Krause (2005) What does learner engagement in the school setting mean? What does it mean for teaching? Dimensions of student engagement : Dimensions of student engagement A curriculum for engagement : A curriculum for engagement “ A curriculum for engagement calls for a teaching that is likely to engage, to connect, to lift, to enthuse, even to inspire. A curriculum for engagement calls for a pedagogy for engagement”. Barnett and Coate (2005) A Curriculum for Engagement : A Curriculum for Engagement How do we conceptualise: A curriculum for engagement? A pedagogy for engagement? Effective learning and the concept of engagement : Effective learning and the concept of engagement Do learners understand the concept of ‘engagement in the learning process’? Do staff assume that learners understand ‘engagement’? Do staff cultivate an engaging learning environment? Has NCEA made a difference? Learning as a challenge for learners : Learning as a challenge for learners Skills can be acquired without any critical reflection Knowledge can be acquired without much understanding Learners need to feel that their learning is worthwhile What are we trying to achieve? : What are we trying to achieve? Literacy skills, numeracy skills Communication, different levels, different media Team learning, individual learning Inter-cultural competence Personal growth Leadership skills Digital pedagogies : Digital pedagogies Technology can provide some solutions to engaging learners in the learning process. We need to consider the most appropriate pedagogies and learning design principles to support and enhance learners’participation, interactivity, and commitment to taking responsibility for their own learning. NetGen 1.0 to NetGen 2.0 : NetGen 1.0 to NetGen 2.0 With more extensive efforts to develop the curriculum based on constructing and transforming knowledge web 2.0 tools offer greater opportunities to engage in learning. Cloud computing practices_ social networking tools, communication tools, productivity tools ‘Cloud natives’- mobility, web-access, wireless A Logical Model of Curriculum Development : A Logical Model of Curriculum Development Learning design process : Learning design process The Iterative Process of Learning Design : The Iterative Process of Learning Design Design specification Learning design including tasks, activities, interaction and assessment Website and multimedia design and development Project management Dedicated evaluation, advice and services Learning designers play an important role in developing an understanding of the learning outcomes teaching staff want to achieve Linking learning and engagement : Linking learning and engagement ‘The single intervention by universities and colleges that would improve the quality of the student learning experience would be the enhancement of assessment practices’ (QAAHE 2003) Curriculum Transformation : Curriculum Transformation How might the curriculum, including assessment of learning be reshaped to enhance learner engagement? Do we acknowledge and explicitly assess key skills Do we promote ‘authentic learning experiences’? Authentic Learning Tasks (1) : Authentic Learning Tasks (1) Large classes in the sciences – group projects, real life problems to research and display as poster presentations. Assessment – peer, self, tutor assessment Preparing students to work in this way Focus is on research skills, emotional intelligence, self management, group work rather than on content Authentic Learning (2) : Authentic Learning (2) Environmental Engineers – real life problems – recycling waste, wind farms, pollution management etc. Team work – preparing students to work in teams, project management Outcomes – develop a website on feasibility study, show project management logbook (employer engagement) Assessment – pass/fail with no individual mark Previous major issue – group process Use of technology alleviated many of the issues of intra-team connection and communication Learning skills in group projects : Learning skills in group projects Team work – product and process Communication –including e-mail, blogs, wiki Research, information literacy Critical inquiry and creativity Leadership Web-based presentation Personal development Inter-culture competence Authentic Learning (3) : Authentic Learning (3) Poetry off the Page (TEA winner) Development of a virtual learning community – students read, hear, talk, touch, record, perform, analyse, digitise, animate and otherwise engage with a wide range of poetic and critical texts, experiencing first hand the complex interactions of both material and digital artistic expression (Helen Sword and Michelle Leggott) POTP : POTP The Assessment Web-page assignment based on poetry on the pavement, photographic accounts, reflective commentary Transform a poem for the web, upload a draft version and invite peer critique of their work (on-line) Produce a sophisticated digital exhibition of five related objects from UoA archives/special collections, peer critique each other’s work A final examination – students asked to reflect on the entire course, draw connections between reading assignments, lectures, discussions, group projects, classmates’ web-pages and their own work POTP and Graduate Profiles : POTP and Graduate Profiles A capacity for critical, conceptual and reflective thinking; An intellectual openness and curiosity A capacity for creativity and originality Key words for the course: creativity, collaboration and engagement Principles for Good Practice in Education : Principles for Good Practice in Education Share authority more Recast learners as teachers, researchers and producers of knowledge Promote collaborative relationships Cultivate multiple intelligences Foster critical creativity Encourage resilience in the face of change Craft assignments that look forwards and backwards End Note (1) : End Note (1) How do we achieve a whole of institution focus on enhancing learner engagement? How might we express‘engagement’ for our learners? Do we actively promote engagement through the curriculum, through the ways we facilitate learning and assess learning? Endnote (2) : Endnote (2) Learning in new media environments requires us to rethink education and embrace a constructivist approach There is research to be done to understand what technologies support the achievement of better learning outcomes A question still to be answered is – does the use of new technologies enhance levels of learner engagement – in a sustainable manner? The Top Five Challenges in Learning and Teaching : The Top Five Challenges in Learning and Teaching Creating learning environments to promote active learning, critical thinking, collaborative learning and knowledge creation Developing 21C literacies – information, digital and visual – amongst learners and staff Reaching and engaging today’s learners Encouraging innovation in learning and teaching with new technologies Advancing innovation in an era of budget cuts You do not have the permission to view this presentation.
