Pl2 co op vs collab learning
This document compares and contrasts cooperative learning and collaborative learning. It defines cooperative learning as an approach where small groups with diverse students work together on assignments and students are responsible for their own learning as well as helping classmates. An example of cooperative learning is the jigsaw technique where each student researches a piece of information and shares it with their group. Collaborative learning is defined as a philosophy where students generate new ideas together and have interdependent roles through respect, shared goals and values. The key differences provided are that cooperative learning focuses on completing assignments while collaborative learning focuses more on the process of working together.
Four pillars of education
This document outlines the four pillars of education according to the Delors Report: learning to know, learning to do, learning to live together, and learning to be. It defines each pillar, with learning to know focusing on gaining general knowledge and learning skills, learning to do emphasizing acquiring occupational and teamwork skills, learning to live together as developing understanding of others and conflict resolution, and learning to be as cultivating individual growth and responsibility. The four pillars form the basis of lifelong education according to the report.
Lifelong learning 10 12 2015
The document discusses strategies for teaching adult learners based on adult learning theories. It notes that enrollment of students over age 25 in college has risen significantly in recent years. Effective teaching strategies for adult learners include self-directed learning, where instructors take a facilitator role and learners apply their life experiences. Situative or experiential learning allows drawing from past experiences through activities like role playing. Narrative learning involves storytelling of historical events to help learners relate information to their own experiences.
Faculty Advising In A Learner by Maura Reynolds
This article explores issues of concern for all faculty-based advising situations (not small colleges alone). May we continue to recognize our similarities and acknowledge (but not focus on) our differences; we have much to learn from each other.
Social constructivism
This document discusses social constructivism and its key dimensions. Social constructivism is a theory that emphasizes social aspects of learning and suggests that knowledge is constructed through discussion and interaction with others. It has become influential in education. Some dimensions discussed are sociocultural learning theory, the classroom as a community of learners, cognitive apprenticeship, and situated cognition.
Social needs of the learners
This document discusses the importance of understanding learners' social backgrounds and diversity. It explains that social context refers to the specific social settings and unique meanings people assign within a group. Understanding learner diversity means recognizing each individual's uniqueness in emotional, social, and motivational readiness to learn. Vygotsky's social learning theory holds that learning is a social process where we assist each other, and teachers can help students learn within their zone of readiness by providing social assistance. The social nature of knowledge acquisition is that individuals construct meanings through social interaction and activity in social settings. Therefore, for teachers it is important to understand learners' social needs to prepare them for learning and achieve outcomes.
Learning in the Workplace
Studies have shown that adult learning occurs best when tasks are purposeful and can be immediately implemented, resulting in improved employee performance. Moreover, learner motivation is greater when existing personal experience and/or interest is an integral factor in course operation. Courses need to invite the learner to maximize understanding of course theories, concepts, and facts by recasting and relating his or her experience with those theories, concepts, and facts, culminating in the employment of new performance-enhancing skills. This presentation briefly outlines the best practices that are to be met to enhance and support Learning in the Workplace.
Academic Advising Philosophy
Rachel Daniel outlines her philosophy and approach to academic advising. She believes advisors play a vital role in helping students achieve their academic and career goals by fostering behaviors like resilience and self-reflection that lead to graduation. Her advising framework blends teaching, developmental, appreciative, and intrusive methods. This allows her to view each interaction as a learning opportunity and help students grow as decision makers. As an advisor, she strives to be a connector, mentor, listener, cultivator, encourager, guide, and advocate for students.

Nature of Intelligence by Tim Thayne
Howard Gardner identified seven original forms of intelligence, adding an eighth in the 1990s and considering a ninth. Robert Sternberg asserted that practical intelligence is important for dealing with everyday life contexts. Daniel Goleman argued that emotional intelligence, involving self and social awareness, is equally or more important than IQ. Culture influences intelligence through factors like positionality, privilege, context and power. No culture can be exclusive and still thrive.

Topics In Critical Pedagogy
Critical pedagogy aims to promote educational change by questioning why educational practices are done in certain ways and exposing domination and exploitation. It involves habits of thinking deeply about the meanings, causes, contexts and consequences of various subjects. Key proponents include Paulo Freire, Ivan Illich and Henry Giroux. Critical pedagogy in Canada explores concepts like "whiteness" and the impact of colonialism, like Indian Residential Schools. It also examines First Nations epistemology, pedagogy and institutions of higher education, as well as how non-Natives engage with First Nations education.
Self directed learning-overview
Self-directed learning (SDL) describes a process where individuals take initiative to diagnose learning needs, formulate goals, identify resources, choose learning strategies, and evaluate outcomes. SDL thrives in environments that nurture and support learning for all employees. Organizations can promote SDL by providing open access to learning resources, knowledge sharing structures, learning experiences that integrate content, and leadership support. Leaders should assess how their organization currently supports or restricts SDL by reviewing access to resources, knowledge sharing capabilities, experience design, and coaching for learners.

Issue based learning ppt
This document discusses issue-based learning and the need for a new education system. It argues that the current system does not adequately address inequalities and injustices in society. A new system should use education for social reformation by incorporating social issues into the curriculum. This would allow students to develop skills like critical thinking while working towards social justice goals like addressing lack of resources, marginalization, and environmental issues. The proposed issue-based curriculum would help students understand the roots of problems, form their own opinions, and potentially intervene in social issues.
Participatory pedagogy
This document discusses participatory pedagogy, which involves creating learning environments where students can construct their own knowledge through active participation and collaboration. It defines participatory and pedagogy, then gives examples of how participatory pedagogy can allow student voice and choice in learning opportunities through collaborative activities like Philosophy for Children discussions. Effective participatory learning engages students as knowledge creators for wider audiences, using both formal and informal learning approaches.

NTLT 2012 - Good work in group work
Group work can provide significant benefits to learning when done effectively. Research shows that collaborative group work promotes higher individual achievement when students work interdependently, are individually accountable, promote face-to-face interaction, develop teamwork skills, and reflect on the group process. However, barriers like a lack of interdependence or competition between group members can limit the benefits. Effective group work structures individual accountability and utilizes tools and techniques to engage students with the material and each other.
Using Focus Groups In Qualitative Research
The focus group interviews were conducted on the campus of the University of California, Irvine to understand students' coping mechanisms for loneliness and stress using technology. Four students and a moderator participated in each interview, seated in a circle in an empty classroom to encourage open dialogue.

Cooperative learning is a teaching strategy where small teams of students work together on learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject. It originated from philosophers like John Dewey who believed in progressive education to create responsible democratic citizens, and psychologists like Morton Deutsch who saw cooperation as building trust and relationships. Cooperative learning structures provide different roles for students and specialized expertise to promote positive interdependence and accountability. Implementing cooperative learning effectively involves forming heterogeneous teams, developing students' teamwork skills, and having groups reflect on their process.

This document summarizes a teacher's action research project that aimed to improve writing conferencing for middle school students with autism through the use of graphic organizers. The teacher implemented graphic organizers called VOICES during writing conferences and observed their impact. Data collection included student surveys and conferencing records. Findings indicated that the organizers assisted students by helping them expand vocabulary, use connectives, and employ sophisticated punctuation. The teacher concluded the organizers are an effective tool for enhancing literacy skills when used during individualized conferencing with autistic students. However, further research is needed to determine their long-term impact on teaching and learning.

- The document discusses the assumptions of andragogy, which are that adult learners are self-directed, bring experience to learning, are ready to learn, are problem-centered, and are motivated internally. It analyzes how these assumptions apply to online learning environments.
- Specifically, it notes that online courses should allow learners to identify their own goals and activities while still providing structure and guidance from instructors. Courses should also foster collaboration and communication between learners.
- Challenges to applying the assumptions, like some learners lacking self-direction skills or resources, are also addressed. The document advocates a balanced approach between learner independence and instructor support.

Problem based learning
Problem-based learning is a structured, student-led process that begins with a problem as the starting point for learning. It involves students reading a problem aloud, describing the essence of the problem in a few sentences or a title. Students then brainstorm anything potentially relevant to the problem and systematically organize these ideas thematically. Finally, students identify learning outcomes phrased as researchable questions based on the issues organized in the previous stage.

The expert witness in court
The document discusses several key issues regarding the use of expert testimony in court:
1) What constitutes expertise and how is it defined in a legal context? Experts must provide objective, unbiased opinions within their expertise but cases show expert opinions can differ substantially.
2) How are expert opinions formed and evaluated, and what factors influence this? Expert opinions are not always robust and transparent, potentially misleading juries.
3) How can expert opinions best be communicated to juries to aid their understanding of complex scientific or technical issues? Effective communication is important as juries must consider expert testimony along with other evidence.

The document discusses how university websites present information about law programs and legal education. It notes that websites often show what universities want students to know rather than the information students want. It also discusses how websites could be improved by providing more consistent and navigable information across institutions, including criteria like teaching hours, assessments, employment outcomes, facilities, and fees. The document concludes that while law program websites have improved with more professional and visual content since 2004, information is still often fragmented and not always up-to-date.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
