Sugata Mitra on why children need teachers, autonomy and technology - PP117 It was a privilege and a pleasure this week to talk to world-renowned educational thinker Sugata Mitra about his work and his thoughts on an unusually wide range of educational issues. Sugata Mitra is Professor of Educational Technology at the School of Education, Communication and Language Sciences at Newcastle University, England. You may well know his ‘Hole in the Wall’ experiment, which involved giving access to computers and the internet to children and seeing what happened. This led to the ‘School in the Cloud’ and Sugata won the TED Prize in 2013 for this presentation: Rather than focus exclusively on his own work, we decided to ask Sugata questions about a wide range of current educational issues and his answers were fascinating! @pivotalpodcast @pivotalpaul I’ve an external observation this week (Thursday).

The value of a liberal arts education in the modern world — Quartz College is supposed to help young people prepare for the future. But as headlines warn that automation and technology may change—or end—work as we know it, parents, students, and universities are grappling with a new question: How do you educate a new generation for a world we can’t even imagine? A recent Pew Research Center survey of 1,408 technology and education professionals suggested that the most valuable skills in the future will be those that machines can’t yet easily replicate, like creativity, critical thinking, emotional intelligence, adaptability and collaboration. In short, people need to learn how to learn, because the only hedge against a fast-changing world is the ability to think, adapt and collaborate well. But many American college students may not be learning them at all. But perhaps instead of reinventing higher education, we can give students what they need for the future by returning to the roots of liberal arts.

The best means of learning has always been experience.” -- Roger Schank Engines for Education, a non-profit founded by Roger Schank, was formed in 2002 to create new learning environments to replace out-dated and wrong-headed educational notions. The Problem: What and how schools teach Why is it that children in the United States go to school for six-plus hours a day for twelve years and the result of the experience is: Why is it that students ultimately get themselves trained and employed in a wide range of jobs and careers, but for the twelve years they are formally educated, they all study the same set of courses (or very close to it)? There are numerous problems with the way that schools attempt to teach students in the United States and most places around the globe. What schools teach

Seven Top Authoring Tools by Joe Ganci “You choose the tools you need depending on the instructional design you need to implement, the venues to which you need to deliver, your budget and schedule, and other factors. I hope this table helps you to reach your eLearning goals.” Recently The eLearning Guild published a research report written by yours truly, entitled Rapid eLearning Authoring: Top Tools, in which I analyzed the results of the continuous surveys to which thousands of Guild members respond. Following the publication of that report, I thought it would make sense to take the seven tools that survey respondents reported using the most and compare their features for you. However, it’s important to note that not all apples are the same: two applications may claim that they allow you to create quizzes, but one may let you create much more powerful quizzes than the other. The top-seven tools that people reported using, in order of most use to least, are: The categories I use in the table include: The table appears below.
