Need a Job? Invent It - NYTimes.com - 1 views

  • “We teach and test things most students have no interest in and will never need, and facts that they can Google and will forget as soon as the test is over,” said Wagner. “Because of this, the longer kids are in school, the less motivated they become. Gallup’s recent survey showed student engagement going from 80 percent in fifth grade to 40 percent in high school. More than a century ago, we ‘reinvented’ the one-room schoolhouse and created factory schools for the industrial economy. Reimagining schools for the 21st-century must be our highest priority. We need to focus more on teaching the skill and will to learn and to make a difference and bring the three most powerful ingredients of intrinsic motivation into the classroom: play, passion and purpose.”
  • “Teachers,” he said, “need to coach students to performance excellence, and principals must be instructional leaders who create the culture of collaboration required to innovate.
  • “Finland is one of the most innovative economies in the world,” he said, “and it is the only country where students leave high school ‘innovation-ready.’  They learn concepts and creativity more than facts, and have a choice of many electives — all with a shorter school day, little homework, and almost no testing

  • All students should have digital portfolios to show evidence of mastery of skills like critical thinking and communication, which they build up right through K-12 and postsecondary.
  •  My generation had it easy. We got to “find” a job. But, more than ever, our kids will have to “invent” a job. (Fortunately, in today’s world, that’s easier and cheaper than ever before.) Sure, the lucky ones will find their first job, but, given the pace of change today, even they will have to reinvent, re-engineer and reimagine that job much more often than their parents if they want to advance in it. If that’s true, I asked Wagner, what do young people need to know today?

Networked Student - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    Uploaded on Nov 26, 2008 The Networked Student was inspired by CCK08, a Connectivism course offered by George Siemens and Stephen Downes during fall 2008. It depicts an actual project completed by Wendy Drexler's high school students. The Networked Student concept map was inspired by Alec Couros' Networked Teacher. I hope that teachers will use it to help their colleagues, parents, and students understand networked learning in the 21st century. Anyone is free to use this video for educational purposes. You may download, translate, or use as part of another presentation. Please share.

Tips for Sharing Great Open Educational Content | MindShift - 1 views

  • GOOD CONTENT COMES FROM PERSONAL PASSION.
  • Maybe a particular unit gets you enthused.
    • Lindsay Clark
       
      1 per term, 2 per year. Teachers create a course out of there favorite unit. Syndication on iTunes U facilitated by Lindsay but creation of resource on Spot/SpotX up to teacher and students. THINKbuds pulls from Spot/X onto own platform and gets directed to by iTunes U. Public commentary enabled for 2-way dynamic.
    • Julie Lindsay
       
      Yes, this is a start, but we need to go a lot further than this. As discussed at our meeting today, the real learnign takes place when classrooms build a 'project' or collabroation and include the shared the content AND then co-create something meaningful together.
