Introduction Just as Margaret Mead once said "children must be taught how to think, not what to think" Nowadays technology is the most useful tool for our daily life and it has been improving with the purpose of implement the newest and sophisticated equipments to school and universities. There're many perspectives according to the topic, but students may be the most important point of view that should be considered. On this research paper we will get into how new technology will affect learning environment and how job opportunities after college will increase. We will also mention the impact of personalized learning in the future and discuss different opinions on how students imagine the university of the future. New technology implemented
Soft skills are crucial for the labour market and start being included in school curriculum in many countries in order to increase the student’s job readiness. While technical education methods in schools and in companies have been well documented, the interest on soft skills learning process is still relatively new. As a CEO, I have tried to create opportunities for my employees to develops theses skills, let me share some of my experience. Soft skills what are there? First it is important to define what are softs skills.
Learners are engaged in educational content in determining optimal instructional sequences in order to support the learning style of students 8) Administrators to understand the best way to extend the institutional resources both human and material for the overall development of educational system [4]. D. Limitation of Data Mining The research trend of Educational Data Mining shows that maximum research focuses only on academic objectives. The other issues are: [5]. • Incremental nature of educational data: The exponential increase of data makes the maintenance of the data in data warehouse very difficult. Also in the monitoring of the operational data sources, infer the student interest, intentions and its impact in a particular institution is the main issue.
Learners enrolled in tertiary education should have characteristics like Self-directed learning (SDL) to succeed in present digital environment. In today’s fast evolving world, the flow of information is very high and one need to learn throughout his life to achieve the goals. Therefore, it is necessary for a person to construct knowledge rather than memorizing or recording it. Self-motivation and self-management are the essential parts of the learning process which lead people to structure their own learning theories. Moshman and Schraw (1995) presented three metacognitive concepts which are tacit theory, informal theory, and formal theory that identify how a person develops its own learning techniques.
BOOK REVIEW: A NEW CULTURE OF LEARNING Evolution is a continuing and continuous process. The evolutionary principle can be described by cultural evolution`s distinction, but a social and individual learning. The evolution of education particularly as filtered through the prism of emerging technology and new type of media, like social media is something we are keenly interested in and something of increasing importance to society at large. From authors of Douglas Thomas and John Seely Brown comes a powerful and refreshing effort to approach the subject with equal parts insight, imagination and optimism in there book of “A new culture of learning cultivating imagination for a world of constant change” makes a complex case for a new kind of learning. “We are stuck in a mode in where we are using old system of understanding learning to try to understand these new forms and part of the disjoint means that we are missing some really important and
The main difficulty in implementation and success of integration comes from teachers and their willingness to spend more time in preparation, in discussion with colleagues and to change the basic approach to the problem. Students are to study in one or another way, but after initial intimidation, they will get used to integration. Author also discussed a very important remark that we can still heard very often “with integration, students have no time to go deeper in any particular field”. One of the major difficulties is also defined in this chapter- it is student assessment which need to be integrated as well. Without integrated assessment the process is not complete, and it only under the responsibility of
As school leaders, leaders should allow teachers with ample times to attend Professional Development yearly to make them stronger teachers. Professional Development provides moments that make teachers realize that there may be better ways to do it. Professional Development shows teachers strategies to teach subject matter even better. Sometimes, teachers feel best at teaching math and are assigned to teach reading or all subject matters during the day. When the teachers don’t have adequate skill in that subject matter, the students suffer most.
(1999) progressivism is a philosophy which pressures the idea that students are supposed to question their ideas by active experimentation. This was then supported by Knight, G. (2006) who stated that this philosophy depended fully on textbooks, passive learning through the act of memorization of information, the fear of serious punishment and so forth. In this type of education, the student is expected to be very involved in the educational process. Cohen, M, L.(1999) stated that the student should become their own problem solver through different experience they encountered which will then lead the students to become independent learners later on. This type of learning will be seen as effective since students are seen as being more active learners rather than passive.
By specifically attempting to be extroverted and outgoing to improve my learning process, I was yet impotent in acquiring guidance and assistance or being socially active with peers and teachers. “Help seeking can avert possible failure, maintain engagement, lead to task success, and increase the likelihood of long-term mastery and autonomous learning. Indeed, adaptive help seeking is a strategy of self-regulated learning. When engaged in difficult task on their own, students often must take the initiative to enlist the help of teachers and peers.” (Newman,2002). My concern being that help seeking is a vital component of learning as in interacting and engagement in class content.
The use of instructional materials to provide learning activities for practice and drill needs realistic guidelines for their application for classroom setting. Students will learn more easily and remember longer if they practice individually what they understand or have learned through prior classroom experiences. It is important for the teacher to provide a variety of interesting drill items and situations in which students can use the skill or knowledge in other phases of learning (Oredina, 2011). Since textbooks and other instructional materials have a direct impact on what is taught in schools and how it is taught, curriculum development and curriculum materials are sensitive matters which are of great political importance. This is why the book sector in industrialized countries receives both direct and indirect subsidies.
