The document provides an overview of new pedagogies for deep learning in the digital age. It discusses how education needs to change to prepare students for jobs in a world where machines are performing many cognitive tasks previously done by humans. Deep learning focuses on teaching 21st century skills like creativity, collaboration and problem solving. It emphasizes student-centered learning through projects and real-world problems. The document argues that deep learning cuts across subjects and assesses students on authentic outputs.

5. What’s this The New
Pedagogies for DeepLearning
(NPDL) is about?

6. This is a story about what I have learned about
deep learning pedagogy and it all begins in a
soot-filled city, a long time ago.

7. In the wake of the second industrial revolution,
fuel powered digging machines replaced the toil of
hardworking labourers on farms and cities.

8. Productivity increased and business costs
and the labour force decreased.

9. As physical machines replaced physical bodies
threatening high unemployment, industrialised
governments invested in compulsory education to
prepare future generations for a new world of pen
pushing and people management.

10. A century on, a similar scene is being rehearsed
on the digital stage. Thinking machines are
steadily taking over repetitive cognitive tasks
performed by human beings.

11. Rapid wide spread unemployment is
anticipated if we don’t retrain our society to
flourish in the digital world.

12. Yet education has not responded briskly enough,
producing students for a bygone age of fact
collecting, people management and compliance.

13. We no longer live in a world where those skills are adequate
and we are briskly moving to a world where they are
increasingly irrelevant. Physical machines have taken most
manual labour work. Now thinking machines are steadily
taking over repetitive cognitive tasks. In the globalised world,
many administrative tasks are being outsourced to the
cheapest labour abroad.

14. As traditional repetitive jobs are automated
and globalised, the economy cries out for people
that can use their expertise to find and solve
problems with the tech tools of the Age.

15. An obsessive emphasis on standardised tests
and high stakes exams has skewed the
curriculum focus towards skills we can easily
assess and computers can replicate.

16. The very things computers can’t do remain
largely untaught and untested, leaving our
children vulnerable to skill obsolescence.

17. If we want our children to lead meaningful work-
lives we must change our approach to schooling.
We need a new pedagogy.

18. This new pedagogy must compel students to
attend school and provide opportunities and
experiences that homes cannot easily replicate.

19. Some educators are calling this rejoinder to traditional
learning, Deep Learning. Although an awkward term, in
the absence of another, it’s pragmatic to rally behind it.

20. NPDL is not quite old and not quite new; instead, it can be
understood as a much needed synthesis of pedagogies that
are well placed to support students learning in and for a a
fast paced, disruptive-tech rich world.

21. NPDL is an approach to teaching and learning that
emphasizes 21st century competencies, student centred
learning, inquiry dispositions, co-construction of knowledge,
learning through projects, higher order thinking, real world
problem solving, relevant assessment and technologies that
accelerate and enhance learning.

they learn and how they learn

24. One way to understand NPDL is as a response to the
legacy pedagogies – skill and drill, lecture and
broadcast, regurgitation of information - that worked
for late 19th and early 20th century industrial
economies. These economies wanted students that
were compliant, respectful of procedure, able to retain
and regurgitate information and had basic skills in
numeracy and literacy.

25. What does deep learning
look like to you?

26. How could timetables and school structures
should support deep learning and bear a greater
resemblance to the best workplaces?

27. How could the organisation of student learning
cohorts should better reflect student competence
and interest?
