Professional development is evolving. Slowly but surely, schools and organizations are attempting to move away from the typical sit-and-get workshop and creating formats that promote problem solving and boost participant engagement. This has led to a rise in PD that makes educators the drivers of innovation.

This trend is awesome.

The problem: Participants are forced to make a lot of assumptions about their students because they’re not given a chance to include those students in the process.

Student Voice Comes With Teachers as Listeners | LEARNing To LEARN

Student Voice Comes With Teachers as Listeners | LEARNing To LEARN | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From usergeneratededucation.wordpress.com - November 19, 2015 7:52 PM

This piece was actually sparked by an interview of Lady Gaga by Soledad O' Brien at the Born This Way Emotion Revolution Summit where Gaga stated, "It's time to stop telling learners what to do and 

start listening for we can do for them.”


One of those accepted practices, sadly, in most educational settings is that the teacher is the authority to be respected and listened to without question. Listening to students is not a practice that is often taught in teacher education programs.


There is a current movement, in some circles, to promote and honor student voice.  But, and this is a huge but, if educators are serious about honoring student voice, they need to first learn how to listen, really listen to their students.

Students who are given a voice in setting goals gain ownership in what they’re learning. Teachers who listen to what students tell them they need to learn gain more than just a better understanding of the children they teach — they gain clarity on their roadmap to better teaching. And when conversations about teaching and learning are allowed to happen, teachers and students develop mutual trust and high expectations. (Want to Improve Teaching? Listen to Students)

Dixie Binford's curator insight, November 30, 2015 10:25 AM

As I visit classrooms, I see teachers working hard at lecturing and students passively receiving.  A few students may be actively taking notes of some kind but most are just listening, maybe.  In John Hattie's , Visible Learning (pp.43-44), one of the most effective predictors of student performance is the student's own reporting of his/her level of knowledge of the content.
Prometheus's curator insight, December 3, 2015 2:41 PM
Listening to students is important. The emphasis on this and it's repercussions for learning in the classroom are something that ties in with the Te Kotahitanga program that is in place across school in New Zealand. Getting to know students and developing relationships with them for me has always been key and listening to students is an essential part of this.

Student voice matters in education today. Listening to those voices and, even more, entrusting students with decisions about the nature of their learning communities, has tremendous benefits. I am not just referring to future benefits in terms of test score results and measurable academic gains. I am also looking at the benefits of creating more equitable and humane learning communities for today. We see this happening in promising ways, but what if we saw it even more? What if we found ways to persistently engage students in tackling some of education’s greatest challenges and pursuing some of its greatest opportunities? What if the students had more room to imagine the possibilities and to pursue them?

Shaona Williams's curator insight, December 8, 2015 1:22 AM

Despite the fact that the purpose of education is theoretically for the betterment of the students, they are often absent at the conversations about education that affect them the most. This year, the nonprofit Student Voice aimed to change that with the first ever student-led education summit -  “The State and Future of Student Rights.”. 

The students and other education stakeholders at the summit gathered to discuss the rights they believe all students deserve and how to integrate these rights in schools across the country.
