•Human beings lack the ability to learn, only the ability to form connections.

craigmitchell3 — 2023-11-07 16:42:30 UTC

•There is no such thing as new knowledge, just a new way of interpreting existing connections.

craigmitchell3 — 2023-11-07 16:42:45 UTC

•The connections we tend to form can be directly related to our background, culture, society etc.

Connecting and building ideas by networking

Learning is a network forming process

Knowledge is a networked product

BIOLOGICAL – Naturally learning. The things you pick up naturally

CONCEPTS – Connecting your current knowledge with new ideas. This deepens understanding

EXTERNAL – using social spaces, tools like social media to connect to others for .

Learning has broadly been based up 3 theories in the past

•Behaviourism

•Cognitivism

•Constructivism

Theses all have their merits but fail to meet how technology

is reshaping our life's, how we communicate and how we

Learn.

COP

CoP are groups of people with the same passion and interact reguarly to learn from each other to see if there are better ways

The pipe(how the information is delivered) is more important than the content within the pipe. Our ability to learn what we need for tomorrow is more important than what we know today. A real challenge for any learning theory is to actuate known knowledge at the point of application. When knowledge, however, is needed, but not known, the ability to plug into sources to meet the requirements becomes a vital skill.

As knowledge continues to grow and evolve, access to what is needed is more important than what the learner currently possesses

Connectivism presents a model of learning that acknowledges the tectonic shifts in society where learning is no longer an internal, individualistic activity.

How people work and function is altered when new tools are utilized. The field of education has been slow to recognize both the impact of new learning tools and the environmental changes in what it means to learn.

Connectivism provides insight into learning skills and tasks needed for learners to flourish in a digital era.

Supporting attainment & relationships

2023-11-07 16:54:57 UTC

With consideration given to groupings project based learning can support relationships between students from different backgrounds in the classroom. There is also evidence that project based learning can support closing the attainment gap- spurring on those to contribute who may sometimes take a step back and allowing those who are capable to take on leadership roles/ support and encourage others.

Links to CFE Sectors

2023-11-07 16:57:06 UTC

Relational learning links to all 4 capacities of CFE within teaching.

Foundation - Balance of control in the classroom. Educator or student. Where does best learning sit?

Adults have deep psychological need for self directed learning. Who likes getting told what to do?

u23ah23 — 2023-11-07 16:59:14 UTC

Student improvised learning

2023-11-07 16:59:35 UTC

The idea of letting the students decide on what they want to learn by self directed study. With some encouragement that lessons can be delivered from anywhere and that we need to change the methods of assessment to progress with times

Will young people automatically take charge of the classroom if left with the power to do so?

To learn in social spaces you must

Care to make a difference

Engage your uncertainties

Pay attention to others

EVERYONE HAS A GOAL IN LIFE

PBL

u31sm23 — 2023-11-07 17:08:46 UTC

With growing demands on social skills, PBL needs to be encouraged. There is evidence that PBL has a positive impact on students but there is no research on whether it works for neurodiverse students or students who start out on an uneven social footing.

Relationships - Trust in knowing the participants/pupils and what they are involved

craigmitchell3 — 2023-11-07 17:33:01 UTC

Group 1

we noticed similiarities in all of the 4 topics. With the way infromation on the topic has been delivered and recieved by the students. Age of students can make big differance as well as motivation to be interested in the subject

Group 4

2023-11-07 17:38:35 UTC

We found similarities that project based learning, communities of practice and self directed learning all need specified goals to work towards to enable learners to be supported to achieve.

Knowing your students

2023-11-07 17:39:16 UTC

Knowing the individual needs to develop the class environment and approaches

Project based learning was closley linked with self directed learning. How doe groups work when left sort out environment, content etc. Does it help all of the students?

Working with your student by getting know them and therefore being able to use strategies that will work for them.
