Meeting Learners’
Changing Needs
ƒ Learning is an active, social process
ƒ Motivation is critical to effective learning
ƒ Learners bring different knowledge to a
new learning challenge and follow
different routes to the same learning
outcome
ƒ To be effective, knowledge should be
discovered as an authentic, integrated
whole
ƒ What does a truly personalised learning
environment look like?
ƒ How do we harness data and
technology to build it at scale?

The Power of Informal Learning:
Looking Beyond the Classroom
Informal learning is everywhere

Students only spend 14% of their
time in school

60% is with parents, friends and in
th community

ƒ
At work, employees learn 70% of
their job from colleagues
ƒ
Every hour of formal training is
matched to 4 hours of informal
learning

Leading Edge Learning Practice (1)
Leading-Edge
ƒ New partnerships delivering authentic learning
¾ In Indonesia, local companies and leading universities have partnered
with Cisco Networking Academy to deliver the Industry Attachment
Programme, providing strategic ICT advice to companies and providing
authentic learning experiences to students
ƒ Engaging
E
i
students
t d t using
i
gaming
i
technologies
t h l i
ƒ Risk-taking encourages motivation & learning
¾ Scotland has pioneered a games-based curriculum through its Consolarium
i iti ti
initiative,
with
ith positive
iti effects
ff t on student
t d t achievement,
hi
t engagement,
t
motivation and attendance.
ƒ Blending together a more sophisticated learning mix
ƒ Integrate learning that takes place outside traditional classroom settings,
whether at home, within local communities, or within the global
community
ƒ Learning can be formal or informal, reflecting either standard curricula or
learning that is learner-initiated
¾ In the UK, NotSchool has used blended models of learning to re-engage
excluded students, achieving
a 98 percent success rate

Leading Edge Learning Practice (2)
Leading-Edge
ƒ Richer assessments and evaluations
ƒ New forms of assessment, including development of e-portfolios,
e portfolios,
simulations, and formative assessment with immediate feedback
¾ Cisco, Intel and Microsoft have partnered with the University of
Melbourne and the OECD to launch ATC21S , a global effort to
develop new tests and standards for 21st century skills
¾ Denmark is piloting the use of computers in examinations,
measuring the use of knowledge rather than simply the ability to
recall
ƒ Data at all levels to deliver informed decisions and
personalised learning
¾ In New York City, the Achievement Reporting and Innovation System
(ARIS) tracks detailed student progress
¾ Internationally, the OECD PISA tests and their output have started
driving more informed education decision making at all levels of
government

Opportunity & Challenge
ƒ Considerable promise and opportunity
Improved results for more people with fewer
resources.
Re-professionalize teaching
Possibility of effective, data-driven decisions
ƒ Transforming systems to meet need
How does school learning have to change to
become a foundation, not an end?
Where else do students learn? How do we
embrace those modes?
How do we safely share physical and virtual
spaces?
How do we innovate?
How do we do this all at once...?
