      Many of these Brain Targets require a minimum of change in the classroom

      Technology lends itself to timely feedback.
  • Usable classroom translation: Give students the big picture; visually represent the connections between previous knowledge and new learning; indicate relationships among learning goals.
  • Usable classroom translation: make regular changes in your classroom such as seating arrangements, wall displays
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • Usable classroom translation: stress impedes learning
  • Usable classroom translation: Creativity can be taught but it builds on a body of content knowledge being mastered. Interweave information and thinking in all content areas; show real world applications, move away from simple, single-answer problems to encourage divergent solutions.

      I think this is an important piece - being able to apply info. is true learning.

      Interesting targets to teach the way the brain learns...
  • When you’re standing in front of a classroom of students who’re not quite sure they even want to be in your class, much less pay attention to what’s being said
  • Brain Target 2: Creating the Physical Learning Environment
  • Brain Target 1: Establish the emotional climate for learning
  • Brain Target 3: Designing the Learning Experience
  • Neuroscience: The brain feels before it thinks. The amygdala (think fight/flight) receives stimuli 40 milliseconds
  • Neuroscience: The brain craves novelty. Posner & Rothbart, 2007); lighting, background noise impact on attention;
  • Neuroscience behind it: The brain looks for patterns between known and unknown information (Posner & Rothbart
  • Brain Target 4: Teaching for Mastery
  • Neuroscience behind it: In order for information to be retained it must make its way from short-term to long-term memory.
  • Brain Target 5: Teaching for the Extension Neuroscience behind it: The brain is plastic. Significant changes occur in the brain due to repeated sensory experience (Fu & Zuo,2011, Karmarkar & Dan, 2006)
  • Brain Target 6: Evaluating Learning Neuroscience behind it: Assessments provides feedback that informs and motivates students; retrieval of information recruits memory systems, reinforcing memory for that information.

      Making connections between new and old information is so integral to helping students learn.

      Charter schools are an attempt to address Illich's vision, but these are often more focused on schooling and less a trasformation of schools
  • I intend to show that the inverse of school is possible: that we can depend on self-motivated learning instead of employing teachers to bribe or compel the student to find the time and the will to learn; that we can provide the learner with new links to the world instead of continuing to funnel all educational programs through the teacher.
  • schools are fundamentally alike in all countries, be they fascist, democratic or socialist, big or small, rich or poor.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • his identity of the school system forces us to recognize the profound world-wide identity of myth, mode of production, and method of social control, despite the great variety of mythologies in which the myth finds expression.
  • The alternative to dependence on schools is not the use of public resources for some new device which "makes" people learn; rather it is the creation of a new style of educational relationship between man and his environment. To foster this style, attitudes toward growing up, the tools available for learning, and the quality and structure of daily life will have to change concurrently.

connectivism classroom digital learning

shared by anonymous on 03 Jun 13 - No Cached
  • Emerging online classrooms mirror digital, distributed modes of connectivity made possible through the Web and information and communication technology.
  • “the thesis that knowledge is distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that learning consists of the ability to construct and traverse those networks.”
  • Knowledge does not exist “in the heads” of learners or instructors but through the variety of connections established amongst students, instructors, and technologies. With connectivism, static student-teacher roles become as fluid as the technology that mediates them, and the process of learning becomes more important than the final product.

      This is a good math blog... however it hasn't been updated in a couple of months.
  • o Learn Math.
  • Last week I posted some ideas for a bulletin board I was working on and want to thank everyone who gave me their opinion. I was really deciding between the last two and overwhelmingly most people liked the last one, which was what I was leaning towards. It had been titled "What is Standards Based Grading?" but I loved Sarah Hagan's title of "How to Learn Math."
