Education needs to prepare students for fast developments in society and technology. Some of these developments, such as those in Artificial Intelligence, proceed incredibly rapidly. Pedagogies that were used widely in the past are no longer suited to prepare students for many challenges of the future. Therefore, in many schools and universities new approaches to teaching and learning are being introduced. They aim to educate students to think independently, critically, and deeply about problems in and around their discipline, and to keep on learning and developing throughout their professional lives. They also aim to enable graduates to work independently and collaboratively, to engage with society, to contribute to understanding and solving complex problems, and to communicate with people from other disciplines and practitioners. Problem-based learning, project-based learning, personalized learning pathways, design-based learning, work-based learning, and challenge-based learning are some major innovative pedagogies that have been adopted to help students to attain these aims through better learning: more active, deep, self-regulated, intrinsically motivated, collaborative, interdisciplinary, meaning-oriented, and application-oriented learning. Innovative pedagogies like these require very different teacher roles than many are used to, such as tutor, skills assessor, problem designer, digital teacher, and coach of students’ learning, problem solving and collaboration processes. Often teachers are struggling with these new roles. Therefore, a variety of approaches to teacher professional learning and development are being developed to help them. In this keynote Jan will share new research on the design and effects of innovative pedagogies aimed at improving the quality of student learning and teacher professional development.Periode | 25 apr. 2024 |
