GAFE Summit 2016 ... My Notes

Schedule Jaime Casap - education disrupts poverty - proximity to books as indicator - the world at your fingertips Why is learning different today? - We know a lot about what makes good learning ... it's scale that's the problem - Technology has wrapped itself around the core of our lives Therefore, How kids think about learning is different than the way we think about learning. We need to adapt! - What are the critical skills that kids need to have? Problem Solving, Team-work, Communication, Critical Thinking, Creativity Not what do you want to be when you grow up, but what problems to do you want to solve? Iteration - don't teach success and failure BUT iteration (No end point) There is a comfort in collaboration. My part is the part of a greater sum. If not at school, then where?? Converting information into intelligence ... What we need is consistent iteration and innovation. There is no end point! Session 1: Creating Innovative Learning Spaces
