Week 3 Reflection

To start todays tute lesson, Wendy introduced us to a way to filter what we have learnt so far.
Topics we have thought about and learnt:

• What is TPACK: Technological Pedogoical and  Curriculum Knowledge
• Contemporary learning: Can’t escape the fact, Creativity
• What is thinking?
•   Blooms taxonomy
• Digital pedagogy:
• What is pedagogy: Teaching
• How do learners learn? theory

Taking everything we know and put it into the filter of:

• Past experiences
• Prior knowledge
• Beliefs I already had

Take what I don’t need and throw it away           Balance it out

             And develop your own understanding: your world view

Other points that I took from the lesson include knowledge of the education systems:

·      Regard schools as though they are surrounded by a moat: the world is outside.

·     The moat is a school system: protect the people inside and keep others out.

·     21^st century can’t keep people out because they have managed to find ways to get in or out.

Therefore the teachers need to keep up to make sure students stay enagaged and enthused about learning.
