and teachers. Technology can be employed to support the learning efforts of both students and teachers as they work on their projects.
  • Teachers are concerned about motivation as well as technical issues of thinking and learning.
  • teacher must be concerned with motivation, because this motivational energy will help students processed in the face of challenging lesson material
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Researchers have found substantial evidence that focusing on relatively long term problems that require meaningful engagement with challenging subjects that integrate ideas from a number of diverse disciplines in which is supported by practical and useful technology can help overcome many classroom challenges and prepare students for practical and relevant skills for the future.
  • Problem-based learning at once allows groups of students to collaborate, to apply themselves in real-world challenges that demonstrate the relevance of the material, explore and integrate information from across multiple domains and allow the teacher to adopt the role of facilitator and co-learner rather than as the single point of expertise in the classroom.
  • In this framework, teachers are well employed as a master craftsman who provide just enough scaffolding in order to ensure students can remain on task and productive rather than floundering without guidance.

    ShowMe is an open online learning community where anyone can learn and teach any topic. The iPad app lets you easily create and share video lessons. Chicago Public Schools iPad pilot program teachers use it as formative assessment for daily math problems. Younger grades could use it one on one with parents or any grade to demo how to solve a problem and post it to a blog/tweet it, etc.

    Article about research with college kids textbook buying habits. Contradicts what certain companies are saying about ebook usage. It's not really increasing for college kids. Good points about sharing and expenses!!!

  • the three most common elements I am hearing right now around new and evolving instructional and classroom innovation from teachers and schools involve inquiry, technology and self-regulation
  • Inquiry is based on the belief that understanding is constructed in the process of people working and conversing together as they pose and solve the problems, make discoveries and rigorously testing the discoveries that arise in the course of shared activity.
  • Inquiry is a study into a worthy question, issue, problem or idea
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • There is amazing innovation happening with technology in a number of areas in West Vancouver. The work at Caulfeild Elementary is an example of this, and has been interesting to follow as they have launched their Inquiry based Digitally Enhanced Community (IDEC). Principal Brad Lund is writing a regular blog (here)
  • Dr. Stuart Shanker has brought self-regulation to the masses. He has been a regular presenter in British Columbia, as mentioned in an earlier post on his work  here,
  • The conversations on the elements of inquiry, technology and self-regulation are a marriage of pedagogy and environment. Of course, in a world of increased student ownership and personalization of learning there will likely be more diversity rather than less to what a classroom should look like.
