Using the Right Graphics to Spruce up Your eLearning Engagement: Series1 “A picture is worth a thousand words” aptly characterizes that a complex idea can be conveyed with just a single graphic. Visualization makes it possible to absorb large amounts of data quickly which shows why we happily share a child’s first drawings and cards with our friends and family. One of the many Cognitive Biases is the Picture Superiority Effect which states that concepts that are learned by viewing pictures are more easily and frequently recalled than concepts that are learned by viewing their written word form counterparts. Auditory images and motor images help memory. Effective eLearning deliverables require more than just text and a few random graphics.
6 Alternatives To Bloom's Taxonomy For Teachers - This post is updated from an article we published in April. At the end of the day, teaching is about learning, and learning is about understanding. And as technology evolves to empower more diverse and flexible assessments forms, constantly improving our sense of what understanding looks like–during mobile learning, during project-based learning, and in a flipped classroom–can not only improve learning outcomes, but just might be the secret to providing personalized learning for every learner. This content begs the question: why does one need alternatives to the established and entrenched Bloom’s? So with apologies to Bloom (whose work we covered recently), we have gathered five alternatives to his legendary, world-beating taxonomy, from the TeachThought Simple Taxonomy, to work from Marzano to Fink, to the crew at Understanding by Design. Six Facets of Understanding with examples
Accompagnement à distance des apprenants Si le « stage » de formation impliquant le rassemblement d’un groupe restreint (5 à 20 personnes) constitue encore une des formes les plus répandues de l’accès à la formation professionnelle, si les universités s’ingénient encore et toujours à investir dans l’immobilier et la construction de vastes amphis, le développement des formules de formation à distance et hybrides tant initiale que continue préfigure notre futur proche où l’unité de temps et de lieu, le regroupement des apprenants en un espace physique, dit d’apprentissage (en fait, le plus souvent d’enseignement), ne seront qu’une étape remarquable mais révolue de l’évolution des formes éducatives. A cet égard, le nouveau cadre défini par la loi sur la formation professionnelle du 7 mars 2014 constitue une avancée prometteuse. De nombreux facteurs poussent au changement mais je n’en évoquerai ici que deux qui me paraissent les plus puissants. Les besoins de formation sont en constante progression. Proposition 01.
Take Action: Verbs That Define Bloom’s Taxonomy Bloom’s Taxonomy gets an active makeover in this infographic, which provides a way to think about how the actions involved in a class assignment might be categorized in the schema. Mia MacMeekin made this and many other interesting infographics, which can be found on her website, An Ethical Island. Check out the original link to the infographic.

Les secrets des bons cours en ligne Combien pour développer un nouveau cours ? Pour la plupart des institutions, le choix de développer un nouveau cours représente un risque financier. Que ce cours soit populaire s’impose. Quand la production du cours est subventionnée ou est une affaire de passion bénévole, on ne se soucie guère de sa rentabilité, mais on appréciera quand même la reconnaissance publique. Quel est le point commun des cours à succès ? Jeanine O’Neill-Blackwell a rencontré plusieurs créateurs de cours en ligne qui ont généré des revenus de plus de 100 000 $ et elle-même en a produit qui ont atteint les millions en revenus. Les cours à succès : Résolvent un problème très spécifique. Fondamentalement, il s’agit de fournir une réponse aux questions que votre clientèle se pose pour qu’elle obtienne des résultats concrets. Ces quatre caractéristiques rejoignent celles qui ont été recueillies auprès de milliers d’étudiants de Moocs et de cours en ligne. Références
14 Bloom's Taxonomy Posters For Teachers 14 Brilliant Bloom’s Taxonomy Posters For Teachers by TeachThought Staff Bloom’s Taxonomy is a useful tool for assessment design, but using it only for that function is like using a race car to go to the grocery–a huge waste of potential. In an upcoming post we’re going to look at better use of Bloom’s taxonomy in the classroom, but during research for that post it became interesting how many variations there are of the original work. The follow simple, student-centered Bloom’s graphics were created by helloliteracy! The following “Bloom’s pinwheel” comes from Kelly Tenkley and ilearntechnology.com:

4 Strategies For Teaching With Bloom's Taxonomy 4 Strategies For Teaching With Bloom’s Taxonomy by TeachThought Staff Bloom’s Taxonomy can be a powerful tool to transform teaching and learning. By design, it focuses attention away from content and instruction, and instead emphasizes the “cognitive events” in the mind of a child. And this is no small change. For decades, education reform has been focused on curriculum, assessment, instruction, and more recently standards, and data, with these efforts only bleeding over into how students think briefly, and by chance. This stands in contrast to the characteristics of the early 21st century, which include persistent connectivity, dynamic media forms, information-rich (digital and non-digital) environments, and an emphasis on visibility for pretty much everything. Using Bloom’s Taxonomy In The 21st Century: 4 Strategies For Teaching 1. There is nothing wrong with lower levels of Bloom’s taxonomy. 2. 3. 4. Conclusion Thinking isn’t any different in 2014 than it was in 1214.
Technology SAMR Model for Administrators - Part 1: Staff Presentations The introduction of wireless networks and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) programs in classrooms has increased the demand for teachers to effectively utilize technology worldwide. We have seen an emphasis placed on technology-centered professional development to ensure that classroom educators are best prepared for these challenges. Throughout this process, teachers may feel that they are at the forefront of professional development while administrators may feel a little behind the power curve. Throughout this series, I will focus on the Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition (SAMR) model highlighting different tasks that school-based administrators may face during the school year. These tasks will be broken down and explained using the SAMR model in the following order: Part 1: Staff Presentations Part 2: Community Interaction Part 3: File Management Part 4: Classroom Evaluations Part 5: Staff Input Lead by Example Staff Presentations Determine the Purpose Substitution
Bloom’s Taxonomy & The iPad The iPad – A Device To… Create Despite Steve Jobs having declared the iPad as a device for consuming media, students at Zeeland Public Schools (ZPS) continue to create engaging papers, presentations and multi-media products to demonstrate their deep understanding of the curriculum. Pic Collage, Story Creator, Corkulous, Scribble Press, Videolicious, Educreations, Evernote, Haiku Deck, and iMotion HD are just a small sampling of the amazing apps students at every grade level are using to synthesize their understanding. Consume Not only are students creating on the iPad, but teachers are generating their own products for their classes to consume. Collaborate & Communicate Collaboration and communication go hand-in-hand, and the 1:1 technology initiative at ZPS fosters these skills. Critical Thinking Metacognition and critical thinking reach new heights as our teachers challenge learners to evaluate their own work, that of their peers, and even that of people in other countries.
