Asked about why I used the word pedagogy instead of andragogy, I think it’s worth elaborating (since I already had in my reply ;) and sharing. So here’s my analysis of andragogy vs pedagogy. The post Andragogy vs Pedagogy appeared first on Learnlets.

In the previous blog post, The Pedagogy of Learning Design: Crafting Optimal E-Learning Spaces with Teaching Presence , we explored teaching presence - the design, development, management, facilitation, and direction within the learning space.

As part of that, I’ve been looking at elements such as pedagogy in pre-, in-, and post-class sessions so that there are principled reasons behind the design. Of course, there’s an introduction that both emotionally and cognitively prepares the learner for the coming learning experience. In thinking through how to design courses that lead to both engaging experiences and meaningful outcomes, I’ve been working on the component activities.

From ‘learning to improve your kissing technique’ to ‘learning to train your brain to be smarter’, as though all learning involves the architecture of human cognition in the same ways. Yet we know that this cannot be true; learning to ‘memorise knowledge’ for example, makes different cognitive demands on trainee teachers than learning how to ‘activate the artistry of others’, a key capability for teaching the arts and design.

More and more teachers are beginning to realise that creating environments and possibilities where students make things is a very powerful pedagogy. Seymour Papert ''s work on constructionism outlines the cognitive gain that occurs when we create something new rather than simply repeat knowledge that has already been acquired. American educator Jackie Gerstein makes some important observations about how teachers can change their perspectives and embrace maker pedagogy.

The other day, I discovered an interesting article, Presence Pedagogy: Teaching and Learning in a 3D Virtual Immersive World , which describes an educational approach for conducting a learning event in a virtual immersive environment. As the abstract to the article indicates: Presence Pedagogy is a way of teaching and learning that is grounded in social constructivist theory.

So, performance-based learning seems to be focused on assessment, having the students actively demonstrate their ability. This is, to me, an important aspect, as cognitive science recognizes that passing a knowledge test about something is not likely to transfer to the ability to do (we call it ‘inert knowledge’). I frankly want an activity-based pedagogy and curriculum to support all of these models.

The Cognitive Age - New York Times. We're moving into a more demanding cognitive age. But the cognitive age paradigm emphasizes psychology, culture and pedagogy - the specific processes that foster learning. In order to thrive, people are compelled to become better at absorbing, processing and combining information. The globalization paradigm emphasizes the fact that information can now travel 15,000 miles in an instant.

This is known as our ‘ pedagogy ’. Since the taxonomy’s first volume ( Handbook I: Cognitive ) was published in 1956, Bloom’s name has been synonymous with lesson planning for teachers across the world. In Handbook I , Bloom and his committee identified a number of cognitive levels at which humans can function. Bloom’s cognitive levels are commonly displayed as a step pyramid, with the lower-level functions located at the bottom.

I'm at Colchester Institute on Friday to present a workshop entitled: Communities, Spaces and Pedagogies for the Digital Age. In practice, if you put a number of people in the same room and set them a task, they will all apply their own individual knowledge and experience, and in so doing, the sum of the collective effort will be greater than that which each individual could bring to bear on the task - it's known as distributed cognition - that is, no-one can know everything.

For one, experts largely don’t have access to what they do, consciously, owing to the nature of our cognitive architecture. We compile information away, and research from the Cognitive Technology Group at the University of Southern California has estimated that 70% of what experts do isn’t available. The more tools that make it easy to do the right thing, rich pedagogies, the better.

Reduce Cognitive Load. Cognitive Load refers to the amount of working memory the brain can process. Here are a few ways to reduce cognitive load: Implement simple, clear navigation, that is intuitive and requires no thinking. . Most importantly, using a consistent template for each lesson is going to considerably reduce cognitive load, especially as students progress through the course, and allow them to focus on what is most important.

As politely as I could, I explained to him that making his students sit through a full 90 minutes of video was not particularly good pedagogy. The first is cognitive load - i.e. the amount of information we can process and absorb through our primary senses; in this case, our audio and visual channels. A closer look at cognitive load theory (Sweller, 1988 ) reveals that human processing relies predominantly on visual and auditory stimuli, but this is limited.

In addition to yesterday’s post about pedagogy , I also mentioned the need to get deeper on curriculum as well. From each chosen ‘task’ will be a suite of activities that comprise the pre-, in-, and post-class activities, but here we are focusing on the overall curriculum before we get into the individual pedagogy. The goal is to have them process the content in service of accomplishing the task, an approach more consonant with our cognitive architecture.

The first two levels, substitution and augmentation are often referred to as low levels of technology integration, in as much as they do not substantially impact upon or transform pedagogy. A key stage in any successful technology integration is to ensure that the affordances of new technologies are exploited by students for authentic learning outcomes and leveraged to be extensions of their natural cognitive and physical capabilities.

Salomon, an educational psychologist from Israel, was interested in studying the effects of technology on cognition and learning. Perhaps his greatest contribution to our knowledge about educational technology came in the form of his theory of transfer of learning (a theory that can be applied to learning through problem solving), but he also did extensive work into the optimal design of cognitive tools and learning environments.

There is nothing wrong with any of these approaches, provided they don''t get in the way of good pedagogy. The main problem with most MLEs is that they are so complex to use, students often spend more time and cognitive energy working out how to get to the content, than they do actually learning. Or is it because you have actually sat down and worked out what problems technology will solve, and how pedagogy will be enhanced by its introduction?
