Framework for 21st Century Learning. SOLO Taxonomy. Awesome Graphic on 21st Century Pedagogy. While I was revisiting the topic of the 21st century pedagogy which I have covered in several posts here in Educational Technology and Mobile Learning, I come across this awesome graph created by our colleague Andrew Churches.
I couldn't find better and more comprehensive graphic than the one below. Andrew did a fantastic work in capturing most of the concepts that make 21st century pedagogy. I know it could have been richer in information if definitions or explanatory snippets were added to some concepts ( like for instance information literacy, media fluency, technology fluency ) but still that does not lesson from its importance as a starting point to ponder on the topic of 21st century pedagogy. Learning by rote: why Australia should not follow the Asian model of education.
Results from the Chinese university entrance exam , the Gaokao, were released last week.
For students, it’s the long culmination of years focusing on tests and learning by rote. Again and again, East Asian countries appear at the top in world education rankings. So the assumption goes, all Australia needs to do is to learn from the “best at tests”, and we, too, could make it up the ladder. This was the fundamental basis of a recent Grattan Institute report into the education systems in Hong Kong, Korea, Shanghai and Singapore.
