    Another interesting study about expertise similar to the video related to chess players " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWuJqCwfjjc&feature=player_embedded ". Should we use and extend the experts points of view while producing new technological tools for learning?

    I liked the definition of expertise as "acquisition of schemas" or mental structure. We talked about these in our discussion through organization of knowledge and chunking.

What are your motivations of doing masters or PhD? - 3 views

  •  
    I think that sharing our motivations of pursuing masters or PhD would be interesting. The attached video is a fun video of getting a Phd in humanities.
  • ...6 more comments...
  •  
    I will start first :) The best motivation why I want to hold a Phd is I like learning. So, I think that the more I learn, the more I will teach others.
  •  
    but mine sounds same as yours :) learning more and more in the fields I enjoy and meeting different people and discovering their repertoire and stories are my main motivations.
  •  
    I agree, one must be really really really motivated take such a daunting task. This is hard work, a journey with ups and downs, yet always rewarding during and at the end of the process. My main motivation for doing a PhD was discovering my own "self" and simply "the world". The more I try to uncover some unknowns about the world the more I give meaning to my existence.
  •  
    When I had my undergrduate degree I was planning to work all my life long but I realized that spending a year without learning in an academic environment was a disaster. I come from another city and travel on buses just to learn and make my life, job and environment understandable and meaningful. I am doing this as I can inspire, inform, help teachers and my students with what I gain through PhD as it helps me broaden my vision.
  •  
    I think we all, Phd sts, are crazy people :-)) We have such intrinsic motivation that we can spend hours and hours on reading, writing, searching etc. People around me are always asking me how I can handle all these stuff and I sometimes ask myself the same question...And the only answer I come up with is that we all have the feeling of hunger for knowledge and nothing feeds it.
  •  
    I agree with Şermin that we are really crazy though I am not in PhD level. People around me keep saying that "Are you mad? Why are you doing this?" It depends according to situations but I believe that (as you do) this is a voluntary work. We want to learn something, explore different disciplines and so on. It is a bit a part of self-actualization, I think.
  •  
    While I was working at a primary school, one of my students asked me:" Öğretmenim, neden hala okuyorsunuz? Tatile falan gitseniz daha iyi bence:)" I had two day off for graduate courses, that's why he thought I would go on a holiday:) (Or maybe I looked tired:) People who do not know me very well question my motivation for being a Phd student. But, those who know me well think that I should engage in academic studies. Interestingly, whenever I feel demotivated, they try to motivate me:) I love searching, learning new things and sharing them with people around me. Şermin is right: it is the hunger for knowledge and it is the most effective motive for graduate students:)
  •  
    My motive for doing Master is to feel competent in my expertise field .But the main thing underlying is like everybody else is to learn and look for the best.I have always wondered `What is the best practice in teaching?` `How can I improve my skills both personally and professionally? Quest for the answers are keeping me motivated.

Should we have "expert teachers" at schools? - 0 views

  •  
    A couple of yeras ago, Turkish Ministry of Education declared that some teachers wold be appointed as "experts". At the very beginning, some teachers got the title of "experts"; however, the ministry gave up the idea after a very short time. This can be a topic to be discussed at our class this week. Some of the questions that can be raised: * What is an expert teacher? * Do we need experts at our school? * How should the teachers get the title of "expert", by an exam or by working time? I added a Turkish forum where people discussed the expert teachers at schools.
  •  
    It can be a good discussion topic, well suited for the week.

    What is the place of 'talent' in the topic of expertise ? Even The making of an expert says that in addition to talent of Mozart he has a father,skilled composer, facilitating him which makes Mozart: Mozart. Then the question comes, innate talent does really need an 10000 hours to become an expert or can ordinary people be an expert with 20 hours!

Pos and Cons of Cognitive intelligent tutoring systems - 2 views

    thank you for the source, I liked the way it's organized also, one pro and then one con :)
  •  
    It pushed me to think about both pro and cons of it. Thank you İbrahim.
  •  
    Thanks for the source:-) As far as I understood, some benefits of these programs are based on some assumptions. For instance, these programs assume that learners are autonomous. That's why they are mostly useful with adults. Or the expertise of the online tutor. The assumption behind is that they are better than the ones in the classroom. Therefore, each benefit brings its risks...
  •  
    Thank you İbrahim, I think the con about distraction is very important (It requires more discipline, Your child would have to keep his focus on the screen without getting distracted by emails, IM's or Facebook.) Any ideas to prevent getting distracted?
  •  
    For me it is important to be aware of that in foreign language instruction, the movement of your mouth can be really important in getting pronunciation right. That's harder to teach online. If the subject or homework assignment specifically requires the child to write on paper, it's much harder for an online tutor to read along with the student. So it works better for some subjects

Problem Solving Knowledge Transfer: An Expert's Perspective - 1 views

    Here is another research that comes up with the findings indicating being an expert does not mean to teach effectively because of expertise-base biases. So, expert teachers make difference thanks to their pedagogical knowledge, don't they?

Practice Makes Perfect - Ellen DeGeneres learns dancing - 3 views

  •  
    We now know that practice is a key determiner on the way for being an "expert". In this video, Ellen learns how to dance with constant practice. Please check also how experts behave in the video because we know that being expert does not mean being able to teach. Again, enjoy it! :) Warning: There is a lot of exclaiming in the video and you are recommended to turn the volume down while watching it. I write this because I did not do so. :)

    While reading the article, I felt surprised because it was published in 1986 but he was sharing really innovative ideas about expertise. I hope you'll enjoy it....

    Sermin, I followed similar nominating strategy to identify expert online teachers in my dissertation. Berliner's question is rather important here: How do we identify expert teachers? What should be the selection criteria as well as method?
