A  new  OU  network  connec-ng  researchers,  prac--oners,  futures  analysts  and  other  stakeholders    

to  envision  and  create  be<er  educa-onal  futures  

70-strong R&D lab prototyping the near future (2-5 yrs) of technology for the OU and our

research partners — next generation internet, learning, collaboration and search

My bit of the OU… Knowledge Media Institute

3 things I do which you might be interested in

•  Collective Intelligence: making people smarter by connecting who they know and what they know

•  Mapping Dialogue & Debate: scaffolding individuals and groups in making sense of messy problems and complex debates

•  C21 transferable learning dispositions and skills: tools grounded in “learning power”

they are, what they are working on, and what they’re learning •  Demonstrator site for Open Education movement: http://ci.olnet.org •  (Watch the intro movies)

Teaching Yr 8’s evidence-based scientific deliberation through Dialogue Mapping

Evidence-Based Dialogue Maps as a Research Tool to Investigate the Quality of School Pupils’ Scientific Argumentation, International Journal of Research and Method in Education, 31(3), pp. 291–315 (Special Issue: Coffin, C. and O’Halloran, K.A, (Eds.)

Once the structure of the argument is clear

(even if the answer isn’t) students produce an argumentative text

Mapping a “scientific argument” on National Front website (“Negro IQ”)

“What are the facts? Over almost seventy years, in study after study, conducted by scientists and educationalists in numerous countries, studies conducted by such bastions of racial rationalism as the Inner London Education Authority, the US Army, and Harvard and

Oxford Universities, on every measure of intellectual ability and educational attainment Blacks perform significantly worse, on average, than Whites. In the case of average IQ, for example, the average Negro figure is only 85% of the White average. In fact the higher the proportion of

White genes the higher the intelligence: a pure-bred Negro fresh out of Africa scores nearer 70%.”

Readers can consult Race by Dr. John R. Baker, former Reader in Cytology at Oxford University, published by the Oxford University Press, or The Testing of Negro Intelligence, an exhaustive review of hundreds of studies demonstrating racial differences in intellectual ability by Dr. Audrey M. Shuey, and of course there is The Bell Curve by Herrnstein and Murray.
