The Learning Revolution: Its Power • Powerful forces are already changing practices of learning. • Our intent is to help people understand and amplify the changes that they are already participants.
The Learning Revolution: Its Limitations • Material Factors: Computational Tools, Connectivity. • Socio-cultural Factors: Peoples’ mindset about learning. • Institutional Factors: Forms of Schools.
We aim to • Identify mindsets that hold back the new forms of learning. • Implement examples that go against the paradigm. • Engage in discussion about the future of education. • Develop a framework of ideas.
Tools that fuel the change • “We can not guarantee that good things will happen when we give every child a computer. But, the computers are required for good things to happen.”–Seymour Papert • So, what are the kinds of tools that could facilitate radical changes in learning environments? • What makes it a powerful learning tool?
Environmental Sensing • Chemical sensors, GPS, RF, etc. • Data visualization • System thinking • Problem solving • Autonomous system
