Download or read book How People Learn written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-11 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First released in the Spring of 1999, How People Learn has been expanded to show how the theories and insights from the original book can translate into actions and practice, now making a real connection between classroom activities and learning behavior. This edition includes far-reaching suggestions for research that could increase the impact that classroom teaching has on actual learning. Like the original edition, this book offers exciting new research about the mind and the brain that provides answers to a number of compelling questions. When do infants begin to learn? How do experts learn and how is this different from non-experts? What can teachers and schools do-with curricula, classroom settings, and teaching methodsâ€"to help children learn most effectively? New evidence from many branches of science has significantly added to our understanding of what it means to know, from the neural processes that occur during learning to the influence of culture on what people see and absorb. How People Learn examines these findings and their implications for what we teach, how we teach it, and how we assess what our children learn. The book uses exemplary teaching to illustrate how approaches based on what we now know result in in-depth learning. This new knowledge calls into question concepts and practices firmly entrenched in our current education system. Topics include: How learning actually changes the physical structure of the brain. How existing knowledge affects what people notice and how they learn. What the thought processes of experts tell us about how to teach. The amazing learning potential of infants. The relationship of classroom learning and everyday settings of community and workplace. Learning needs and opportunities for teachers. A realistic look at the role of technology in education.

Download or read book Educating Engineers for Future Industrial Revolutions written by Michael E. Auer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains papers in the fields of collaborative learning, new learning models and applications, project-based learning, game-based education, educational virtual environments, computer-aided language learning (CALL) and teaching best practices. We are currently witnessing a significant transformation in the development of education and especially post-secondary education. To face these challenges, higher education has to find innovative ways to quickly respond to these new needs. There is also pressure by the new situation in regard to the Covid pandemic. These were the aims connected with the 23rd International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning (ICL2020), which was held online by University of Technology Tallinn, Estonia from 23 to 25 September 2020. Since its beginning in 1998, this conference is devoted to new approaches in learning with a focus on collaborative learning. Nowadays the ICL conferences are a forum of the exchange of relevant trends and research results as well as the presentation of practical experiences in Learning and Engineering Pedagogy. In this way, we try to bridge the gap between ‘pure’ scientific research and the everyday work of educators. Interested readership includes policymakers, academics, educators, researchers in pedagogy and learning theory, school teachers, learning industry, further and continuing education lecturers, etc.

Book excerpt: Abstract Industrial Design education must always endeavor to close the gap between academic experience and vocational relevance. To this end, students are trained how to use the latest tools available to the design community, such as 3-D software, computer rendering, rapid prototyping, and computer assisted manufacturing. Proficiency in this area of study reflects current requirements for entrance into the profession. This has been true for quite some time. In fact, enough time has gone by that design thinkers are evaluating the results of this training. It is at this time that a new light is cast upon an old debate; manual skills verses digital skills. This is not a debate regarding class or nostalgia. The bigger question that has come to light is: What gets lost when digital technologies replace physical drawing, model making, and prototyping? While industrial design programs still require some manual skills, some schools are emphasizing design processes, start-to-finish, that are hands-off. Students who focus solely on the mastery of screen work will miss the benefits of engaging the other five senses prevalent in physical work. These senses connect to the brain in a way that informs the students' multi-sensory design intelligence. When digital tools are used without this tactile experience, the head and hand are separated. Simulation can be a poor substitute for tactile experience. What is at stake is a false sense of security. Sophisticated rendering programs allow for powerful presentations, but can be misused if the seductive nature of the presentation arrives before solutions are built into the final design. Design students are better served learning how to discover problems rather than hide them behind communication imagery. CAD and rapid prototyping can suppress manufacturing difficulty. In design school, this may never be exposed. In professional practice, however, this gap is expressed. In the professional world, this false security is expensive, wasteful, and destructive. This is widely known because it occurs in professional practice every day. Why not instead train students to think like craftsmen? Education in any creative field must begin with questioning the absoluteness of the lived world. Students cannot do this by looking at a screen alone. They need empathy for materials and processes that are best learned through repetitive, concrete, hands-on training. Using well documented experiences with hands-on activities, a series of tests will be conducted which pit the designer's instincts against real-world applications. The drawings and diagrams common to initial conceptualization will be considered the beginning of product development, followed by hands-on conceptualization in the shop space. This activity will demonstrate that when designers consider the shop space as part of the problem-solving studio, the results will be notably different and unique to any other alternative or simulation. Initial results record a great sense of accomplishment preceded by frustration, on-the-fly changes in course, new-found empathy for the materials and rewriting the script or throwing it out completely. In essence, everything the designer does not know at the completion of hands-off conceptualization will come out in the experience of making. Instead of powering around roadblocks and worrying about deadlines, this effort will zoom in on the roadblocks in an attempt to understand hypothetical flaws. The outcome will be a fresh new approach to Industrial Design curriculum which emphasizes hands-on making and the importance of building a genuine sense of security in the overall design process. Hands-on making in a shop environment increases the overall potential of Industrial Design students by giving them the tools and knowledge exclusively available within the hands-on, (manual skills) experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technology has radically altered the way in which we live and work, but has not had a substantial impact on education. Ubiquitous Computing in Education explores the educational potential of ubiquitous computing initiatives that make digital tools available to students and teachers. Combining theory, research, and practice, this volume paints a broad picture of the field of ubiquitous computing in education, which focuses on the availability of digital tools for teachers and students to use anywhere and anytime to support teaching and learning. The book illustrates how to use theory and research to enhance technology integration, teaching practices, and student achievement. The significance of ubiquitous computing for teaching and learning is highlighted, as the text discusses why it is important, what it looks like, what the research tells us about it, and how ubiquitous computing can work in different types of learning environments today and in years to come. This book is of interest to researchers and graduate students in educational technology, as well as teachers, administrators, policymakers, and industry leaders who can use the text to make essential decisions related to their respective roles in education.
