La classe inversée n'a pas réponse à tout Il y a eu les Mooc, il y a désormais la classe inversée. Si la méthode n'est pas vraiment nouvelle, elle suscite l'intérêt d'une communauté enseignante de plus en plus attentive à la pédagogie dans l'enseignement supérieur. Preuve s'il en faut : les ateliers sur le sujet ont fait salle comble lors d'un colloque organisé à Brest du 15 au 17 juin 2015 sur les questions pédagogiques. Des étudiants plus actifs À AgroParisTech, Valérie Camel a transformé une partie de ses cours magistraux en classe inversée, en licence 3 et master 1. Côté étudiants, c’est plutôt un succès : "Ils trouvent l’approche novatrice et formatrice, mais cela leur demande plus de temps de travail qu’un cours traditionnel", décrit Valérie Camel. Des cours difficiles à étudier seuls, en amont À l’École de biologie industrielle, Nathalie Guilbert, enseignante en procédés, a pratiqué plusieurs expériences sur différentes tailles de classe, notamment en petits groupes de TD d'une vingtaine d'étudiants.
A Place for Learning: The Physical Environment of Classrooms I was supervising a teacher who was enrolled in our program at the University of Massachusetts Amherst that focused on developing student self-knowledge, ego strength, trust and community in classrooms. We had created a manual with over 50 classroom lessons. She was teaching at a high school in an economically depressed district in northern Appalachia. She called me in a state of frustration. "I've used dozens of the exercises you guys developed, and they're not the least bit interested. Students Take Ownership So I visited the class. I suggested that she ditch the exercises and work with the class to totally change the physical environment. They spent six weeks doing little else. There are at least two lessons from this story. The physical structure of a classroom is a critical variable in affecting student morale and learning. The Custodian’s Favorite Arrangement Here's a related story.

Vikidia Transforming the school library for innovative learning The joy of reading is something that stays with someone for life and for many, this joy has its roots in the school library. Reading for pleasure is also inextricably linked with higher achievement and social mobility, making the school library a place of great importance in a child’s life. While the end goal is the same, the layout of today’s library has changed considerably from even a few years ago to accommodate high demand for technology and the shift from a quiet space to a learning hub for both groups and individuals. It is imperative, therefore, that the design and resourcing of the school library is meticulously planned by those with expert knowledge. School News spoke to industry insiders for advice on refitting the school library. Consider your space Start by looking at your space, advises Scott Reed from Resource Furniture, suppliers to hundreds of school libraries across Australia.

The School Librarian as Learning Alchemist The landscape of learning is changing. Children and young adults learn not only in school but fluidly across home, school, peer culture, and community. This transformation in learning and the school environment has prompted educators to ask challenging questions about how to develop learning spaces to meet these needs within the sometimes competing economic, social, and political realities. At the same time, school librarians continue to serve their communities by linking children, young adults, and teachers with both the information they need and the skills to use it. We’ve identified three trends that we see as most affecting the role of the school librarian in the near future. Information on demand In the near future, there will be a significant reduction in physical library space and collections. Even as some schools move to virtual collections, the opportunities for school librarians to influence learning will actually increase. Connected learning The school librarian of the future

Emerging technologies such as cloud computing, augmented reality (AR) and 3D printing are paving the way for the future of education in ways we may have yet to see. At the very least though, we can extrapolate from what these promising technologies and predict how schools will adopt them in time to come.
