  • A bit of stress, a bit of ambiguity, and a bit of confusion are healthy contributors to learning. As long as we have a feedback loop where learners can contribute and faculty can respond and adapt, we have the basics in place. Connections are the starting point of all learning. It's so obvious...and therefore so often overlooked. We really need to think about types of connections learners have with each other and content...and ways that we can extend the learning experience by critically analyzing and forming those initial connections.

  • Phonological awareness – a child's ability to detect and use patterns of sound in speech – is one of the early signs of successful development of reading and writing skills. Researchers said the ability to contract, clip and manipulate words for texting relies on good phonological awareness, and that doing so can help develop literacy.
