An Analogy
• Learning is like a problem or a puzzle to be solved. You need to take all the relevant pieces and arrange them into a coherent picture, a coherent story.
• So, what are the relevant pieces or skills for solving learning problems?
• Imagine a set of Tangram pieces each of which represents an essential learning how to learn skill and can open doors to successful learning.

The pieces of a learning story
Purpose (Your goal; the outcome you seek)Operations (How you will achieve the goal through
Processing and Transforming Information and Ideas)Remembering (Holding information in Working Memory and
Storing and Retrieving it from Long Term Memory)Team Work (Solving problems with help from others)Action (What you do to demonstrate and disseminate your
answer)Laying a Foundation (All problems are about something—
the content—the information and ideas)Self-Management (You are in charge!)

Ev
Everybody has stories about learning.
Each learner’s stories are different…
because
learners are different over time and from one another
tasks are different
contexts are different!

Putting the Pieces Togetherto Honor Differences in Learners,
Tasks, and Contexts

Imagine designing a learning plan
where different pieces/skills or combination of skills are the focus. Maybe Jane needs to focus on purpose and self-management
because she doesn’t see an assigned task as meaningful.Maybe Jim needs to focus remembering abstract
information and ideas so he can turn them into action.
Maybe….can you compose stories for your students who find learning challenging?

Creating Your Learning Story
*Somebody (You as a Self-Managed learner and your Teammates in this particular context)
*Wanted (your Purpose)
^Operations (processing (particularly Remembering) and transforming content) that lead to Action.
^Content-- Lay a Foundation of information and ideas.
*But (to be a problem, there must be obstacles)
*So (to be a solution, obstacles must be overcome!) Brought to you by: www.Explorience1.pbworks.com
