Presentation from the Workshop Designing future schools and 21st Century creative teachers - Adil Tugyan

1. Characteristics of 21st Century Learning
What do you think these characteristics are?

2. Learner-Centered
• Rethinks traditional teacher-learner
roles.Learner as data holder,designer and
decision maker.
• Nurtures role of play,informal learning
and creativity.
• Supports wide range of '' academic''
success.
• Defines success in terms that support
learner, not schools or districts.
• Learner benefits from flexible,
diverse,differentiated support models .

3. Media-Driven
•Project,Problem or
Inquiry-based.

4. Personalized
• Learning is personalized by
platform,interest,assesment
results,self-selected pace.

5. Transfer-by-Design
• Learners constantly adapt,revise and
synthesize information, using ''old
learning'' in new, unfamiliar, meaningful
ways.
• iTEC can be a fine and appropriate
examlpe of this aspect in which students
imagine,search,brainstorm and
eventually design things. Students learn
everything by doing the tasks themselves
discovering new horizons with a little
guidance from their tutors at school and
experts out of school by organising design
participatory workshops.

6. Visibly Relevant
• Increased Transparency
• Causing personal or social change,
socially collaborative,visible
products/projects/artifacts;
Natural contexts.
• 21st century learning requires
learners to be aware of their needs
both academically and socially.

7. Data-Rich
• Persistent and ''highly-
consumable'' data and planned
data sources that allow for easy
revision of curriculum,instruction
and resources.

8. Adaptable
• The opposite of scripted and
homogenized.Ownership by all
stake-holders,learnes,teachers etc.
• Responds naturally and
meaningfully to data and emerging
best practices

9. Interdependent
• Little is in isolation.
• Increased in transparency
between schools and local
communities.
• Media and assessment relate;
content areas coverage;
technology supports learning, not
simply instruction.

10. Diverse
• In terms of media,
instructional/assessment
strategies,audience,collaborative
approaches,technology use,data
sources, etc.

we rob them of tomorrow'' John Dewey
