Problem and Project Based Learning in Social StudiesAlynethLawas
Problem-based learning entails using critical thinking to investigate problems that do not have a definitive answer. While in project-based learning, students are challenged to establish a plan and create a product that answers the problem. How can these approaches assist in the facilitation of learning in social studies?
Challenge Based Learning: Innovative Pedagogy for Sustainability through e-L...May Portuguez
Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) is an innovative teaching methodology that engages students to resolve real-world challenges while applying the knowledge they acquired during their professional training. This article describes the results of the implementation of an online course on entrepreneurship that utilized CBL with a group of 20 undergraduate students from various disciplines in a university in Mexico. During the course, challenges related to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations were presented to the participants, making it possible to observe the students’ interest in resolving these problems. This research uses a case study methodology and seeks to determine the CBL elements in the e-learning modality. The results showed that the participants generated sustainable business ideas aimed to resolve local, national, and global problems. The recommendations are to continue the formation of the businesses proposed in the project. These ideas can become real ventures that connect various actors in the entrepreneurial ecosystem and will continue to strengthen transversal skills such as teamwork and communication.
New teachers helps you develop your own philosophy of teaching. It deals with philosophical and psychological approachs of conceptualizing learning; learning styles, 21st century goals,etc.

Looking at Innovations in Curriculum through the Lens of 21st Century SkillsParisa Mehran
An innovative curriculum is characterized by the incorporation of 21st century skills, i.e., the essential skills needed for success in today’s world such as critical thinking and collaboration. Using Jenkins’ (2009) inventory, we investigated the curriculum orientations of Iranian school teachers particularly in terms of the precedence they give to critical thinking and students’ interests and needs. The participants endorsed curriculum innovation and valued the development of higher-order thinking skills and students’ 21st century concerns such as digital literacy. The results of this study will be further examined by comparing and contrasting the Iranian with the Japanese curricular practices.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
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

Prelude
“How we learn determines the
kind of society we build.”
J.D.Bransford
“No problem can be solved
from the same level of
thinking that created it.”
Einstein

1. Introduction
Copping with challenges of social issues, such as poverty, oppression, youth
violence and unemployment, inequalities of opportunities, in one hand, and
breaking boundaries of life long learning, on the other hand, at both national
and international level, requires adoption of much accountable, integrative and
holistic approach to knowledge construction and learning.
Social constructivism, in digital era, has demonstrated to be the most effective
pedagogical approach. As it helps learner to construct his/her own knowledge.
Such an approach ,claims to help promote some specific learning
competencies. What are these basic learning competencies for moving from
instruction and teaching to construction and learning ?
and
what are the pedagogical concerns and reflections related to
required competencies ?
5. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 5
1. Introduction (cont’d)
• Emerging digital technologies, in particular,
web2.0, e-portfolio, digital identities ;
• Expanding networking &collaborative
learning environments; in one hand, and
• Shift of paradigm in pedagogy from
behaviorism to social constructivism;
• Lifelong learning + key competencies ; on the
other hand, are main pedagogical concerns
discussed, from strategic perspective and
relevance, in this presentation .
6. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 6
2.The Future scenario:
Learning in 2020
“Obtain and create knowledge at the right
time, right place, in the right way, on the
right device, is
the vision for lifelong learning in 2020.”
(R,Hinrichs 2002)
7. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 7
2. The Future Scenario
(cont’d)…
-Students activities throughout the community is
enhanced by technology communication systems to
align industry, institutions and schools together in
real time knowledge construction and practice.
-As students work in collaborative environments the
learning objects adapt immediately to their learning
styles.
-In this intelligent learning environment, if the student
is having difficulty with complex processes, a virtual
world scenario gives him enhanced perspective of the
problem and allow him to play the actor of solving
problems, and as a lifelong learner.
8. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 8
3.The Pedagogical nature of
learning theories in practice
Social constructivism, in digital age ,has demonstrated to
be the most effective and pedagogical approach.
This approach fosters active learning over passive learning,
collaboration over competition, community over isolation.
Collaborative learning, team working, communities
of practice are modalities of social constructivism
approach .They all claim that knowledge is embedded
in activities. In other word:
knowing is inseparable from action and
environment.
9. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 9
3.The pedagogical nature…(cont’d)
In constructive pedagogical approach Knowledge is
constructed by the learner on the basis of his/her
previous experiences.
Knowledge is the result of social process.
While in cognitive pedagogical approach, learning is
based on an investigation of human thought processes.
Knowledge is the result of mental process.
In the behaviorist approach, learning is based on
repetition and strong association between the stimulus
and the desired behavior.
The emphasis is on knowledge adoption.
10. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 10
4.The paradigm shift
Based on the above evolution of pedagogical approaches
from behaviorism to social constructivism ,we can notice a
gradual paradigm shift In teaching –learning practice:
from Instruction to Construction ;
from Content to Context;
from Knowledge Adoption to
Knowledge Navigation.
11. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 11
4. The paradigm shift (cont’d)
While student (future life long learner) takes
responsibility for knowledge construction,
through debates, critical reflections ,and
problem solving rather than passive learning
by instruction, in the virtual learning
environment (VLE), the prerequisite is to be:
intelligent , inventive, and transparent.
12. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 12
5. Key learning competencies
In order to cope with embedded intelligent
systems as an intelligent, inventive and
transparent knowledge worker, a three fold
category of competencies are suggested
(OECD & IBE 2004) as follows:
1- Acting autonomously & reflectively
2- Using tools interactively
3- Joining & functioning in socially
heterogeneous groups.
13. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 13
5. Key learning competencies (cont’d)
1. Acting Autonomously & Reflectively
1.1- the ability to defend and assert one’s
right, interests, limits, and needs, and to
take responsibility;
1.2- the ability to form and conduct life
plans and professional –personal projects;
1.3- the ability to act within the big
picture/the larger context.
14. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 14
5. Key learning competencies
(cont’d)
2. Using Tools Interactively
2.1- the ability to use language, symbols
and text interactively;
2.2- the ability to use knowledge and
information interactively;
2.3- the ability to use new technology
interactively.
15. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 15
5. Key learning competencies
(cont’d)
3. Joining & Functioning in Socially
Heterogeneous Groups
3.1- the ability to relate well to others;
3.2- the ability to co-operate;
3.3- the ability to manage and resolve
conflict.
16. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 16
Conclusions
In order to cope successfully with connected
intelligent world, through networking and
collaborative learning environments ,students as
potential lifelong learners in knowledge based
economy, need to be intelligent, inventive and
transparent too.
The development of such competent individuals
demand a change in pedagogy from instruction
to construction .
17. F.Mashayekh/GIAN 17
Conclusions (cont’d)
Effective and responsible participation in today’s world calls
for the development of higher level cognitive skills ,
that implies development of critical thinking and a
reflective and holistic approach to life on the part of individual.
The development of autonomous and responsible individuals
who are able to critically adapt to change, demand some key
learning competencies as prerequisite; such as: acting
autonomously, being reflective ,using tools interactively ,and
functioning in heterogeneous groups.
