Pedagogy of Simultaneity (PoS)

(Out of the classroom)

Why PoS (i.e. trust, discussion and collage)?

!

Layered reality - time layers, - space/place layers - presence layers

!

- Emergence - becoming of knowledge, skills, resources ... everything ... curriculum, subjects, methods ... learning, learners, teaching, teachers ... technology ...

- Complexity - multi-factored, multi-explained (ambiguous), multi-experienced

- Humaneness - presence-absence of emotions, thoughts and intentions

By trust, discussion and collage to learning in movement (mobile), in authentic realms and activities,

out of the class !
