5 Excellent Strategies to Teach Students how to Learn

5 Excellent Strategies to Teach Students how to Learn | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

" Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day but teach him to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime " this quip summarizes the essence of education and learning. Teach students how to learn and they will learn for the rest of their lives.The focus should be on the process not the end product, but unfortunately today's educational system with its emphasis on high stake tests and standardized assessment puts the cart in front of the horse and turn students into empty pails that require filling up each time they are to pass a test.


To redress the situation and empower our students with the learning and social skills they need to thrive in tomorrow's job market, inquiry based learning is the answer.

In a school with no name… A boy stirs restlessly in his chair. He is 8 years old and has a sharp, penetrating look. He attends a rural school in a small town. It could be almost anywhere in the world.

Lessons in Learning to Learn

Lessons in Learning to Learn | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Should we be teaching children how to learn as well as what to learn? Well, duh! as the children say.

 

This task they struggle with, despite prompts from the teacher. ‘Haven’t you learnt anything??’ The student perception that nothing is learnt at school is a telling indictment of our content-driven curriculum which turns a budding 11 year old learner into a passive, spoon-fed test taker by 16.

 

Little wonder that we despair of our post-16 student’s ability to think for themselves at AS level.

 

The idea for the ‘learning to learn’ lessons developed from early work with raising standards groups in Year 11 where accelerated learning techniques and learning style strategies seemed to improve confidence and performance. My theory was why don’t we catch them before the rot sets in?

 

Trying to create a ‘learning’ school at a successful well-established comprehensive with a stable staff profile has been fascinating and a truly ‘learning’ experience. We have made some progress, we have had some resistance from staff but, most importantly, the students have really enjoyed the experience.

Jamie Nast/Flickr Helping students learn how to learn: That's what most educators strive for, and that's the goal of inquiry learning. 


That skill transfers to other academic subject areas and even to the workplace where employers have consistently said that they want creative, innovative and adaptive thinkers. Inquiry learning is an integrated approach that includes kinds of learning: content, literacy, information literacy, learning how to learn, and social or collaborative skills.


===> Students think about the choices they make throughout the process and the way they feel as they learn. <===


Those observations are as important as the content they learn or the projects they create.

20 Tips To Promote A Self-Directed Classroom Culture

 

It’s an age-old saying, “Give a man a fish, and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and feed him for a lifetime.”

 

What separates good teachers from the excellent ones? The excellent ones are handing out fishing poles; creating a culture in the classroom of independence and self-reliance.

 

These students don’t just recite facts or regurgitate information- they have learned how to learn. They know that if the answer isn’t in front of them, they have the tools to do the investigation and research.

Learning to Learn is a MUST in the 21st Century to manage the BIG DATA and to be prepared for a "Life Long Learning"!

Try answering these questions before you watch:

What defines great teachers or school leaders?What makes a great education system?How do you help a group of people to sustain an open and curious mind to teaching and learning?What defines a vibrant learning culture?How would you rate yourself in regards to professional learning and development? Are you making steady progress, should you pick up your game?What responsibility do school leaders have to their staff?
