Module 6 Blog: Philosophy of Learning

Through the learning theory of Connectivism, students can bring their life into the classroom.Teachers and students should learn from one another. Learning should take place in the classroom and in the real world. A person's experience and environment should be considered in connecting it to learning in the classroom. Making the connection of learned concepts being used in the real world will enhance a student's knowledge and help them incorporate the concept at any time.

Sharing ideas for teaching and learning can be effective for the teacher's and students' knowledge. Teachers and students should plan and implement shared ideas for all learned concepts to connect students' and teacher's prior knowledge to the textbook. Using technology to incorporate in the classroom will allow students to see information outside the textbook. Technology will support the connection between the real world and the learned concepts. Technology skills, techniques, and equipment can be taught and learned between teacher and student. Learning should be connection of life and school. Teacher and students learn from one another to enhance the learned concepts that is being introduced, developed, and practiced in the classroom.

I tried to post to these Bogs. I will try again later today.

Before this class, I believe in Connectivism before knowing the official name. Connecting the students' environment and experiences is very important to teaching and learning. If a teacher can do so, this make education effective and make students ready for real world situations.

It is very important to show students what is in the real world. It is important to show that what they learn in the classroom will be useful in the real world. Technology is not going anywhere, it is just going to be more. We as educators need to introduce it to the students and assist them in applying to their lives now before going into the work world. Connecting technology, learned cocnepts,and real world issues enahances students' knowledge at all times.
