  • The thing is, “personalized learning” isn’t our end goal. Creating learners is. Personalized learning is just the approach we use to get there – and we can personalize, personalize, personalize… but at the end of the year, if we haven’t created learners, we haven’t actually achieved our goal.
  • They know how to SELECT a challenge to solve. They know how to CONNECT to people and resources. They know how to REFLECT and share.

    Provide the person with sample challenges to pick from and show how they fit together towards that vision. DO provide reflection tools that help her/him identify their strengths and weaknesses for themselves DON'T just assume the person knows how to write a quality goal. DO create learning networks for people who have similar goals so they can problem solve together. DO help her/him structure their thoughts; DO provide her/him with a non-threatening platform These advises are very illuminating for educators. By saying "sample challenge", teachers are encouraged to using proper scaffolding to prepare student for great challenge. Through "helping to structure their thoughts ", teacher can coach students to analyze their own thinking and prepare them to practice meaningful reflection. And the most vital skills for true learners, is their reflective skills which allow them to analyze their method of learning, knowing their own strength and weakness and make modification to perfect their skills.

  • Our brain pays more attention to stimuli and events that are accompanied by emotions.
  • How we feel about a learning situation often affects attention and memory more quickly than what we think about it.

  • As a professor and as a teacher, we think a lot about how do you teach kids who can't pay attention or are distracted by irrelevancy or don't keep their memory neatly organized? It's a scary, scary thought.
  • So what we're seeing is less of a notion of a big idea carried through and much more little bursts and snippets. And we see that across media, across film, across, in Web sites, this idea of just do a little bit and then you can run away.
  • anytime you switch from one task to another, there's something called the "task switch cost," which basically, imagine, is I've got to turn off this part of the brain and turn on this part of the brain. And it's not free; it takes time.

  • One of the biggest delusions we hear from students is, "I do five things at once because I don't have time to do them one at a time." And that turns out to be false. That is to say, they would actually be quicker if they did one thing, then the next thing, then the next. It may not be as fun, but they'd be more efficient.

    "Something else you can do to keep your brain fit is to take advantage of neuroplasticity. Just as the muscles in your body get stronger when you exercise them, our brains benefit from activities that cause it to change and adapt."

    I came across this online magazine that covers eLearning while looking for information about YouTube as a learning tool. I think it's a good general resource about eLearning and is probably geared more towards the adult/corporate training side of Learning Technologies as opposed to the K-12 education side but could be used either way. I believe it fits well under the Social Cognitive Theory but each individual article may reach into other theories.
