Hi Leigh here is the collection including my own perspectives also if any of you can use google translate read this http://mmdays.com/2008/02/03/future-education/ and this too http://mmdays.com/2008/02/13/re-future-education/
both are talking about the future of education and future of education So many people are talking about Elearning here in China , But I think they should really look at what teachers need in the classroom and what students reponse to this need ? 1 China is a courtry we are suffereing from the copyright problems so how can we protect people from publishing things on line and no protection for them ? y0u can buy DVD at street for 5 yuan now 2 Teacher feel the CMS and LMS are waste of time here , they don't find it is necessary for them to use the Online tools 3 Teachers are gernearlly low motivated here , especially in college level , most of teacher don't spend a lot of time on the lesson plan coz in high school the education are focus on the test ,and then students pass the test , they feel they are lost in college , especially some social scienece major students like art Literiature , or the studens I am teaching ( Mass media ) 4 The teachers are feeling like there are no Kill applilcation for teaching to really motivate them to look at some new ways of teaching or using some online resources 5 Teacher can use Flickr or Youtube or wikipedia ,but sadly those of free content are all blocked here once in a while , sometimes it is okay but most of times it is not , so technical barrier Again , The future of edcuation , the idea of free content are still not popular or being hated here maybe I am too cynical , but I believe that we should look at things from teacher's perpective ,and trying to bring changes to one school and another one , one by one , make small difference at one time Leo On Feb 20, 8:10 am, "Leigh Blackall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Leo, can you collect up the poor feedback and send it through numbered 1, > 2, 3 etc? > > As for the other questions, I think others can try and answer that better > than I can. > > On Feb 20, 2008 7:30 AM, leolaoshi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > Hi all , > > > This is Leo , I want to ask a question which is has been hiding in for > > a while , the question is why WE choose Learn4content as the title of > > the workshop ? > > > 1 Learning with content ,or learn for content ? > > 2 about donating one free content back , what is also behind this > > idea , it seems not only the user-generated content , or as the way I > > see it , but how do we view the people like most of my students would > > ask themselves , why we need to donate back to it ? how can we use > > L4content idea better in our teaching sorry I am a college teacher . > > 3 Another research idea or question I believe that all the real > > reserach question should not be neutral , should be in some degree > > "biased" , so what is the Bias to WE , are WE also biased in some > > students of learning style , the same with Web2.0 so called networked > > learning I have been reading something on WE , and Wayne also keep > > pushing me back to read what I have done before in WE , which is very > > important for me now to come to an clusion ( hopefully not to jumpe to > > conclusion ) that WE Does have some kinda Bias , but good thing WE did > > a good balance thing and the commuity really make a big difference > > here > > 4 I have tried to introduce WE project to my Chinese friend mostly > > people I never met in real life , but sorry very poor feedback ,but I > > am going to still trying hard to do this , > > 5 I am thinking about using some concept from WE in my teaching next > > semster , any perpective or example of using WE idea in teaching I > > would be really interested to hear > > 6 By the way I got a mail offlist from this google group , and she > > told me that she know me from this list ,and ask me if I want to be > > friend with her or him , WOW WE has the function of social networking > > now <smile> > > > Any feedback would be greatly appreciated > > > Leo from China > > >http://wikieducator.org/user:leolaoshi > > -- > -- > Leigh Blackall > +64(0)21736539 > skype - leigh_blackall > SL - Leroy Goalposthttp://learnonline.wordpress.com- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text - --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
