Q

Why is up to date and appropriate technology important in effectively supporting education development?

A

-Using it for professional and administrative purposes

19
Q

What is metacognition?

A

‘Thinking about your thinking’

•Know how you learn best
•Notice what you’re doing while learning
•Adjust your approach if something isn’t working

20
Q

What three ways does metacognition support children’s own learning?

A

-Identifying the strengths and areas for development within their learning
-Using cognitive strategies to construct knowledge
-Using metacognitive strategies to regulate and evaluate own learning

21
Q

What six ways can metacognition help children to achieve?

A

-Building up a set of transferable skills and strategies they can apply to new subjects and situations
-Better preparing for assessments
-Monitoring their own understanding
-Identifying barriers to their own learning and actively minimising them
-Learning from mistakes to avoid them happening again in the future
-Adapting their learning strategies to appropriate for the task

22
Q

What three ways can humanism be remembered in education?

A

Safe and nurturing environment:
• the teacher creates an vironment in which students feel physically d emotionally safe and can focus on learning.

Holistic:
the teacher considers the student’s whole being. including home environment and other factors that could impact on learning
• the teacher acts as a coach, helping students to achieve their goals.

Studen centered learning:
• the student is given freedom to select learning materials and manage their own progress
• learning decisions rest with the student, not the teacher.

23
Q

What are the five advocates of the humanist approach?

A

Bronfenbrenners ecological system
Malaguzzi’s ‘100 languages of a child’
Paulo Freiries Pedagogy of the oppressed
Maslows hierarchy of needs
Carl Roger’s’ Freedom to learn
United nations Convention on the Agents of child

24
Q

What is Humanism?

A

Humanism, in the context of learning, is about recognising the needs, strengths, feelings and individuality of each child and young person.
Humanism rejects the idea of a ‘one-size fits all’ approach to education.

25
What are the six key futures of holistic learning with humanism?
1 Individuals construct knowledge in the context of their own unique feelings, values and experiences. 2 Feelings are as important as knowledge in the learning process. 3 The teacher's role is to facilitate rather than deliver learning. 4 Learning should be personalised to each individual student. 5 A student's person potential can only be fulfilled when their physical and affective needs have been met. 6 Humans are intentional and seek meaning, value and creativity.
26
What are the four ways of applying connectivism as an approach?
-Massive open online courses -Social networking -Gamification -Immersive learning
27
What are the three influential advocates of connectivism?
1 Downes Modernised learning delivery strategies: Downes carried out research with an organisation to improve their online delivery. The research looked at mobile devices, collaborative working and the use of virtual libraries to include links to videos and podcasts. Siemens 'Learning theory for the digital age' and 'Massive open online courses: Innovation in education?' Siemens' papers suggest that traditional ways of learning need to be overhauled. He outlined the principles of connectivism (see earlier). He also advocates peer learning networks and massive open online courses (MOOCs). 3 Lave and Wenger's Community of Practice: The Community of Practice is a theory that focuses on the social ways in which groups of people come together to learn, exchange ideas and explore information. A key difference to Siemens' and Downes' work is that groups may come together face-to-face, e.g. a book club.
28
What is connectivism?
It recognises that learners have access to information from a range of sources on the internet
29
What are five features of connectivism?
1. Technology - Supports many learning sequences, greater access to online information, ideas and communities of information 2. Nodes - objects, diversity of opinions and sources is key 3. Links - Make links between nodes, continue to make and form connections to form knowledge 4. Currency - Knoweldge is quickly obsolete, learning is a continual process, learning is more critical than knowing 5. Informal - Formal learning no longer makes up the main knowledge is secured
30
What is Social Constructivism?
Children and young people learn through talking or doing things with adults or older children
31
What are the three key features of Social constructivism?
Active: learning is a social process between teachers and peers Interactions: understanding and knowledge of the world is based on quality of interactions with others Environment: home environment, culture and society can influence quality of interactions
32
What is the pedagogical approach of social constructivism?
Enquiry based learning Modelling Flipped learning Commentary Sustained shared learning Reflection
33
Which theorists support social constructivism?
Bergman and sam’s ‘Flip your classroom Bruners discovery learning Marron Dowlings Young children’s thinking Catty Nutbrowns thread of thinking The 30 million word gap Vygotskys zone of proximal development
34
What is cognitive constructivism?
Cognitive constructivism focuses on the way a person makes sense of new information by linking it to what they already know and then drawing new conclusions. The term schema is often used in relation to constructivism. It was used by Jean Piaget in his theory of cognitive development but has been more widely adopted. A schema (plural: schemata) is a way of thinking about something or doing something. A child may develop a schema that their key person belongs in the nursery, because this is where the child always sees them. When the child meets the key person in a shop, this is new information that will challenge the child's current thoughts and so may eventually change the child's schema about the key person.
35
What are the three key features of cognitive constructivism?
1 Assimilation: learning builds on what students already know and can do. 2 Accommodation: knowledge is actively constructed through a process of discovery. 3 Sequential/Schematic: learning follows a sequence of stages.
36
What pedagogical approach can be applied to cognitive constructivism?
1 High scope: an early childhood programme that began in the USA. + Teachers provide challenging experiences and resources matched to their students' stages of development. 2 Project-based learning + Students engage in real life problems, such as designing a product, and 3 Virtual reality are responsible for their choices, decisions and solutions. + Using digital technology, learning takes place within a simulated real-world environment. Supporting educa Typical mistake Linking Pavlov's and Watson's work to positive and negative reinforcement. Exam tip Uniess specifically asked, do not refer to a theorist or an approach in a case study unless you are confident in your knowledge My
37
What is underpinning evidence of cognitive constructivism?
Piagets four stages of development Bruners three models of representation Kolbs experimental learning cycle Blooms taxonomy
38
What are three ways behaviourism may be used when teaching?
Questioning Direct instruction Mastery learning
39
What are five examples of underpinning evidence for behaviourism?
Pavlovs dog study Weston’s little albert experiment Skinners study of operant conditioning Ark mathematics mastery project
40
What is behaviourism?
people's behaviour. It can also be used as a way of helping children and young people remember information. An example of behaviourism is when children learn their multiplication tables by rote in order to get praise or reward. The term 'conditioning' is an important feature in behaviourism. It refers to the way that responses are shaped as a result of what happens to the child or young person. The term 'stimuli" is used to describe the 'triggers' or the 'what happens part of the process.
41
What are five examples of underpinning evidence for behaviourism?
