Let's go back in time
What do we see?
Teacher-centered
instruction
Memorization and drills
Teacher as the major source
of knowledge
Leaders and educators of
their students' school life
The ultimate unchallenged
authority
The ruler, the master and
the controller
What do we see?
Teacher = Feeder
The main source for
information
And the vision of the world
Students in the 21st
century
How should then factual
knowledge be transmitted
in the 21st century?
And where is real
learning taking place?
21st century students have
to:
1) Be independent and self-reliant
2) Be flexible and creative
3) Construct their own learning
How do we apply all this?
Teamwork
Sugata Mitra
Experiments show that children in unsupervised
groups are capable of answering questions
many years ahead of the material they're
learning in school. In fact, they seem to enjoy the
absence of adult supervision, and they are very
confident of finding the right answer.

En invierno nevaba mucho, pero en verano
hacía mucho calor.

Seneca
By learning we teach
Leader in learning by teaching
1) Research shows that teaching is a
fruitful way to learn
2) We have to design innovative ways for
young people to engage in instruction
How do we do all this?
1) Guide them
What is guidance?

Constructivism
2) Exploit and explore technology

Howard
Gardner

intelligences
4) Enhance reality
5) Welcome error and learn from it
6) Unleash empathy
“if schools are involved in intellectual development,
they are inherently involved in emotional development”
“A student’s emotions coming into the class affect the
way, and how much they learn. Educators must be
able to connect to, and understand their students in
order to best serve those students' needs”
C. Hinton
School in the 20th century was about uniformity, standardisation and
synchronization of behaviour. Children were put through by the state to
ensure they became compliant to authority, inculcated into the skills of
reading, writing and numeracy, and systematically instructed.
This was not education. It was indoctrination.
"Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he
could have discovered for himself, that child is kept from
inventing it and consequently from understanding it
completely."
Jean Piaget
