Widening participation

Learning
A process of active engagement with experience. It is what people do when they want to make sense of the world. It may involve an increase in knowledge or understanding, a deepening of values or the capacity to reflect. Effective learning will lead to change, development and a desire to learn more.
(Campaign for Learning)

Learning
Abbott (1994) defines learning as:
…that reflective activity which enables the learner to draw upon previous experience to understand and evaluate the present, so as to shape future action and formulate new knowledge
![Page 6: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Features highlighted by Abbott’s definition include:
An active process in which the learner relates new experience to existing meaning, and may accommodate and assimilate new ideasPast, present and future are connected, although a linear connection is not assumed: un-learning and re-learning may be impliedThe process is influenced by the use to which learning is put: how the learning informs action in future situations is vital

Lifelong LearningContinuation of learning
beyond formal education

L2L
Not about telling
Information is not enough
About ‘shifting’ human beings
About skills, process and behaviour
A model of how we learn
A set of deep learning strategies
A language to discuss the process of learning
Ditching reliance on short-term memory
![Page 9: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Learning to Learn (L2L)A process of discovery about learning. It involves a set of principles and skills which, if understood and used, help learners learn more effectively and so become learners for life. At its heart is the belief that learning is learnable. (CfL)
![Page 10: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Learning is learnable
• Old idea - intelligence is fixed• Research into the brain - mind is improvable• Intelligence is - ‘the sum total of habits of mind’
Resnick• Intelligence is - ‘knowing what to do when you don’t
know what to do’ Piaget• Getting stuck is the liberating point, when learning
begins• The key - know that learning is learnable
- live that possibility in all your interaction with students

L2L: A moment of promise…
• knowing - learning
• proving - improving
• converging - diverging
• systems - people
• more - less
• non-sense - common sense
![Page 12: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Key points emerging
• Yesterday’s thinking doesn’t solve today’s problems
• Text based learning has a very limited shelf life
• Spoon feeding teaches us nothing but the shape of the spoon (E.M.Foster)
![Page 13: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ELLI’s seven ‘learning dimensions’
1. Growth orientation v being stuck and static
2. Meaning making v data accumulation
3. Critical curiosity v passivity
4. Creativity v rule bound
5. Learning relationships v isolation
6. Strategic awareness v robotic
7. Resilience v dependence

The 4Rs
• Resilience being ready, willing and able to lock on to learning
![Page 15: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The 4Rs• Resourcefulness
being ready, willing and able to learn in different ways
![Page 16: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The 4Rs• Reflectiveness
being ready, willing and able to become more strategic about learning
![Page 17: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The 4Rs• Reciprocity
being ready, willing and able to learn alone and with others

Being a good learner
Being a good real-life learner means knowing what is worth learning; what you are good (and not so good) at learning; who can help; how to face confusion without getting upset; and what the best learning tool is for the job at hand. Just as being a reader involves much more than simply being able to read, so ‘being a learner’ means enjoying learning, and seeing yourself as a learner, seeking out learning as well a knowing how to go about it.
(Claxton, 2002)

Planned learning interventions
• Explicit talk about learning• Mind mapping and concept
development• Scaffolding meaning• Self-assessment• Explicit learning objectives
and review

Planned learning interventions
• Time for reflection
• Real life problems and learning
• Teamwork and learning relationship challenges
• Creating opportunities for problem solving
• Differentiated learning outcomes
![Page 26: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Some key ideas
• Making the learning process explicit
• Using ‘stuckness’ as a site of interest
• Using twin focused tasks
- curriculum content
- learning capacities
![Page 27: Teaching for Learning Power Making it happen in higher education Dr Linda Rush.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d2a5503460f949fe99b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Some key ideas
• Developing a language for learning
• Lecturer as coach
• Using ‘could be’ language
• Establishing a learner research partnership between
• Students and teachers
• Nurturing creativity
