  •  
    With almost 70,000 followers Vicki Davis was named one of "Twitter's Top 10 Rockstar teachers" by Mashable. Vicki is a full time teacher and IT Director at a small school in Camilla, Georgia. In her words, "my mission is to help you be a better teacher. I'm passionate about helping all teachers reach every student so I write a lot about teaching, staying motivated, and how to connect with other teachers." 'Coolcatteacher' has also been consistently named one of the top 50 blogs in education worldwide. What piqued my interest is her belief in using technology effectively as a teacher.

My Learning Experience - 9 views

  •  
    In the 3 pracs that I have undertaken so far, this is the image the best describes the learning, at least from the teaching perspective that I have found. Most classes have involved the teacher standing up the front, initiating the learning, the discussion or the activity. they often use a whiteboard or more commonly a power-point presentation. This just looks like a classroom that I have been a part of.

Learning with 'e's: Education, schooling and the digital age - 0 views

  • Schooling is where structures are imposed upon learners to make the process more manageable. Behaviour is synchronised, curricula are standardised, and criterion referenced assessment is imposed to quantify achievement.

  •  
    The view of one UK-based teacher educator about the nature of the digital age, the requirements of education in such an age, and the mismatch between those requirements and schooling. It points to some of the tension between the rise of standardised curricula (e.g. the Australian curriculum) where all learning is predefined and the characteristics of the digital age. In particular, suggests some challenges when working within the existing schooling system and attempting to use ICTs to transform student learning.

Reflection increases learning - research findings - 3 views

  •  
    Article reporting on what is apparently the "first empirical test of the effect of reflection on learning". It found that learners given time to reflect performed 18% and 23% better than learners who were not given time to reflect on what they'd learned. The study also found that there was no significant difference between reflecting on what was learned and having to teach it to someone else. I do wonder whether the ability of the learners to reflect played any part in the improvements gained? Would guidance on how to reflect improve performance more? Obvious links to both this course and the learning journal, but also for you to ponder in terms of your own learners.
