Reality vs the portrait of EdTech - #edtalk

Reality vs the portrait of EdTech - #edtalk
Dean Groom, Playable, 2016/12/09
Dean Groom comments circumspectly about a phenomenon that has long existed in ed tech, the self-promotion of people in social media by people seeking to become recognized as authorities by dint of claiming ownership over words and inventions, forming self-referential circles of non-competitive entrepreneurs, and domination of various Twitter hastag discussions He writes, "It is a deliberate practice of seeking illusory power and influence based on nothing more than entertainment, names and naming." And it causes real harm. More...

Frederick County’s Call to Administrators: Focus on the “Innovator” and “Early Adopter” Teachers, First
Kevin Cuppett, EdSurge, 2016/12/08
I am asked this question a lot: how do we convince staff in our institution or district to adopt an innovation?

Educational Content Development Process in "CleverUniversity": Our Dynamic Adaptive Hypermedia Environment

Educational Content Development Process in "CleverUniversity": Our Dynamic Adaptive Hypermedia Environment
Ahmed Bouchboua, Rabah Ouremchi, Mohammed El Ghazi, International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (IJET), 2016/12/08
This is a pretty good paper, though readers will no doubt find significant flaws. The authors propose an architecture for a CleverUniversity learning management system based on modeling and then matching resources across three sets of models: the domain model, which classifies and orders the subject of enquiry; the learner's model, which classifies learning styles, and the pedagogic model, which proposes a set of teaching frameworks.

My Adult Learning Principles for the 21st Century

My Adult Learning Principles for the 21st Century
Kristin Glavis, HASTAC, 2016/12/07
I like this article by Kristin Glavis, a student at Saint Joseph's University. She outlines three major principles of adult learning that have guided her through her education:

Self-confidence - "confidence in their abilities, good self-esteem, support from others, and trust in others" (Merriam, Caffarella, & Baumgartner).
Experience - "people draw from their experiences in all aspects of their life—not just in the formal education setting."
Adaptability - "Adult learners seek out educational opportunities because they want to learn- they’re self-directed."

These are not going to be found on any formal curriculum, but they are at the heart of effective learning at any age. More...
