Love the ideas here and realize the challenge of the mission. Our kids need to embrace their mistakes as learning opportunities rather than expect immediate mastery and feedback with praise. i am thinking of making a classroom poster ( or posters) with the Word "YET" in giant letters and use that as our mantra.

Wonderful article that points out some of the challenges of Standards Based Learning as well as ways that instructors can maintain their own unique teaching styles and interests. Great article for discussion in PD meetings, online learning, and teacher prep courses!

's comment
The curation comment is interesting... I think it's fantastic that students are able to gain these skills without the assistance of a teacher, but ultimately if they veer off the path or have been misguided, they will always need a facilitator to not only show students the tools but also give them some best practice ideas.

This describes the 12 principles of mobile learning. It describes not only how to use technology in classes but also the reasoning behind using it. |
Career and Technical Education programs (often called vocational schools) have their students learn by doing. Learning by doing is known as experiential learning. Why is experiential learning beneficial? Below are the three reasons described in this post.
Reason 1: Experiential education promotes positive attitudes towards learning.
Reason 2: Experiential education provides true-to-life experience that enhances career exploration.
Reason 3: Experiential education helps create more engaged members of the workforce.
Each of these reasons is discussed in the post. There is also an excellent infographic, Experiential Learning in the Classroom: Learn by Doing.
