NeuroEducation

NeuroEducation

• Legit Science Evidence
• Biology Of Learning
• Metacognition
• Cognitive Psychology

Students Of Learning

Ubiquitous & Life-Long

Transmission Learning

Transmission Learning

• Founded: Epistemology (knowing)
• Informational Learning
• Traditional

Transmission Learning

• One way from expert to learner
• Beginning & End

Transmission Learning

• Often Linear
• Audience containers to be filled
• Content decided by expert

Transmission Learning

• Learner brought into a system
• Learner exposed to content
• Primary Lecture & Courses

Transmission Learning

• Focus on distributing information
• Belief - give learners knowledge
• Expensive to implement

Transmission Learning

• Leads to surface learning
• Fosters cramming to pass test
• Major odds with learning research

Transformational Learning

Transformational Learning

• Grounded in ontology 
• (nature, science of learning, being)
• Legit science of biology of learning

Transformational Learning

• Emphasis on cognition & reflection
• Fosters exploration, inquiry
• Self Directed
• Facilitated learning experiences

Transformational Learning

• Learner acquires, connects, makes sense 
• Learner creates new knowledge
• Real life context
• Results in Deep Learning

Transformational Learning

• Fosters innovation, higher level cognition
• Requires competency & critical thinking
• Real life context
• Ongoing, continious

Transformational Learning

• Orgs fear because of lack of control
• Orgs fear because lack of focus
• Self directed too loose
• Incompatible with "how we learned"

What is role of technology

Association Education Legacies

Certification =

Certification =

Certification Shifts

• From Acquisition of Knowledge
• To Competency Based

Knowledge Acquisition

Knowledge Acquisition Shifts

• From memorizing facts & data
• To performance based outcomes
• Demonstrating skills

Presentation Strategies =

Presentation Strategies Shift

• From SMEs dispensing info
• To designing learning
• Focus on Learning Design
• + Critical content development

Belief Lecture Best

Education Beliefs Shift

• From absorbing info from spoken word
• To NeuroEducation, Metacognition

Networked Learning

Networked Learning Shifts

• From distributing info via web
• To personal learning networks
• To peerology (peer to peer)
• Social Learning 

Three Steps

Learning Methods

• Lectures, DVDs, Reading
• Simulations, Games
• Asynchronous or synchronous 

Learning Methods

• Discussions, Online Chats, Text Chat
• Creating, Producing, Writing
• Drawing, Composing, Remixing
• Practice, Apply, Explore
• Reflective, Imagine

1. Clarify Learning Intent

1. What will learner do?

• Produce, create, demonstrate
• During education experience
• & at conclusion of experience

2. Evaluate Method Affordances

2. Evaluate Method Affordances

• What is possible with different tech tools
• Consider given learning goal
• Consider context of learning

3. Select Method

3. Select Method Based On

• Availability, Expense
• Time Require To Use 
• Access To Tech
• Expertise, Bandwidth
