Welcome to
Education We Want

|
Dear Ed Leader
|
|
The 'best' is nearly not enough. We need to increasingly distinguish between
|
|
|
Doing old things in old ways (traditional teacher led, class dynamic
education) from
Doing old things in new ways (traditional education with a dash
of inquiry, constructivism, multiple intelligences, cooperative learning, etc.),
to
Doing new things in new ways (fundamental changes including use
of 'compete with yourself' ethics, etc.).

Transformation Going from 'Best' to the 'Next'
|
|
|
|
If we want a new outcome, it is clear we need to do things differently,
and we also need to do different things. But what are these new and different things,
and where is the evidence that they work?
|
|
|
|
What is the relative effectiveness of 130 plus educational interventions / factors
that define good and not so good outcome from an education? What does international
research and meta-analysis show in terms of effectiveness of these existing and
new factors? What are the absolute NO's in education and what are the must do's?
Hear from those involved in the world's largest meta-analysis of research on education!
|
|
|
|
How do we compare the 'best' and the 'next' set of practices and move forward trusting
all these will improve our children's well-being, nurture their self-esteem and,
confidence, make learning more joyful and meaningful, and at the same time, boost
their academic outcome, the minimum goal of any 'good' school. Hear from individuals
who have led changes in their own countries, this despite the fact their countries
have produced the best academic results!

Service Learning The missing factor in schooling
|
|
|
|
Service Learning that provides real-world learning experiences, according to research,
is an important predictor of academic outcome, including student attachment to school,
school engagement and motivation to learn.
