EDSS341/468 Tutorial Tuesday 12 - 2 p.m. p.m. by Vicki Thorpe https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9 Workspace 2 en-us 2020-08-05 05:53:08 UTC 2026-03-10 03:34:15 UTC hello@padlet.com Action LearningAction Learning combines learning by doing and collaborative learning. There are four key components – a coach, a group a problem and a question. These key components help students with reflection in learning. Action learning help students form a solution when presented with a problem. It encourages students to work on their own throughout their own experiences, therefor allowing students to develop their independence. Group activities are a diverse approach to promote learning. An action learning session begins with active learning and refraining a problem by asking questions to begin the lesson. https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682212332 2020-08-17 03:57:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682212332 Decolonising Learning https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682212959 2020-08-17 03:58:09 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682212959 https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682214493 2020-08-17 04:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682214493 https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682214550 Virtual Studios]]> 2020-08-17 04:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682214550 Learning through WonderElizabeth Key and Yanis van Helden- Wonder invites learning- Wonder is multi-faceted- Teacher helps students solve problems through hands on experiences- Allows students to share ideas of wonder and find/create their own wonderous objectsMatthew McFall: wonder as a series of phases• Anticipation: a sense that something is going to happen and a desire to know more. • Encounter: the moment of experiencing the wondrous.• Investigation: pursuit of the wondrous, to understand it better or to continue the experience. • Discovery: coming to understand, or realise how much more there is to know.• Propagation: continued working with this wonder, to share and celebrate. https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682215982 2020-08-17 04:01:49 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682215982 Creating robots that perform well at specific tasks can be an exciting and collaborative learning activity.They become active creators of knowledge who explore, question, and assess what they have learnt. Cognitive verbs – creating, collaborating, explore, question, analysis, explain. – all used when using robots/technologies Robots can take on routine tasks, freeing teachers to spend more time with learnersCan be expensive - looking at lower pricing such as Lego or Roblox or BeebotsEmphasis on hands learning – children can learn and demonstrate their learning more effectively and create more engagement between teacher and students. https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682216799 2020-08-17 04:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682216799 Playful learning - Central part of teaching and learning - Has no age limitations – children to adults- Used to motivate and engage- Develops critical thinking, problem solving, analytical communication skills- Used inside and outside of the classroom Four forms of play: 1. Pretend playo Role play – exploring different perspectiveso Supports to develop language and social skillso Learn about others and their environment o Opportunities to express and explore emotions - fears and desires o Free play vs guided play – guidance and support from a teacher2. Mobile playo Apps that support learning on the mobile o Learning content with game elementso Develop problem solving skills and language developmento Interactive and flexible o Opportunities for exploration and discovery o Make learning visible 3. Digital gameso Creation of own online game? o Coding? 4. Developing playful values o Changes how learners think about learning o Goal: students to become more curious and take more risks in their learningo Play spaces are either physical or imaginary https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682217307 2020-08-17 04:03:35 UTC https://padlet.com/vicki_thorpe/w4qpyui2c7cffhq9/wish/682217307 Drones enable both recreational and educational activities. They’re new tools, which offer a different approach for fieldwork as well as an effective way to engage students in learning. Drones can feed learners’ curiosity to see things that are hidden, can help make abstract concepts more concrete, and have a role to play in making outdoor learning more attractive. Drones allow visual data to be collected in areas that students may not have access to. Students have the ability to view footage from areas around the world and use these in their studies. E.g rainforests, deserts, specific locations/countries to explore culture. If school have access to drones for their own use, a range of subject areas can be taught in a hands-on environment. Mathematics, including activities such as predicting flight times, or landing drones in particular places identified through mathematical problem solving. Use of drones helps to make some mathematical concepts more concrete for students.
