Mind Amplifier: Howard Rheingold And The Value Of Convivial Tools - Forbes - 0 views

  • his is a helpful thought in a society that has placed more attention on the fact of digital technologies (the new iPhone!) than on what we do with them
  • but all technologies, to some degree or another, are enmeshed in what Langdon Winner calls ‘regimes,
  • Design of tools has—as Illich pointed out—been accomplished in the absence of any consideration of their effects on social, cognitive, and political regimes. Designers can be better educated. And so can the users of their tools

  • The old model of learning—the sage on the stage—is being challenged by cooperative forms of co-learning in which teachers act as facilitators and students use the tools available, from search engines to smartphones, to learn collaboratively, with teachers acting as facilitators
  • The whole notion of meta-cognition, of treating attention as a trainable aspect of everyday thought, is a potential new discipline
  • He is developing tools for “knowledge design” that both help individuals capture and manipulate what they know, but that also help connect individual intelligence to different models and sources of knowledge.

    Howard Rheingold has written about the use of digital technologies for learning and other tasks. In particular, the possibility that digital technologies can be mind amplifiers. Tools that enhance our ability to think and learn. Something EDC3100 will touch on in Week 3

Teachers must ditch 'neuromyth' of learning styles, say scientists | Education | The Gu... - 0 views

    An interesting read, science against individual learning styles in schools. I was quite surprised to read this article, I think looking at ICTs it is relevant to share. I would love to hear some other thoughts on this. I believe the use of ICT within the classroom helps us to time and cost efficiently and effectively deliver a multiliterate pedagogy and curriculum which supports individual learning styles. Surely if we can create a classroom that is multiliterate including ICT to support and enhance learning we are able to meet the learning styles of all learners? Would love to hear your thoughts on this. onlinestudymummy

The "Immeasurable" Part 2 - 1 views

  •  
    A blog post that presents a graph giving one representation of where certain skills and knowledge sit along two axes - "difficulty to assess" and "learning in a networked world". The argument is that most assessment in formal education focuses on content knowledge and basic skills.  Rather than on more important but more difficult to assess knowledge and skills. It might not be 100% correct, but it's good food for thought. What are you teaching and assessing in your teaching?  What am I doing?

PLN ideas - 2 views

  •  
    This is a website I came across on Terry Rees blog page http://terryrees.edublogs.org/ . She says one of the most important things for her is to develop a sustainable and quality Personal Learning Network (PLN) with other professionals with which she can share ideas, experiences, thoughts, and seek advice. If you are in need of resources and advice for starting a PLN this may help. Thanks Terry for putting me on to it. Hopefully others will find it useful too.

    I found this clip inspiring as it highlights simple uses of ICTs within the classroom. Prompting further thought of how they could be meaningfully intergrated within the curriculum.
  •  
    I agree with you Rosemary I found this clip very interesting, it has some great ideas. I have used the web quest in two classes on prac. They had some very surprising results about the knowledge that year eleven student have of the world outside the class room, some had no idea were to go to catch a plane or how to get there.
