21st Century Schools or 21st Century Learning? Even this picture is way too old…We need to start having focused conversations on this topic. Just let me start off by saying that the term “21st Century Learning” still drives me crazy. If you think about it, have we progressed in our thoughts about what learning should look like and could be in the last 10 years? What about in the next 50 years? Will “21st Century Learning” be the same or will we still promote the same skills? With that being said, for the sake of discussion, I will use the terms. I had a great discussion with some educators the other day about the idea of “21st Century Schools vs. 21st Century Learning”. This has been really weighing on my mind a lot since I have seen a lot of iPads in schools in a 1:1 environment. Pretty crazy since they had an online textbook to keep them entertained The mass purchase of devices for schools is happening way too much inwithout conversations with educators about what learning should be happening in the classroom.

A Great New Collection of Educational Posters for Teachers Educational Technology and Mobile Learning is back to you with a list of some awesome inspirational posters that you as a teacher would really enjoy and hopefully hang on your classroom wall. They can also be equally inspirational for your students. I am definitely adding these posters to the section we created here under the title : `` Educational Posters for Teachers ``. The importance of posters lies in the fact that they give us a pause from whatever we are engaged in and take us into a journey ,no matter how long or short it is, into the world of meditation and contemplation. The benefits of these two thinking strategies are enormous, isn`t it the ultimate goal of education to bring up critical thinkers who will be ready to process information before taking it in rather than rote memorizing it ? Here is what we have for you for today : Please remember to pay tribute to Poster Street which is the source from which have taken these posters. 1- John Dewy Poster Click Here to Download It
21st C - Teacher Portfolio: Reflections on Sustainability from Huffpost Arts and Culture - Penny Paintings - 18.9.12 - artwork by Jacqueline Lou Skaggs In tune with the virtual realities of today could art become a virtual re-cycling depot? REFLECTIONFrom the Australian Curriculum ACARA:Sustainability addresses the ongoing capacity of Earth to maintain all life...

Here is a new genre of art - COINED ART? Sustainability is not all about growing plants effectively but about creatively re-cycling the harvest of our society so that nothing becomes "waste". Now about those plastic bags....hmmmmm To teach is to keep learning
совместное обучение Современные электронные технологии, всё больше проникая в общественную жизнь, постепенно меняют её саму, а также привычные и понятные нам социальные практики. Пожалуй, наиболее значимыми с этой точки зрения являются именно сетевые технологии. По словам одного из ведущих исследователей влияния этих технологий на общество Говарда Рейнгольда, «новые социальные формы последнего десятилетия XX века выросли из предоставляемой Интернетом возможности устанавливать общественные связи многих со многими», а «новые социальные формы начала XXI века существенно повысят значимость общественных сетей» [1, c. 16]. Веб-технологии наполнили наше окружение, открывая новые стороны повседневного общения людей и превращая этот процесс в повсеместный и непрерывный. В чём-то схожие трансформации происходят и в сфере образования.
