This really made me think about the need to customize the syllabus and bring clarity in the understanding of the learning and what we expect from them.
meta-cognition is indeed related to the amount of time one spends on learning and learning tasks. my daughter often says that she already knows it when she is given a learning task. throw her a few questions and she quickly realises how little or how wrong is her understanding. a possible cause for the behaviour is poor meta-cognition but i believe that there is another reason of avoidance perceived difficult learning, e.g. learning to vibrato in violin playing, learning to explain observations with scientific theories.
Indeed. I was fortunate enough to know her when we were students at the University of London, and a more affable, intelligent person one could not wish to meet. She also introduced me to cous-cous, which I'd previously never heard of. This is trivial, I know, but nonetheless I'll be forever in her debt for having done so :)
The science museum where I work just posted an activity for teachers to help students with technical reading skills. I thought people might be interested. You can go to the MOST's website and look for it under the Educators Toolbox section.
We’ve been having conversations with an increasing number of smaller organizations that are considering getting their feet wet in the big sea of eLearning. Most have the same questions: Where do we start; How do we get going; and What should we keep in mind as we gain traction? Here my responses to those (and a few other frequently asked questions) for eLearning newbies. www.createonlineacademy.com/blog/are-you-new-to-elearning/
Prof. Jennifer Summit gives an enlightened talk and a glimpse of her bright mind. Thank you Stanford!

Inspired me to further work on my evaluation techniques.

I'm India 🇮🇳 Proud of you Education🎓🎓🎓🎓
Good point about small quizzes and other mini-steps on the ladder to engagement
Jennifer is absolutely lovely!

they complain, were in despair; student goals were? To get great grades. It seems that they understand pretty well.

student goals
This is a really good talk !
teaching for learning, and learning for learning - is the same or different?
Really amazing i love this
