I really like the idea of using our blogs to showcase the process of learning rather than the mastered learning. I like the idea of publishing raw ideas ready to get feedback all the way along. He is right in the momentum being great at the start. I notice this with comments as well. The sooner the kids see the comments the more impact they get from them.

Hi Danielle
ReplyDelete"Repurposing" of work that has been published on the internet...was an interesting concept that I got from this talk. Not in a polished state, work that has been published (brain dumped as he called it) for later editing/polishing/repurposing etc.
Great video find!
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Danielle
ReplyDeleteI agree, using our blogs to showcase the learning process would be really powerful for children. We can already see the impact via the 100WC where children who enter this get immediate feedback on their writing.
Publishing samples in pure draft form, "raw ideas", and receiving feedback would be powerful. I guess it would also depend on the quality of feedback they receive.
He says 'publish' is difficult for teachers to understand and this is true. I guess it's a very different reason for posting work on a blog; is it a finished sample or just a snapshot of their thoughts in 'raw form".

Hi Danielle
ReplyDeleteI can see how this would support learning as most children crave feedback and I think we can easily get into the trap of presenting work when we could be utilising our blog followers or quads to give feedback to shape their work.
