Humans Need Not Apply

The changing nature of learning
https://vimeo.com/105406386

In Humans Need Not Apply, we are confronted with some significant challenge that requires us to rethink the nature of our roles & responsibilities as educators & lead learners.

If we think about this, what is something you currently do as an instructional practice, or teacher behaviour that addresses this issue?

?

Become increasingly strategic in your approach to your own learning, your learning design & the instructional practices & lead learner behaviours you intentionally progress.

Make at least 20% of what you do, things you didn't do, or couldn't do 2 years ago.

The World Today?

We (people in this room) live in increasingly connected, networked, real time, non-temporal community.

We live with networked facts & this creates complexity & uncertainty.


Facts change all the time. Smoking has gone from doctor-recommended to deadly. We used to think Earth was the centre of the universe and that Pluto was a planet. For decades we were convinced that the brontosaurus was a real dinosaur. In short, what we know about the world is constantly changing. But it turns out there's an order to the state of knowledge, an explanation for how we know what we know. Knowledge in most fields evolves systematically and predictably, and this evolution unfolds in a fascinating way that can have a powerful impact on our lives.

There exist gaps between have/have not, can/cannot, do/don't. There are traditional and contemporary abilities that we need to focus on.

Powerful influencers who participate & contribute. What is their reality compared to those who do not?

We are expanding our definitions of what we consider to be entitlements & necessary skills, knowledge, attitudes and understandings.

Technology has created some solutions & has failed to deliver some of the expectations we have had.

A missing piece of this narrative is the CHANGE KNOWLEDGE that Michael Fullen speaks of.

NMC K12 Report

http://www.nmc.org/nmc-horizon-news/nmc-and-cosn-release-the-horizon-report...

Each year the New Media Consortium releases a number of reports that talk about the technologies that will impact over the short, medium & long term on teaching & learning.

The reports are available online and come out at the end of June each year.

It is important to familiarise ourselves with this authoritative & global perspective & consider what it means for our ongoing learning as educators.

Rethinking the roles of teachers

Sneak Peek of the 2015 K-12 Report

http://circulus.com.au/sneak-peek-at-the-future-2015-horizon-report-k12-edi...



Current Report:

http://redarchive.nmc.org/publications/2014-horizon-report-k12

Teachers are increasingly expected to be adept at a variety of ICT-based and other approaches for
content delivery, learner support, and assessment; to collaborate with other teachers both inside and
outside their schools; to routinely use digital strategies in their work with students and act as guides
and mentors; and to organise their own work and comply with administrative documentation and
reporting requirements. Students, along with their families, add to these expectations through their
own use of ICT to socialise, organise, and informally learn on a daily basis, and many educational
thought leaders argue that schools should be providing ways for students to continue to engage in
learning activities, formal and non-formal, beyond the traditional school day. As this trend gathers
steam, many schools across the world are rethinking the primary responsibilities of teachers. Related
to these evolving expectations are changes in the ways teachers engage in their own continuing
professional development, much of which involves social media and online tools and resources. While
fully online schoolwork is still relatively rare, an increasing number of teachers are using more hybrid
and experiential learning scenarios, and experimenting with social media and others ways of building
learning communities.

Shift to deep learning approaches

There is a new emphasis in the classroom on more challenge based, active learning. Challenge Based
Learning and similar methods foster more active learning experiences, both inside and outside the
classroom. As technologies such as tablets and smartphones now have proven applications in schools,
educators are leveraging these tools, which students already use, to connect the curriculum with real life
issues. The active learning approaches are decidedly more student-centered, allowing them to take control
of how they engage with a subject and to brainstorm and implement solutions to pressing local and global
problems. The hope is that if learners can connect the course material with their own lives and their
surrounding communities, then they will become more excited to learn and immerse themselves in the
subject matter.

Digital Citizenship

Ethical/Moral Compass?

What thinking & purposeful work do we need to action that develops intrinsic, constructive behaviour in children & young people that is constructive, safely exploratory & respectful/considerate of self & others.

Respectful: To Look Again

TfEL: Executive Function

Dark Web & the idea that there is something out there that is 700 times larger than the indexed web that you know

How they behave when nobody is aware, what does that think like as part of learning design?

Global Competencies

Traditional & Contemporary: New Basics
When developing children & young people through education what are your understandings & agreements in relation to these:

Traditional Basics

Emerging & Contemporary Basics

You will have heard the term 21st Century skills, capabilities, knowledge et al:

What are the first things that come to mind that validate & challenge your current thinking/knowings?

What is it you know?

Global

  • Think Globally
  • Open, flexible, chaotic navigation & exploration
  • resilience
  • relational
  • other?

AC

  • Melbourne Declaration
  • AC expanded expectation
  • Knowledge 2 Understanding
The Melbourne Declaration 2008 to 2018 is a genisis document to the Australian Curriculum.
It represents the current agreements that Ministers have for the progress of identified goals for Young Australians.

If the teacher knows the answer, is it a good question?
It may be, however if it is something that can be extended, stretched, create cognitive load, make use of meta-reflection then it is improved.
