Article: Informing the Implementation of Personalized Learning in the Middle Grades through a School-Wide Genius Hour

2023-04-10T22:30:05+01:00

Life LeGeros, Penny Bishop, Steven Netcoh & John Downes Over the past decade, personalized learning has emerged as a major aim in the contemporary education systems of many countries. This qualitative case study examined middle school educators’ perceptions of how their school’s collective experimentation with Genius Hour supported the broader implementation of personalized learning. Teachers in the study perceived Genius Hour to foster student self-direction and to engage students through relationships and choice provision. Teachers benefited from experiencing a model of personalized learning in practice and participating in its initial success, although logistical, personal, and curricular considerations kept them from integrating [...]

Improved Student Engagement in Higher Education’s Next Normal

2023-04-10T22:57:23+01:00Tags: , , , , |

Ed Glantz, Chris Gamrat, Lisa Lenze and Jeffrey Bardzell Education in times of pandemic transformed rapidly, and many teachers quickly innovated with technology-based teaching methods. The article asks if any of these innovations and adaptations should be maintained to form the "next normal" in higher education. The authors suggest five teaching enhancements as possible candidates for continued acceptance. All of these pandemic-introduced adaptations improve student engagement. The first four enhance student engagement during class, whereas the fifth offers engagement opportunities outside of class. They believe the following five initiatives, introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, should become part of that best practice. Collaborative Technologies for [...]

Torres. J., & Tagoe, V. (2022). Liven Up Your Library: Design Engaging and Inclusive Programs for Tweens and Teens. ISTE   Torres makes a call to action for school librarians to center student voices in programming and collection management in the book “Liven Up Your Library: Design Engaging and Inclusive Programs for Tweens and Teens,” co-authored by Valerie Tagoe. “[W]e cannot claim to serve young people while excluding them from conversations and decision-making about resources and materials that are primarily for their use. We must always prioritize and protect student empowerment as a key right and responsibility when working with young [...]

Artículo: Connecting student interests and questions with science learning goals through project-based storylines

2022-11-29T17:31:47+01:00Tags: , , , , , |

Este artículo describe una manera concreta de utilizar la estrategia del aprendizaje basado en proyectos (storylines,) para potenciar el aprendizaje de las ciencias de estudiantes de bachillerato.   Resumen: In this conceptual paper, we describe the approach in storylines that builds on principles of project-based learning and focuses on supports for making science learning coherent from the students’ perspective. In storylines, students see their science work as addressing questions and problems their class has identified. We present design principles that guide the teaching and enactment of storyline units and explore the connections of these principles to ideas of project-based science. We [...]

Artículo: Invoking student resources in whole-class conversations in science education: A sociocultural perspective

2022-11-29T17:22:59+01:00Tags: , , , , , , |

El siguiente artículo aborda de qué manera la introducción de los recursos de los estudiantes (experiencias e ideas cotidianas) al diálogo de la clase pueden convertirse en un medio para apoyar el aprendizaje. Resumen Background: While much literature has argued for the value of carefully designed instructional units building on student resources, less work details how students’ own invocation of experiences and ideas from their everyday lives plays out in naturalistic classroom dialogues. Employing a sociocultural and interactional approach, this article illuminates how student resources become mediational means in ways that support learning. Methods: The empirical basis constitutes whole-class conversations involving [...]

Artículo: Weaving together the past, present and future in whole class conversations: analyzing the emergence of a hybrid educational chronotope connecting everyday experiences and school science

2022-11-29T17:19:23+01:00Tags: , , , , |

El presente artículo examina en el impacto que tiene el relato de historias de relevancia personal en la implicación que presenta el alumnado hacia el aprendizaje de ciencias.   Resumen: In sociocultural research, many scholars have studied the relationship between students’ everyday lives outside of school and classroom learning. This article contributes to this area by focusing explicitly on the timespace dimensions of meaning making in science education. We draw on Bakhtin’s notion of the chronotope to examine how students can become engaged in science learning through telling stories of personal relevance. We analyze an especially interesting example of a whole-class [...]
