Churchill: Digital Resources for Learning by Daniela Kasalova
The first chapter
Digital resources for learning
technology-based multimedia
how people learn with the utility of such media in their activities
how such resources can be designed, developed and managed
Learning-Centered Education
Teacher-centered practice is learning of facts, memorizing information
learning-centered practice is more focused on working with information, learning of conceptual knowledge, problem solving, learning how to learn properly
new literacies which are also quite essential to take into account while making requirements for the transition
classification of digital resources of learning
Information display resource
variety of modes, use various organizers and innovative interfaces to facilitate information presentation and uses.
Presentation Resources
present certain information with the purpose of instructing learners and often expecting them to remember and/or understand the content presented
Practice Resources
to allow a learner to practice certain procedures, often repetitively, providing some form of feedback leading to an increase in understanding and performance
Concept Representation Resource
to represent disciplinary concepts from a curriculum, their properties, parameters and relationships that underline generalizations to be made or articulated by learners in their learning-centered activities
Data Display Resources
displays of data that can be used as mediating tools in activities leading to learning
What could be transferred from the book to your study field?
definitely the instruction on how to prepare teachers to become more learning-centered
I personally can imagine being an educator in the future (doing lectures in a library for example) and using his tips to prepare my lesson
I could help teacher stuff prepare for this inevitable change by teaching them how to educate kids in ways Churchill describes in the book
What practical suggestions would you give to your teachers and departments?
how to do research for their papers
teach them how to cite properly
talk to them about what happens after they lose the student status
how to be an adult basically
I can imagine taking this book and base that course on the facts, tips and knowledge it provides
The second chapter
information display resources
digital resource for learning
digital media that presents certain information
visual affordances of representational technologies
interactive affordances of representational technologies
how to design an information display digital resources for learning
how well the information is represented, organized and arranged
illustration
timeline
mindmaps
cartoons
comix
animations
videos
photos
effective organization and presentation of information by using visuals and other multiples forms of modalities
sound, text, color, lines, shapes, sizes of objects, pictures, animation, videos, symbols and icons
visuals allow the design of representations that communicate not just information, but also meanings, feelings and moods
visual learning via digital devices and how it works
enables the maximum amount of visual and other multimodal information to be presented in a minimal screen space
interactivity
vizualization
The third chapter
concept representation resources
particular kind of digital resource for learning designed to support the learning of disciplinary concepts
a learner to manipulate
properties
parameters
relationships
explore relevant information related to a concept
concept
a complex and genuine act of thought
psychological or intellectual tool
disciple-specific tool
framework or a schema it underlines theoretical thinking
concept learning
requires deep cognitive engagement
individual preconceptions
misconceptions tend to present obstacles
How do you think education will be different ten years from today?
I believe that physical textbooks will be long gone and tablets or e-readers will replace them completely
I have a feeling alternative schools will become more popular
they already use some learning-centered methods
It would be nice though if general schools changed to that method of teaching as well
