    WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources[edit]

    Ideas[edit]

    Model things you'd like to teach; this is a very effective way to teach.

    'See one, do one, teach one' in medical school training?

    Play as learning ... research scientists play.

    ... learning as input-processing-output, using a computer-as-metaphor 'model,' especially in the context of playing (as learning) ... where one definition of a computer is an input-output device which runs code ...

    iterativity / gradualism in any subject or area

    problem solving

    learn by doing ... via experience


    Connect with your teachers ... connect with your learners ... connect in many ways, communicatively, vis-a-vis learning and loving this. Be nurturing, tender and open ...


    Learning as practice is linguistically and culturally relative, e.g. the Japanese learn in ways that are different from Swedish people, which are different from ... people who speak some of the other 7,358 languages ...


    How to rif on incredible MIT OCW for geat fun and free degrees? ... Wiki is one way ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Wiki ... and open WUaS, with free bachelor, Ph.D., law and M.D. planned is another, and via reading, imagination and thinking ... :) And the Music School at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Music_School - may become another ... Conference Method is another ... http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2012/03/in-what-ways-could-we-all-improve-on.html ...


    nose in a book ... and Book buddies ...


    What would be hippy approaches to learning? (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Hippies)

    Home schooling?

    Active participation in your local public school

    Schooling within the tribe?

    Learning from the land?

    ... and computer based, as well, e.g. in the "The Next Whole Earth Catalog" ...


    "Starting January 1st, read a chapter per week and do the exercises. We will go through chapter 12. The first few chapters cover database basics and installing and connecting to MySQL, so if you cannot start exactly on January 1st, that’s fine. And you can do exercises ahead of time" - (https://blog.mozilla.org/it/2012/11/28/learn-mysql-for-free-during-a-virtual-self-study-group/).


    "... engagement, interactivity, learning by doing, and reflection that we know to be characteristics of learning" (Holford).


    "The key principles used in designing DragonBox are: Students learn more when they are engaged. The most important factor to learning is feedback. Feedback should be immediate to be effective. To feel mastery is key to staying motivated. Students should be presented with challenges that match their level of mastery. Students should be assessed in a formative, non-intrusive way. A safe environment is the key to learning. Peer learning is very effective. Discovery or experiential learning is much more effective than instructional-based teaching. Students learn differently and at different paces. The language we use to teach mathematics is a barrier to understanding." (http://dragonboxapp.com/story.html)

    "Learning results from what the student does and thinks and only from what the student does and thinks." —Herbert A. Simon (1916-2001)


    "That erroneous assumption is to the effect that the aim of public education is to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence, and so make them fit to discharge the duties of citizenship in an enlightened and independent manner. Nothing could be further from the truth.

    "The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all, it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians, pedagogues and other such mountebanks, and that is its aim everywhere else." - H L. Mencken
