Education Trends

10 TRENDs: Change in learning dynamics - Learning happens any where, any

time, any interaction, and any direction

1. Teacher-centric � Student-centric (Cater learner’s diversity)

2. Single measurement � Multi-dimensional assessment (Holistic assessment)

3. One-directional (spoon-feeding) � Bi-directional / Multi-directional

– Student learns from other students (SS)

13

– Student learns from other students (SS)

– Teacher learns from students (ST)

– Parent learns from students (SP)

4. Individual � Group collaboration (incl. cross-geographic)

5. Inside school (class) � Outside school (class) / Cross-school (local & global)

6. During school time (using MMLC) � Beyond school time (Student’s own device)

7. Structured / Formal � Explorative (Problem-based) / Social (Game-based)

8. Off-line (paper-based) � On-line (Internet/ Social media network)

9. Knowledge is king � Creativity is king

10. Text-based � Video-based

Potential Initiatives

1. Outdoor e-Learning activities

2. Cross-school Community of Practice (COP)

3. Students and parents workshop on IT literacy

4. Social media communication with parents

14

4. Social media communication with parents

5. Study on student / parent’s ICT environment (e.g.

computer’s power, speed of Internet access) at home

6. BYOD month

7. Advanced workshop on Edmodo

8. Flip the classroom (on-line digital content)

9. Open lessons – parents / teachers from other schools

10. Regional exchange on e-Learning

Cultivate IT Literacy. Parent’s

day to let parent understand

school’s adoption of IT in

education.

Not started: No adoption of e-Learning elements

Acquiring: Evidence of utilizing e-Learning elements in limited number of

topics occasionally. Usually learning happens in classroom and

infrequent use at home.

Mastering: Evidence of systematic use of e-Learning elements in majority

learning activities. Usually learning happens in classroom and at home

with occasional use in outside campus activities.

Optimizing: Evidence of strong integration between e-Learning elements

and curriculum. Regular acquisition of new e-Learning elements from

market and discharge of un-suitable elements.

Leading: Evidence of innovative use and creation of e-Learning elements

and tools. Regular sharing with other local and international education

professionals, media and stakeholders.

Recommendations after Lesson

Observation (28 & 29/5)

1. Bigger task for self-pace / plus optional tasks

2. For new/ difficult task, recommend to have bigger group (let students to help each

other)

3. For pair work, set “driver seat” and “navigator seat” to reduce shadowing effect

4. Use of Edmodo (instead of Lino) for sharing static information for individual

5. Use of a single Lino board (instead of multiple) for easy navigation and better

atmosphere

24

atmosphere

6. Use of Explain Everything for more creative tasks

(practice speaking through explaining concepts and ideas)

7. For time critical tasks (e.g. quiz), schedule it to appear and prepare for contingency

8. For quiz, if not for continuous assessment (i.e. sandbox style for guess and check),

could use anonymous access (e.g. NearPod) to reduce potentials of discouraging

students

9. For dis-engaged student, could use NearPod for synchronizing screens of students’

iPads and set classwork

10.For Dropbox folder structure, need to open appropriate sub-folders for easy

management and easy access
