Last week's #whatisschool chat was particularly
inspirational. This Twitter chat has attracted a global audience of
educators, innovators and transformers. I am filled with hope and envision an
endless array of possibilities as Twitter connects educators and technology
connects learners. My vision includes global collaboration and problem
solving, and I know I am not alone.
Last week's chat birthed the idea for a Global Show and
Tell of "How We Learn." There is a lot of talk (in the
U.S. anyway) about the way other countries approach this and do that. It would
be so amazing to see video sharing of examples of learning from around the
world. I dream of a future where lesson plans evolve away from written to-do
lists and transform into carefully-constructed and thoughtfully-prepared learning environments. For this reason, I would *love* to get a glimpse of the learning
environments happening concurrently in various lands.
Here is an initial brainstorm for a Global Show and Tell of
"How we learn..."
How we learn to read
How we learn to add
How we learn kindness
What are your ideas?
How we learn to____
I would be honored if you included your ideas on this Google
Doc!
Twitter chats are something else. Teachers, if you want a
major dose of professional development at its best, from the experience of
passionate educators, you will find it with a chat. If you are an educator or
just interested in education, check one out. Three pioneer educators of
Twitterverse, @thomascmurray, @cevans5095,
and @cybraryman1, keep
the chats up to date on the Weekly Twitter Chat Times Google Doc.
I hope to chat with you soon if
we haven't already!
You'll find me frequently participating in
