Can Reflection
Inhibit Learning?.
|
|
j.a.henry@open.ac.uk
|
|
This paper will
look at some of the implications of recent
findings in cognitive psychology and work
on well-being that suggest reflection does
not always offer the best route to learning.
It will discuss some experiments demonstrating
that conscious reflection can lags behind
unconscious know-how and can inhibit successful
problem solving. It will summarise some
of the main findings from studies of well-being
which suggest change strategies that are
not reliant on reflection or competency
building may have advantages. The paper
will conclude by suggesting that the pervasiveness
of strategies based round reflection and
competencies has led to the neglect of other
important routes for learning and achieving
greater well-being.

Bringing `community'
and service learning into the mainstream
of higher education: Implications for curriculum
innovation and pedagogy.
|
|
mcmillan@humanities.uct.ac.za
|
|
This paper aims
to explore the challenges of bringing experiential
learning into the mainstream of higher education
teaching, research and learning. In particular,
it will focus on the role of `service learning'
or accredited community-based learning as
a means to do this.
|
| |
|
The interest in
this topic comes from my current experience
of being part of a national community-higher
education-service-partnership project involving
eight universities in South Africa. The
aim of the project is the exploration and
institutionalisation of service learning
as a means of higher education transformation,
and community development and empowerment
through partnerships between universities,
communities and service organisations. The
project thus challenges us in higher education
to pay attention to the notion of `service'
in the context of learning and how this
can generate new and authentic forms of
accredited (experiential) learning. It also
challenges us to think about the contexts
in which students learn. Embarking on a
project that focuses on new forms of learning
and curriculum innovation - especially one
in which we wish for students and educators
alike to engage with `community' issues
- is a challenging task. This is true in
any context but perhaps particularly so
in a context like South Africa which is
grappling with change on a number of fronts.
|
| |
|
As someone with
a real interest in curriculum and learning,
I wish to reflect on some issues of pedagogy
and curriculum that I believe can point
to new frameworks for learning and teaching.
I am not offering them as concrete answers
but rather as a way to begin to think about
institutionalising new forms of experiential
learning. To achieve this, we need to find
ways in which `structured yet co-operative
and collaborative' experiential learning
can become part of our curricula. While
the challenges are great, such curriculum
innovation can begin to reflect the "bringing
of the outside inside" and play a role in
the reconstruction of educational practice.

Developing skills
teaching and learning using interactive
3D virtual environments and multimedia tools.
|
|
musiquarium_2000@yahoo.com
|
|
With
the fusion of computers and telecommunications
and the expansion of Web information has
grown exponentially around the world, which
has brought about the development of individual’s
skills for understanding and synthesizing
knowledge, applying them with effectiveness.
|
|
The
designing of information systems requires
the application of techniques from experimental
psychology like exploratory learning, which
is the combination of problem solving and
learning behavior, covering trail and error
and instruction taking activities (Reiman
& Young, 1996). Another technique employed
in information systems design comes from
ethnography and supports an investigator’s
insights about some context and time.
|
|
Several
educational documented examples, mass media
and Internet applications support the argument
of employing multimedia, virtual environments
and its 2D (HTML) and interactive 3D (VRML)
technologies for a high quality Education.
For instance, VRML is a language designed
to complement the communication inside Internet
environments in a creative, dynamic and
interactive way. HTML and VRML files are
portable, reusable, cost effective and support
integrated multimedia (audio and video files)(Ames,
1997). The use of standards languages for
acquiring knowledge and developing content
can form the basis for individuals’ creativity
expansion and cyberspace’s comprehension.
|
|
This
paper proposes that using multimedia and
3D virtual environments tools can enhance
the quality of teaching and learning, as
well improve communication among school
members (teachers and students) and the
outside community, developing individuals’
human and technical skills together.
|
|
Employing
the state of the art of technology and humanity
for sharing knowledge can improve respect
and communication in the human interaction,
as well generating, creative dynamic and
better prepared people for a good, effective
professional life (Franco, 2000). For achieving
these goals is fundamental that family,
school, public and private sectors work
together in a synergy network.
