definitely Sinem :)) you summarized the kid's motivation and situation very well :))

This article presents how much CTS improves the abstract reasoning component of word problem solving in Math. Abstract subtests were not as easy as concrete components. It leads me think again of deep learning with CTS. It is really controversial topic.

Design based learning at home..:D

The video provides a good presentation of design based research with an example. I think it gives insights for our online discussions and in-class activities. I hope you enjoy watching it.

I liked the way they put schemas and give related examples. That made bigger and clearer picture of DBR in my mind, thanks:) It also higlights the importance and reasons of using DBR.

Thank you for posting this video..Quite comprehensive..And a nice coincidence that Dr. Ömer Delialioğlu from CEIT is in reference list.

A nice example of learning by design.

A very good example :-)) I think this supports the idea that projects should have an aim and provide possible solutions to existing problems. As we all know, necessity is the mother of invention. So when we want to engage sts with design activities, we should be realistic and provide them with problems from real life.

"The impact of design thinking in education is two-fold: First, by requiring the use of multiple lenses when looking at a problem, design thinking demonstrates that bringing together seemingly disparate perspectives can often be the key to finding effective solutions.Second, and perhaps more importantly, design thinking emphasizes that collaboration and the use of outside resources are critical to both the learning and problem solving process-a notion that will be valuable to their scholarly, professional and personal lives."

An award winning documentary on design thinking.

Great documentary and really inspiring :) quote from the documentary : I hate the word of 'thinking' cause you are not 'doing'

A virtual crash course in design thinking.

The author here suggests an alternate view and underlines that less structure will bring a lot more learning. The applicability and the feasibility of the design thinking is being questioned.

As a candidate curriculumist, I really like the video how can design a design based learning curriculum. Last seven or six minutes gives a specific example.
