Home Sweet Home...Welcome to my wild and wacky Wikispace...

My name is Margaret Davis. This is my last class at EWU. I will be graduating this Fall with a Masters in Adult Education. Currently, I am an instructor at Interface College. The medical adminstrative curriculum I currently teach is undergoing a transformation from traditional classroom structure to a hybrid traditional-online structure. One criticism I have from my students as we make this transition is the lack of connectedness with me. I hope to use the tools I learn in this class to engage my students without having me in the classroom. One of things they miss is my colorful humor...the following eludes to my sense of humor...Enjoy!

This is an ideal learning model to teach students how to get a job because it is a real life problem that they will encounter. Problem-based learning is student-centered, and the teacher becomes a facilitator in the learning process. PBL makes an essential shift from a focus on teaching to a focus on learning. The PBL process uses the power of bona fide problem solving to engage students and enhance their learning and incentive to succeed. For example: students will be motivated to learn how to write a resume, cover letter, and to learn job interview skills because it is a real situation they want to succeed at. There are some unique aspects that define the PBL approach: <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman';">Problem-based Learning is a six step process.

Lasswell (1902-1978) was an American political scientist who is known chiefly for his studies of political terminology, his application of psychology to politics, and his attempt to construct a system of politics modeled on theories of the natural sciences. He is also known for his comments on communications. He believed that different types of media had different types of effects because of the varied distribution and readership.
 * __Learning Model for Learning Space__**
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">Learning takes place within the contexts of authentic tasks, issues, and problems--that are aligned with real-world concerns.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">In a PBL course, students and the instructor become colearners, coplanners, coproducers, and coevaluators as they design, implement, and continually refine their curricula.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">The PBL approach is grounded in solid academic research on learning and on the best practices that promote it. This approach stimulates students to take responsibility for their own learning, since there are few lectures, no structured sequence of assigned readings, and so on.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">PBL is unique in that it fosters collaboration among students, stresses the development of problem solving skills within the context of professional practice, promotes effective reasoning and self-directed learning, and is aimed at increasing motivation for life-long learning.
 * <span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">2 **<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">. List what is known. Student groups list what they know about the scenario. This information is kept under the heading: "What do we know?" This may include data from the situation as well as information based on prior knowledge.
 * <span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">3 **<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">. Develop a problem statement. A problem statement should come from the students' analysis of what they know. The problem statement will probably have to be refined as new information is discovered and brought to bear on the situation. Typical problem statements may be based on discrepant events, incongruities, anomalies, or stated needs of a client.
 * <span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">4 **<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">. List what is needed. Presented with a problem, students will need to find information to fill in missing gaps. A second list is prepared under the heading: "What do we need to know?" These questions will guide searches that may take place on-line, in the library, and in other out-of-class searches.
 * <span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">5 **<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">. List possible actions, recommendations, solutions, or hypotheses. Under the heading: "What should we do?" students list actions to be taken (e.g., questioning an expert), and formulate and test tentative hypotheses.
 * <span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">6 **<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">. Present and support the solution. As part of closure, teachers may require students to communicate, orally and/or in writing, their findings and recommendations. The product should include the problem statement, questions, data gathered, analysis of data, and support for solutions or recommendations based on the data analysis.

Harold Lasswell developed a model that is useful to analyze most media such as magazines, websites, news, advertising, radio, and television:

· Who says: identify sender of message

· What: content, message itself, the meaning

· To whom: intended/targeted audience, age, gender, class etc.

· In what way: style, language, image, sound, color, pacing etc.

· With what effect? outcome, impact, influence

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; msobidifontsize: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msolist: Ignore;">1. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">To which century does our teaching/learning belong? I believe that we need to reside in both the industrial age (19th/20th century) and the information age (21st century). While we have a tendency to shun the industrial age as a totalitarian or controlling system, there are sometimes that teachers need to use these techniques. However, I am not advocating this use exclusively; but, to blend it with technology, teaching methodologies, and 21st century fluencies to provide a more well rounded teacher and student. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; msobidifontsize: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msolist: Ignore;"> 2. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What does it mean to be fluent in the 21st century? What are 21st century skills and/or fluencies? The job market of today is vastly different than the job market of even 20 years ago. Long ago are the days after WWII where a man would get a job and retire with a full pension and a gold watch. Most adults will have to adapt to the ever changing work environment, if not new and emerging careers, using 21st century skills will make this transition smoother. In my classroom, I teach students that while it is important to know their content, it is almost more important to enhance their soft skills. This helps them manage the changes that occur with more frequency in the work place. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; msobidifontsize: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msolist: Ignore;"> 3. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What are the characteristics of 21st century learning environments? Learners? Instructors? A 21st century learning environment is very dynamic and ever changing. Most of my students have not been in school for years and simply using a computer to learn is a new adventure. Part of my goal as an instructor is not only get them comfortable with using a computer for more than email and surfing the Internet, but using new technology that they have never encountered before and give them the knowledge that this to will change and they need to be prepared for it. I would say to summarize the characteristics—change and ability to work together are essential to surviving and thriving in this brave new world. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; msobidifontsize: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msolist: Ignore;"> 4. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What are the elements of constructivist learning environments, and how are they (or not) related to 21st century learning environments? Some elements are student-centered learning, differentiated instruction, and real world problem solving. These are related to a 21st century learning environment by using dynamic and changing instructional methodologies and materials to suite the individual student. This requires the ability to change and grow for both the student and the teacher. Using the tools available in the 21st century learning environment also requires change and growth. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; msobidifontsize: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; msofareastfontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msolist: Ignore;"> 5. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif'; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Identify an instructional model that describes as a process whereby learners engage 21st century fluencies.
