Liesl Groberg, Richard Green – researchED. Ulrich Boser – researchED. Boser’s work for the Center for American Progress examines education, crime, and other social issues. He is currently working on a book about learning, tentatively titled Learning to Learn: Why Being Smart in the Information Age Isn’t Important—and Why Learning Is. Boser has served as a contributing editor for U.S. News & World Report, was a founding editor of the online criminal justice magazine “The Open Case,” and has had his research featured everywhere from “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” to the front page of USA Today. His work on school spending made headlines around the country and helped inspire initiatives to improve the effectiveness of education dollars. Boser is also the author of The Leap: The Science of Trust and Why It Matters, and his articles have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post.

He has also been an Arthur F.

Traditionell matteundervisning på lärarutbildningarna. Den traditionella undervisningen sker inom ramen för ämnesstudierna som av lärarstudenterna ofta upplevs som den tyngsta delen av lärarutbildningen. Ofta läser lärarstudenterna tillsammans med blivande civilingenjörer och andra som kommer att använda matematik på ett annat sätt i sitt yrke. – Undervisningen i ämnesstudierna består av föreläsningar, läroböcker, räkneuppgifter och tentor. Det blir den undervisningsmodellen som studenterna sedan använder sig av i sin egen undervisning i skolan. Lärarstudenterna läser också matematikdidaktik under lärarutbildningen. Där får de får lära sig mera pedagogiskt utvecklade sätt att undervisa i matematik i skolan. – Men den delen av utbildningen får inte samma betydelse för lärarstudenterna. Catarina Player-Koro tror att det beror på att ämnesstudierna upplevs som lärarutbildningens tyngsta och mest krävande del av lärarstudenterna. – Så i praktiken blir det ämnesstudierna som slår igenom.

Catarina Player-Koro och Lena Tyrén: BETT show – en kritisk reflektion. Publicerad av: Olle Holmberg onsdag, mars 19, 2014 · 17 Kommentarer BETT show (British Educational Training and Technology Show) är en årlig gigantisk tillställning som samlar cirka 40000 personer från 100 länder. Av dessa ska 4000 vara svenska lärare som skickats dit av sina respektive kommuner. Resorna organiseras inte sällan av något utbildningsföretag som kommunen köper sin fortbildning från. På mässan finns nästan 700 utställare varav de flesta är kommersiella företag såsom Microsoft, Google, HP, Dell, Acer, Lenovo, Intel och många fler. Det faktum att fortbildning och skolutveckling är nära förknippat med digitaliseringen av skolan kommer därför att vara föremål för en kort reflektion i denna text. På Bett show är tempot högt.

Här är det dags att stanna upp och reflektera över vad vi ser. Varför är då detta bekymmersamt? I vems intresse och vilken kunskap för vem och för vilka syften? Ball, Stephen J. (2012).

Jose Luis Pelaez Inc. /Blend Images/Corbis hide caption itoggle caption Jose Luis Pelaez Inc. /Blend Images/Corbis Back when Grant Hosford's older daughter was in first grade, she signed up for an extracurricular class, building robots with a programmable Lego toy called Mindstorms. "My first reaction was not, 'Oh, I'm going to go build a coding company.' Hosford did go on to be a co-founder of a company called codeSpark. The Foos is part of a trend toward increasing emphasis on code as a fundamental literacy. "A computer science education is literacy for the 21st century," the mayor said at the announcement.

Educators, researchers and entrepreneurs like Hosford are taking that analogy very seriously. Programming Primer To Hosford, this early introduction is key to broadening participation in STEM disciplines. Sam Patterson is a technology integration specialist at a private school in Silicon Valley. Coding for kids makes sense — but it’s going to take more than just classrooms to make it work. Teaching children the basics of coding could have a big payoff if it’s done right. (Marcio Jose Sanchez/AP) Coding has become so popular recently that it’s no wonder that cities are racing to introduce new coding initiatives as a way of establishing themselves as innovation leaders. New York City, for example, is leading the way with a new 10-year, $81 million program called “Computer Science For All” that will make access to a computer science education available in all of the city’s public schools, from elementary school to high school.

Not to be outdone, both Chicago and San Francisco are considering similar initiatives for students. And it’s not just cities that are preparing for the future by embracing coding — it’s becoming a key part in how nations establish themselves as innovation leaders globally. However, there’s a big difference between simply announcing a new program for public schools and actually getting results.

Lisas_C_uppsats_hela.pdf. Adios Ed Tech. Hola something else. I’ve been involved in educational technology since the late 1990′s when I was at Red River College and involved in deploying the first laptop program in Canada. Since that time, I’ve been involved in many technology deployments in learning and in researching those deployments. Some have been systems-level – like a learning management system.

Others have been more decentralized and unstructured – like blogs, wikis, and social media. But there is something different in the ed tech space today than what I have experienced in the past. Most of my career has involved using technology to help people get better access to learning resources and materials, to better connect with each other, to better access formal education, and to improve their teaching practices and pedagogies. I’ve been fortunate to journey with talented folks: Grainne Conole, Stephen Downes, Dave Cormier, Martin Weller, Dragan Gasevic, Shane Dawson, Carolyn Rose, David Wiley, Ryan Baker, and many many others.

Math and Inquiry: The Importance of Letting Students Stumble. For subjects like math and foreign language, which are traditionally taught in a linear and highly structured context, using more open-ended inquiry-based models can be challenging. Teachers of these subjects may find it hard to break out of linear teaching style because the assumption is that students can’t move to more complicated skills before mastering basic ones. But inquiry learning is based on the premise that, with a little bit of structure and guidance, teachers can support students to ask questions that lead them to learn those same important skills — in ways that are meaningful to them. This model, however, can be especially hard to follow in public school classrooms tied to pre-set curricula. Science Leadership Academy, which has an established track record as an inquiry-based school, has just opened a second campus in Philadelphia called the Beeber school, whose teachers are still adapting to the inquiry model.

Katrina Schwartz. Repetition | Principles of Learning. This is perhaps the most intuitive principle of learning, traceable to ancient Egyptian and Chinese education, with records dating back to approximately 4,400 and 3,000 B.C., respectively (Aspinwall, 1912, pp. 1, 3). In ancient Greece, Aristotle commented on the role of repetition in learning by saying “it is frequent repetition that produces a natural tendency” (Ross & Aristotle, 1906, p. 113) and “the more frequently two things are experienced together, the more likely it will be that the experience or recall of one will stimulate the recall of the other” (p. 35). Through repeated pairing of a conditioned stimulus (or stimulus which is to be conditioned) and an unconditioned stimulus (i.e., a stimulus which naturally produces a reflex response) Pavlov was able to condition the reflex to be triggered by the conditioned stimulus (Pavlov et al., 1928, p. 23).
