Dreyfus model of skill acquisition
In the fields of education and operations research , the Dreyfus model of skill acquisition is a model of how students acquire skills through formal instruction and practicing. Brothers Stuart and Hubert Dreyfus proposed the model in 1980 in an influential, 18-page report on their research at the University of California, Berkeley , Operations Research Center for the United States Air Force Office of Scientific Research. [ 1 ] The original model proposes that a student passes through five distinct stages: novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, and expert. [ edit ] The original five-stage modelLearning styles
Learning style is an individual's natural or habitual pattern of acquiring and processing information in learning situations. A core concept is that individuals differ in how they learn. [ 1 ] The idea of individualized learning styles originated in the 1970s, and has greatly influenced education. [ 2 ] Proponents for the use of learning styles in education said that teachers should assess the learning styles of their students and adapt their classroom methods to best fit each student's learning style. Although there is ample evidence for differences in individual thinking and ways of processing various types of information, few studies have reliably tested the validity of using learning styles in education. [ 2 ] Critics say there is no evidence that identifying an individual student's learning style produces better outcomes.
Four stages of competence
In psychology , the four stages of competence , or the "conscious competence" learning model, relates to the psychological states involved in the process of progressing from incompetence to competence in a skill . [ edit ] History Initially described as “Four Stages for Learning Any New Skill”, the theory was developed at the Gordon Training International by its employee Noel Burch in the 1970s. [ 1 ] It has since been frequently attributed to Abraham Maslow , although the model does not appear in his major works. [ 2 ]
What Learning Norms Do not Work
Taking notes during class? Topic-focused study? A consistent learning environment? All are exactly opposite of the best strategies for learning. I recently had the good fortune to interview Robert Bjork , the director of the UCLA Learning and Forgetting Lab, a distinguished professor of psychology, and a massively renowned expert on packing things in your brain in a way that keeps them from leaking out. It turns out that everything I thought I knew about learning is wrong.

10 iPad Apps for Web Curation
Curation vs. Aggregation? Curation is such a necessity these days. The overwhelming wave of information we are exposed to is drowning us in facts and opinion.
Yesterday after receiving my iPad I quickly reached out to my PLN for some suggestions on which apps to download. The key for me is that I will be using this device at work in concert with my administrative team during administrative walk-throughs, observations, and to take notes during meetings (I am sure some other uses will come up as I get more acclimated with the iPad). So after roughly 12 hours here is my quick list of some applications that I feel educational administrators and other educators should have on their device. I will provide a brief description of each if warranted. Also, all the apps listed below are FREE!!!
