• Personalisation
• Collaboration
• Experimentation
• Self-reflection
• Teacher self-regulation
• Multistakeholder approach
18. Personalisation
“One size does not fit all”
• Eevery learner is unique. Personalisation is a must! How?
– Offering increased flexibility in learning (choose
which and how many courses you follow, decide yourself on
the order, place, time, and pace of learning)
– Offering tools that help you take most out of your
learning depending on your SRL beliefs,
knowledge and confidence.
(e.g. dashboard, themes-menu)
19. “Alone we are smart, together we are brilliant.”
(S. Anderson)
• It is not just you and your mobile device. It is about a
community.
• The app encourages you to share your experiences
with others. You’ll have the chance to connect to them
on Facebook, and to meet some of them in person.
Collaboration
20. “No one ever learned to play the piano without
exercising.” (Edel Maex)
• That’s why the app invites you to actually try out some
things in your classroom.
• Simply reading the courses most likely won’t lead to
actual changes in your classroom practice.
• Self-reflection is crucial
Experimentation and self-reflection
21. “Practice what you preach”
• When we want our students to self-regulate, we may as
well start with ourselves. Be ready to use your own
self-regulation skills ;-). We’ll walk our talk!
Teacher self-regulation
22. • In order to support your self-reflection, and to
personalise your learning, the app collects some
information about your learning
– example: your beliefs, knowledge and confidence to teach
SRL with your own students
• This information is available also to:
– Teacher educators (if you invite them)
– Policy makers (but only anonymized!)
Multi-stakeholder approach
23. Multi-stakeholder approach
• Why?
– Teacher educators can use the information to
personalise their support to your specific needs and
interests
– Policy makers can use the information to adapt their
policy support to the needs of specific groups of
teachers (e.g. novices) or schools.
