There are three elements to unlearning and relearning. The first is knowledge for practice. This is a passive strategy. It lays the groundwork for gaining experience and it gives you shared information between your professional learning networks and professional learning communities. The next is knowledge in practice. This recognized the educators knowledge for improvement in the classroom. This is often referred to as "try it out and see if it works." You have to practice your opportunities so you can share your feedback with other educators who are looking to improve their practices in the classroom. The final element is knowledge of practice. This is collaborative. It allows or more deep learning and it goes beyond the classroom itself. This is more hypothetical and philosophical: asking many questions.Teachers often teach from the ways in which they themselves were taught in grade school/secondary school. They often revert back to that style of teaching, but it is not effective to children in our classrooms to necessarily teach how we were taught. With all the advanced research, we now know there is such thing as differentiated learning and that we should have a differentiated classroom. As teachers, we must unlearn how we were taught and relearn how to teach the new generation and the generations to come.
A lot of my teachers would teach in the same ways that they were taught. I didn't think that it was the worst thing in the world. Obviously it worked for them they believe that it can work for someone else.
ReplyDeleteVery informative and well written!
ReplyDeleteI like how you introduce this topic and you state your opinion about it as well as then going onto explain the process of what is happening and what should be done. I agree that teachers teach as they have been taught. It is learning by example. I love how you organize you blog! So nicely done!

ReplyDeleteI agree with what you said baout learning and unlearning. I think you did a good job ecplaining the meaning behind unlearning and good examples.
ReplyDeleteI like your post, I like that you took the time to explain the elements. I really enjoyed reading your post!!
ReplyDeleteI like how you thoroughly explained the process of unlearning. As educators we need to unlearn how our teachers taught, and think of ways we can teach to that student and differentiate.
