Your personal coach for overcoming learning blocks
Coaching a person means understand how the individual works, his or her motivation, the way they learn, the obstacles they find in certain areas and finding a way to move forward in a collaborative effort. A lot of people drag themselves over time on a particular learning field, because they haven't so far found the way to move forward. They keep repeating the same learning patterns that have been proved unsuccessful just because they do not know of any other way. A key challenge at the start of a coaching relationship is helping the person identify the right problem to solve. It is essential to understand if it is a One-time problem or Pattern, if the problem is due to Circumstance or Attit...
Hacking the Humanities: A multimodal pedagogy for creativity and active citizenship.
“Hacking” means to adapt and make productive use out of a given technology or technological context. In this book it is illustrated an approach to what could be called “digital humanities”, that is the use of hacking in education with instructional technology, rather than completely relying on Technocentric Thinking, which is having the technology drive the whole process when one is working on expressing creatively oneself. This work celebrates a balance between a humanistic approach to learning by doing and the ever-pervading digital world of our present and future time. Revealed here are pedagogical strategies for enhancing motivation, creativity, and human interaction. Our investigation yields general principles in communication, storytelling and active citizenship that might help to orientate our educational system towards a more democratic and sustainable world, made of individuals more aware of their own possibilities, values, rights and responsibilities.
English for Creativity and Eco-Design
Equipped with a variety of visual organizers to describe relationships, processes and conveying a powerful message, this book introduces the skills required in the study of a scientific subject, in particular one connected to the environment. These language and visual skills are eventually used in project works based on lessons we can learn from the past and on actions to take towards a more responsible society. There are creative ways to learn and use your learning not only to know about a specific subject but also to use your new knowledge to make our planet a better place. This work shows instructors and learners how to ask themselves the right questions, scaffolding their inquiring process until they become independent, autonomous and socially responsible citizens. We are connected to the outside, and what happens outside a classroom should find a place in the learning activities organized in schools. When using Technology, we should be aware that it can also condition us. Emotions, critical thinking and other aspects of our human being should be integrated in order to have a holistic way to learn and use what we have learned.
One Painting is worth more than One thousand Short stories
Have you ever been to a museum and been captured by a particular painting? Felt like touching it, establishing a contact in order to discover what you might learn from it? What ideas, insights, or questions sprang to your mind? A single two-surfaced composition can be a source of inspiration and it has been so for many writers who expanded their initial attraction into a well-developed story that captured the attention of a multitude of readers. Why only them? Couldn’t also you be able to do like them and write a story after a painting that stimulated in you a particular reaction? If you see something in it that the artist did not imagine at the time, wouldn’t you like to add it to its v...
