Project Zero, Future of Learning, Educating for Today and Tomorrow

Just wanted to get this posted--I'll put it in "events" too.

Educating for Today and Tomorrow:
Connecting Project Zero Research with Global Issues

February 12-14, 2010
Washington, DC


Throughlines for Project Zero Classroom

1. What are the components of an effective education for the world that students live in now and will live in 10, 20, or 50 years from now?
2. What is understanding, and how does it develop?
3. What are the roles of reflection and assessment in student and teacher learning?
4. How can participants share and pursue their understanding of Project Zero's ideas with others after the PZC?

Throughlines for Future of Learning

1. What do we know?
----What do we know about globalization, the digital revolution, and mind/brain research and their influence on learning and education?

2. How might we rethink learning?
----How do we need to rethink the what, who, and how of learning as a relult of these changes or forces?

3. What should we do?
----What should I and others do differently to meet the demands of the future of learning in practice?

4. What will these changes lead to?
----What consequences may such educational changes have for learners and societies? What is our role as responsible 21st century educators?

For adding photos: I suggest you go to the tab "my page" (which refers to your own personal page; you see the tab on the top once you're signed in) to add the photos you'd like to share--they will go into the pool of pictures on Fireside in addition to being part of your profile page's collection. IMPORTANT: TAG THE PICTURES "PZ"

It's all just an experiment--be playful.

These questions came out of David Perkins' talk today, "The Three Questions You Should Never Ask in Classrooms."

You can go ahead and start a forum, which is a question people reflect upon, and then respond to. Think of it as "stacking responses," ala David Wilson's research. Just post any questions as forums. Respond to the ones that move you.
