Course OutlineCourse OutlineRecent Trends in K-12 Education As our education system eventually become mainstream in the classroom , finding the most effective ways to help students succeed in school – all in the face of tighter budgets and larger classroom sizes.

To equip teachers to digitally empower diverse learners to connect, communicate and collaborate

by creating a rich environment indulging technology in the classroom to help them evolve.

To facilitate learning in a more impactful manner by integrating technology to help make the world

a smaller place with interaction beyond the classroom and classmate to virtual trips and multi-region and multi-nation interactivity to

commence projects and work.

Goal / Purpose

- giving flexibility to redesign student centered learning in a more flexible K-12 education and aligning to the system to set high expectations and close achievement gaps.

Bridging the range of project-based learning opportunities within “phenomenon-based” curriculum redesign, relevant and meaningful to students and their communities by:-

- rethinking accountability for new learning models to modernize educators and leadership development to implement personalized learning and invest in research on the digital equity gap.

Online learning will hit the mainstream as K-12 education systems leverage technology to increase access to educational opportunities and seek improved equity.

Blended learning continues to dramatically change instructional models by providing real-time, data-driven instruction and opening up multiple pathways for students to learn.

However, the biggest shift will be driven by education systems moving toward personalization for each student’s unique needs, interests, passions and competency-based pathways.

Redefining success for students takes center stage as education leaders and practitioners ask communities ‘what a meaningful high school diploma looks like’ for students and the workforce

Investing in research to bridge the digital equity gap.

New Definitions of SuccessNew Definitions of Success-including knowledge, skills, social emotional intelligence and important dispositions for future success.

This requires rethinking the importance of student work evidence, bridging informal and formal learning, student exhibitions and portfolios.

Emotional Intelligence refers to a set of emotional and social skills and competencies that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves;

develop and maintain social relationships; cope with challenges; and use the information in emotions in effective and meaningful ways.

Emotional Intelligence in New Definition of Success

Educators and community leaders work together to bridge the range of meaningful project-based learning opportunities across education and communities within,..

“phenomenon-based” curriculum redesign, which is relevant and meaningful to students and their communities.

New Definitions of Success

“Phenomenon-based” Learning (PhenoBL) In PhenoBL, holistic real-world phenomena provide the starting point for learning.

The phenomena are studied as complete entities, in their real context, and the information and skills related to them are studied by crossing the boundaries between subjects. 

The starting point differs from the traditional school culture divided into subjects, where the things studied are often split into relatively small, separate parts (decontextualisation).

Phenomena are holistic topics like human, media and technology, water or energy.

1. Rethinking MeasurementsEducation systems begin to rethink addressing every student’s needs upon entry and benchmarking, as well as taking gateway measurements and exit exams more aligned to student needs.

Systems realize they need to design around “not yet proficient” students at every step of an academic career, while offering stronger student supports and educator supports in reaching success.

This drives the need for systemic changes that cross between education, social services and greater connectivism to communities’ needs.

New definitions of student success, including a broader conceptualization of evidence of student mastery, to include;

project-based learning with student exhibitions and redefining what success looks like at graduation.

Take 5!Have you ever attended a Seminar and seen

groups of teachers leave in the middle?

It's painful to watch, yet completely understandable. Often, they leave because the session was not what

they expected.

Student-Centered Learning: It Starts With the TeacherQuestion:When teachers and/or administrators attend learning experiences, what is the one non-negotiable expectation - without which the session failed?

Answer: Leaving with skills and strategies that can be used immediately to impact instruction and work-related responsibilities.

Achieving this goal means understanding what the participants value, and engaging them in those areas. Effective professional development caters to what teachers think will help them become more effective.

Likewise the students. The learners may not be allowed to leave the classroom when the instruction doesn't involve them, but there are many other ways that they check out.

Student-centered classrooms include students in planning, implementation, and assessments. Involving the learners in these decisions will place more work on them, which can be a good thing.

2. Student-Centered Environments (SCE)

Teachers must become comfortable with changing their leadership style from directive to consultative -- from "Do as I say" to "Based on your needs, let's co-develop and implement a plan of action.“

While content increases in complexity, the school environment does not change dramatically. Students experience math, science, English, and history, plus other subjects, and interact with education experts (teachers).

Give students the chance to take charge of activities, even when they may not quite have all the content skills.

Believe in Students' Capacity to Lead

Design, creativity, entrepreneurship, performance and innovation combine to foster some of the most student-centered educational environments.

This will empower students with voice and choice in how they learn, showing work on what they have learned and providing powerful, personalized learning experiences.

Personalized Professional Development managing change and their own PD every day,…

The old models of professional development for attending seminars selected by administrators on certain days is quickly becoming outdated.

Teachers are now learning on the go, in real-time, every day and situated in context.

3. Personalized Professional Development

“micro-credentialing” their informal and formal learning, much in the same way students do in next-gen learning models that are highly personalized.

The shift for educator roles in next-gen learning models requires some fundamental shifts in professional development models, where teachers are co-designing their own PD in real-time and…

To learn more about micro-credentialing, see Getting Smart’s podcast below:

“Rethinking Educator Professional Development with Micro-Credentials.

Micro-credentialing of the knowledge, skills and abilities developed will have long-term implications for teacher licensure and certification in the next decade.

Personalized Professional Development means identifying learning goals, how they will learn, what they will learn and when they will learn,-

-including a combination of blended, online learning, service-based learning and active workshops that are more hands-on in making the changes happen.

Education leaders are managing change at a frenzied pace (along with the rest of society’s leaders).

4. Managing Change

K-12 education environments are designed for slow reaction to change, but as the world changes and becomes a place that requires constant innovation -so must our leaders take on roles for managing change for continuous improvement.

“Innovation in education should be defined as making it easier for teachers and students to do the things THEY want to do. These are the innovations that succeed, scale and sustain.” – Rob Abel, USA

5. Data Informed Decisions + World-Class Standards

This creates a foundation and blueprint for new conceptions of student mastery as evidence moves beyond simple annual data points,-

to assessment of student readiness for next levels of learning, evidence and student work, college and career readiness and navigating life toward leadership and active citizenship..

Data poverty in K-12 education from the 1990s and 2000s, built a foundation for conversations around reform based on standards-based education.

Standards still matter to achieve world-class, internationally-benchmarked levels of learning but academics, skills and knowledge come together in new ways to support whole child development.

I repeat: world-class standards are critical for ensuring equity.

Input models of quality and accreditation are re-examined as evidence builds data-rich environments;

6. Balanced Approaches: Asking To What End

for exploring multiple measures of student outcomes and continuous improvement of systems using “balanced scorecard” approaches to ensure quality.

The balanced scorecard is a strategic planning and management system that is used extensively in business and industry, government, and nonprofit organizations worldwide

to align business activities to the vision and strategy of the organization, improve internal and external communications, and monitor organization ...

System designs shift to ask whether students are getting what they need in real time.

This shift works to align our systems to ensure our youth are being prepared for the jobs that emerge in the future, especially around design, innovation, robotics and new fields leveraging technology.

7. Programming, Robotics and the Maker Movement

The combination of the maker movement with robotics is important to foster innovation hubs in cities, as well as…

…much-needed, relevant educational experiences in K-12 which include coding and programming.

7. Programming, Robotics and the Maker Movement

Programming and innovative designs can and will change the world.

From Richmond, Virginia to Silicon Valley—the ability to code is taking on an unprecedented level of importance.

Schools are being designed with programming as a new language that students must know.

Whether it is built upon an hour of coding, maker challenges, and robotics competitions, students need important programming and coding skills to succeed in a digital economy.

Too often Instructional design models don’t focus on starting with the research on how students learn best. What goes on when students actually learn?

8. Neuroscience, Youth Development Research and How Kids Learn Best

Question: How do we design new models that build upon the research for how students learn best?

…the research for youth development theory and neuroscience in the design from the inception of planning and shaping new learning models.

Answer:An important trend will be to shape the conversation on innovation and new learning models based on…

Instructional Design:"the science and art of creating detailed specifications for the development, evaluation and maintenance of situations which facilitate learning and performance" –Richey, Klein & Tracey, The Instructional Design Knowledge Base: Theory, Research, and Practice, 2011, p. 3

In simpler terms, instructional design is:Designing instruction that is based on the research of how people learn.

Knowing when to use particular instructional strategies in the course of a learning event.  

Identifying what tools are best suited to meet a learning goalIdentifying where problems may arise in the implementation of instructionKnowing why instruction is/was effective or ineffective

Instructional design:

Neuroscience and the Importance of PSHE

The development of neuroscience, and the evidence of how the brain develops in adolescence, adds a strong case for the teaching of Personal Social Health Education (PSHE) in both primary and secondary schools.

It’s not very often that neuroscience and PSHE are placed in the same sentence but it’s time to remedy that. 

Neuroscience and the Importance of PSHEThere’s still an unhealthy scepticism about neuroscience. It’s in its infancy as far as scientific discovery – if compared with Newton’s Theory of Gravity or Einstein’s Theory of Relativity,

– but this doesn’t make it implausible or something that should be dismissed or ignored, and that is particularly so when we think of the type of education we are providing for our young people.

As devices become more ubiquitous, mobile learning for students and adults will support anywhere, anytime access to learning opportunities and open multiple pathways to learning.

9. Mobile Learning

Mobile learning is growing faster than ever globally. The instructional design of mobile learning requires that learning become more modular, contextual, and...

Powerful tools are needed to ensure learners can connect, collaborate and communicate effectively in an academic setting on the go.

“bite-sized” to provide flexibility and clear outcomes before moving to the next level of learning.

Although software application service models have been around for more than 30 years, the advent of tools such as Google provides for educators and,..

10. Cloud Computing  

…cloud computing is rapidly changing the field and models for deploying and leveraging technology in academic institutions and K-12 learning environments. Hosting is remote.

Take 5!Recent Trends in K-12 Education

Some say that this change has been a long time coming. There is an analogy that uses fairy tale

character Rip van Winkle to describe this;

He was a character in a Washington Irving short story who went to sleep before the American War of Independence and woke up twenty years later in an independent US A.

Near to the town, in a small cottage, lived Rip Van Winkle, known to all as a harmless, drinking, shiftless lout, who never would work, but roamed about, always ready with jest and song-Idling, tippling all day long.

He went to sleep to run away from his nagging wife, and woke up to find that his wife had died,...

Recent Trends in K-12 EducationRip van Winkle has just woken up from his 100 year slumber and stares in amazement about how much everything has changed in the time that he was asleep,

He almost did not recognize anything, until he went into a classroom. Rip van Winkle recognized immediately that it was a classroom because nothing much has changed in the K-12 educational system since he fell asleep in 1906.

Recent Trends in K-12 Education Thankfully, educators are starting to change with the times.

The trend in K-12 education these days is that learning institutions should try their best to keep up with the recent advances in technology to better teach their students.

The computer and the internet's evolution these past few years have been staggeringly fast. A computer that used to fill an entire building in 1965 has about the same computing power as a modern-day smart phone.

Most of the popular forms of media like TV, radio, and print are slowly being nudged from their pedestal by the internet.

Everything seems to have changed drastically these years, and this includes the K-12 education system.

Question on Recent Trends in K-12 Education

Over the years, we have seen trends in education come and go.

The best innovations in our education system eventually become mainstream in the classroom as teachers and school boards grapple with finding the most effective ways to help students succeed in school,

– all in the face of tighter budgets and larger classroom sizes.

Necessity however is said to be the mother of invention – and we couldn’t be more excited about the following trends we expect to see.

Here are some of the more recent trends in K-12 education today:

1.The Use of the Internet and Social Media as a Teaching Tool2.How the Condition of Educational Facilities Affect Performance3.Students Teaching Teachers4.Paying Close Attention to Each Students' Needs5. Better Assessment Methods6. Personalized Learning Experiences7. Flipped Learning8. Cloud Technologies9. Gamification

Recent Trends in K-12 Education

All students these days know how to use a computer and the internet, and most of them are using social media networks to share their thoughts and to support each other.

1.The Use of the Internet and Social Media as a Teaching Tool

Educators these days must know how to harness the power of the internet and social media to get in touch with their students, and hear their thoughts.

Basically the better the building's condition, the better the students and their teachers perform.

2. How the Condition of Educational Facilities Affect Performance

There was a survey done with different schools in the US as subjects, they sought to find out just how much of an impact a school building's condition and facilities affect the students and teachers.

And even the behavior of the teachers and how well they instruct their students seem to increase along with improvements in the school.

Some results point out that better facilities led to less truancy, smoking, and substance abuse in the students.

It was also determined that with better school buildings test scores rose up significantly.

Students perform better when they have the opportunity to tell their teachers what things in the classroom needs improvement.

3.Students Teaching Teachers

Contrary to the old belief that students are too young to know what they need, K-12 education systems now give the students the opportunity to give pointers to their teachers on how they can better deliver their lessons so that the students can understand.

It was also found that giving the students the chance in contributing and even revising the classroom rules actually make the students abide to them;..

..it gives them the feeling that they actually have a say on what goes in the classroom.

Students tend to follow the class rules now since they had a role in making the rules and regulations.

Educators are not looking at their class as a collective; they see them as different individuals with different needs, which is why some students lag behind the others when it comes to the lectures.

4. Paying Close Attention to Each Students' Needs

Educators can help these students keep up by giving them personalized attention that show the educational system in the country is improving and no longer stagnant.

Before you can properly help a student learn, it is best to know their exact areas of strength and weakness. The old style of pen and paper testing can only do so much.

5. Better Assessment Methods

Data driven, web-connected testing methods are opening up more range and flexibility in how we assess our students.

With more advanced assessment tools, comes the opportunity for teachers to better understand individual learning styles and develop more effective learning plans.

6. Personalized Learning Experiences

While tailoring lessons to individual styles will certainly be a challenge in a class of 30 or more students, small steps are being made in this area which could lead to more significant changes down the road.

Traditional education set up in which students listen to lectures in the classroom and then go home to complete an assignment or homework on that lecture.

7. Flipped Learning

The trend of flipped learning is literally turning that model on its head.

Students watched lectures online at home on their own pace, communicating with peers and teachers via online discussion.

They complete the assignments that would have traditionally been their “homework.” in the classroom the next day,

1st, it allows the teacher to be present and provide feedback, and 2nd, it allows students to collaborate – which will be an essential skill when they enter the workforce.

There are two main advantages of this strategy.

The classroom is no longer the only place where students and teachers can collaborate.

8. Cloud Technologies

More and more classrooms are also adopting the use of cloud technologies which allow regular interaction between learners and educators.

8. Cloud Technologies

and possibly prove beneficial to some who may not always feel comfortable raising their hand in class..

This freer and more open dialogue will undoubtedly help some students feel more connected to their learning environment,

Using games as a tool to motivate students and encourage learning is nothing new, but it has seen exponential growth in recent years due to the rise of technology such as smartphones, Apple watches and other interactive devices.

9. Gamification

By applying gaming principles to school coursework, some experts say that a student’s motivation to learn can be boosted by a phenomenal 90%.

By making learning an active activity rather than a passive one, interest, memory and motivation are all dramatically improved.

These trends that we expect to see really take off in the upcoming year, have the potential to revolutionize our education system.

2016 will truly be an exciting time for both students and educators.
