Schemata
the plural form of schema. Never heard it before! :)
-
Learners of all ages are more motivated when they can see the usefulness of what they are learning and when they can use that information to do something that has an impact on others
YASSSSS
-
Providing students with opportunities to first grapple with specific information relevant to a topic has been shown to create a “time for telling” that enables them to learn much more from an organizing lecture
takes time, but so valuable. Students feel uncomfortable, so I know they're about to learn!!
-
Knowledge must be “conditionalized” in order to be retrieved when it is needed
want to pay more attention to this in my teaching!
-
America
why is that?
-
two problems that share the same objects and look very similar may actually be solved by entirely different approaches.
this reminds me of the standards for mathematical practices
-
Instead, experts have acquired extensive knowledge that affects what they notice and how they organize, represent, and interpret information in their environment. This, in turn, affects their abilities to remember, reason, and solve problems.
Make sense! I appreciate this definition
-
feedback
yes!
-
The norms established in the classroom have strong effects on students’ achievement.
SO IMPORTANT!
-
what competence or mastery looks like
I need help with how to help students understand this in a way that isn't too leading. With young students, if I give an example, much of the class will do it exactly like my example. I intentionally steer away from this approach, but then how do I help the students recognize whether they have been successful or not?
-
they want to look good rather than risk making mistakes while learning
Love me some Dweck!! I try to hit this home with my first graders: a person's beliefs are KEY to his/her potential for learning and growth. She believed she could, so she did.
-
a teacher constructs an instructional program
teachers also have to consider their own strengths and style
-
Measuring depth of understanding can pose challenges for objectivity.
so...what's the next step? Or is there a happy medium?
-
revealed
my first grader really thought the moon was made out of cheese :)
-
conceptual framework
How do you help build this framework for students?
-
self-assessment
hmm...what does this look like in the primary grades?
-
helping people take control of their own learning
this needs to be explicitly taught
-
world they enter
Has anyone read the book (seen the movie? Room? Really made me think about how you make sense of the world based on your environment.
-
transfer (to other contexts)
I think the ability to transfer/apply understanding is true learning.
-
curricula have emphasized memory rather than under- Page 9 Share Cite Suggested Citation: "1 Learning: From Speculation to Science." National Research Council. 2000. How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press. doi: 10.17226/9853. × Save Cancel standing.
and testing!! Standardized tests have a huge impact on American school systems...but what are we saying when we measure success in this way?
-
the meaning of “knowing” has shifted from being able to remember and repeat information to being able to find and use it
this still makes a lot of people uncomfortable--including me at times!
-
to train people to think and read critically, to express themselves clearly and persuasively, to solve complex problems in science and mathematics
Yet many brilliant thinkers come from this era...I'm curious about their journey..
-
cultural and social norms and expectations and that these settings influence learning and transfer in powerful ways
can these be restrictive at times? cultural influences on education/learning are fascinating--I'd love to learn more about the impact.
