I found a video of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi explaining flow theory.

This video is about extrinsic and intrinsic motivation. I can advise you to watch it, because it makes what he says clear with drawings. Also he is talking about a research which has surprising results.

Autonomy and performing purposeful, sophisticated jobs is more important to people than earning a lot of money. Good research results.

This is a short video about the key points of CSCL.

This video is about what DBR is about and how a good DBR occurs and so on.

The video explains the necessity of transition of traditional learning classroom into 21st century learning space and clarifies the concepts of flipped classroom and blended classroom. And the importance of application of design-based research on the creation of blended learning classroom is underlined as well.

Even if someone would be an expert, the things that he can do have a boundary. Do not expect impossible thing from experts. this video is a good example for this.

The first problem is defined by Dan Lortie in The Apprenticeship of Observations (1975) as being acquainted with the task of teaching.The professor on the video emphasizes that in the countries where immagrants are most successful, teachers spend 50% of their work planning lessons, observing other classes and negotiating about the lessons. She also touches the problem of 'Toxic Environment' of schools for teachers where they gossip about their students and colleagues. She gives a successful school example in which professional development is a part of school culture. Can you list additional problems for teacher expertise faced in schools?

Although sharing ideas and instances about the classroom hours and students can be accepted as components of adult learning for teachers, gossiping about them can be a real barrier to develop on those areas. In my teaching experience, we prohibited the conversations about the negative issues happened in the school.

This video make some advices for teachers about how to implement Learning by design in their school.

This video is an episode from the bakyard science program on yumurcak TV. In this program, children design tools based on their problems by this way, they try to understand some science subjects.

Patricia Benner published a book whose name is Novice to Expert in 1982 and at that book she mentioned 5 levels from novice to experts.
