Editor's Notes
- Introduction and question for audience – When considering the connected educator it became clear that it was really the connect learner – teacher and learner (everyone is a learner)At your table, agree a definition of connected learning – 2 / 3 minutes There may be several definitions provided by delegates – Definition 1: Connected learning enables pupils to make connections across the curriculum. Teaching around a theme allows pupils to see the relevance of their learning experience and helps them to relate knowledge gained in different learning areas.There is more emphasis on activities and a greater breadth of subject material in a thematic unit as compared to a topic.Look at the content of what you're teaching and make meaningful connections between the content.Important to devise activities that help develop thinking skills and personal capabilities.Teacher directed, inquiry based learning; planned with the learners.The teacher facilitates learning, which is a more motivating role.Connected learning helps learners to be more engaged, gives them ownership over their learning.Encourages creative thinking and problem solving skills. Definition 2: Connectivity relating to constructivist approaches, collaboration, cooperation, sharing of ideas etc.
- Some suggestions as to what connected learning means – delegates likely to have others – can record via twitter?
- Use family tree to encourage thoughts about connectivity (in this case genetic ‘connectivity’ resulting in family characteristics and potentially behavioural inheritance?) – One has to imagine all the other branches that are not on this tree e.g. Only Noah is extended from Adam and Eve – there are other childrenChapter four of Genesis tells of the birth of Cain and Abel, Adam and Eve's first children, while chapter five gives Adam's genealogy further. Later came Seth, and "other sons and daughters" (Genesis 5:4, NIV). Adam lived for 930 years and Eve lived for 929 years.
- Connectivity of neurons – brain function, learning, capabilities, transmission and sharing of information to provide a holistic view Basically, networks are the way things work in the majority, if not all circumstances in the world. Even the individual acting alone is using shred knowledge and experience.
- Learner = student and teacher
- Social bookmarking, blogs, wikis, discussion forums, conferences, image / video sharing, podcasts, chat, Google docsFB, LinkedIn – imagine the connectivity that currently exist in these – already exploiting the Amazon approach by connecting people with similar interests – soon be self-forming groups i.e. ‘There is a group here that you may like to join’ based upon your interests as understood by the SWYouTube’s users upload about two days worth of video per minute – May 20111 day of video per minute just 14 months ago,
- And now connectivity and therefore learning is becoming mobile – anywhere, anytime – lifelong learning? Connected to resources, tutors, collaboration and sharing environmentsLearning anytime, anywhere – at last!
