    What a great resource. My students are terrified of writing and this website can help them overcome that. We are using Book Creator in our class and students love the digital aspect. Maria Tovo

    "At university you are expected to learn independently; this means taking responsibility for your own study. Many of the academic skills you are expected to use whilst at university will be new to you. Some of the skills you will need to develop are: students studying Reading and Note-making Research & Evaluation Critical Thinking Skills Writing Skills Referencing Groupwork & Presentations Exams Skills"

      I find that this statement is particularly true of myself and my learners. We tend to learn well in a particular mode when we first learn about how that mode works best, have it modeled, practice it. When we have left that mode and come back to it after having left it for a while (two weeks or more), we tend to need more guidance with that mode on how to use it effectively.  Like everything else in teaching, model, model, model and everything in moderation. 
  • We’ve always skimmed newspapers more than we’ve read them, and we routinely run our eyes over books and magazines to get the gist of a piece of writing and decide whether it warrants more thorough reading

      This is a really good point to make to those colleagues that are tech. unsaavy, hesitant, or unwilling because it "makes us" not as deep of readers.

      As somebody said on the discussion board...everything is better in moderation. I think the internet has many pros as well as cons as evident by this article.

  • 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.
