Learning Intelligence (LQ)

The use of Electronics Technologies for

Learning

Some Systems and Technologies

Needs Systems and Technologies

To offer resources to students, to

assess students, and to manage

their learning progress.

Learning Management System

(Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas, Edmodo)

To interact with students in class Classroom/lab control system

(Language lab, NetSupport school, iClass,

iClicker, IPAD etc.)

To allow students to do self-directed

learning

Mass Open Online Course (MooC)

EDX, Coursera, Canvas

Udemy, Khan's academy, Treehouse

To support students to do learning

projects or presentations

Tablets/phones, social learning

platforms

Microsoft Sway, Apple iBook,

To support innovative pedagogies

such as Flipped Classroom

LMS / MooC Platforms, presentation tools

To support students learning on-the-

go.

Mobile learning and e-Book platforms

What are the stages/promises?

Support Learning

Extend Learning

Transform Learning

To enhance our teaching and learning

process by making it more efficient and

effective.

To extend students’ learning horizons

by offering optional learning resources

and/or challenging learning projects.

To transform the teaching and learning

paradigms with innovative pedagogies,

to nurture students into proactive and express

2. Teacher – Teaching

Has to cover everything, i.e., most time spent on

explaining the basic stuffs.

Low student engagement (<20% efficiency).

3. Student – Homework

Big jump from listening to doing (without

practice)

Student answer questions instead of asking

questions.

My First-Hand Experience

Lesson outline Student Preparation

Question 1 – What do you think are the benefits of

learning in groups?

Question 2 – How do you like group

presentations?

Question 3 – How do you like teacher feedback

after your presentation?

Question 4 – How do you like the new Teaching

and Learning model?

Summary

Students have enhanced their learning skills,

presentation skills, and discussion skills.

Teacher can focus more on high-order

exchanges instead of covering the basics.

Students think video tutorials could further

help their learning.

u-Learning

Learning Intelligence (LQ)

What is u-Learning?

u-Learning stands for Ubiquitous learning,

meaning that learners “can learn” any time,

any where, with any device, from any one.

Ubiquitous Learning is a counterpart to the

concept 'ubiquitous computing*', but one which

seeks to put the needs and dynamics

of learning ahead of the technologies that may

support learning -- Ubiquitous Learning: An International Journal

*Mark Weiser, ubiquitous computing 1988

To nurture the Digital Citizens

The United States National Forum on Information Literacy

defines information literacy as "... the ability to know when

there is a need for information, to be able to identify, locate,

evaluate, and effectively use that information for the issue or

problem at hand."[1][2]

Other definitions incorporate aspects of "skepticism,

judgment, free thinking, questioning, and

understanding..."[3]or incorporate competencies that an

informed citizen of an information society ought to possess to

participate intelligently and actively in that society.[4]

How could we

educate them?

Fast and Instant Response

Multi-tasking and Non-linear

Visual and Graphical

Social Network and Cooperation

Just-in-time Learning

Want to explore themselves

Seeks meaning and values

Digital Citizens

My Learning Journey

Finding #1 – One can learn anything

Learning Intelligence

Lang Sport Music Emo

SQLQ MQ EQ

Learning Intelligence (LQ)

Learning Wisdom智慧 Learning Capabilities能力 Learning Methods方法

When we continue to learn -

to read, to understand, to

think, to relate, to imagine, …

Our brain becomes stronger

and stronger, and we can

learn and think better and

better.

Form 2After 12 monthsAfter 18 months

Finding #2 – Right process, results follow

Finding #3 – Learning takes effort

Tasks with thinking。Try to pay attention in class

。Try to understand and solve problem

。Try to recall something

。Exercise the brain, need effort

Tasks without thinking。Watch TV / Movie

。Play simple action computer game

。Brush teeth, drive the same road to school.

Finding #4 – Strategic repetitions

Neurons / Synapses

The average human brain

has about 100 billion

neurons.

Each neuron has a 1000

connections to other

neurons.

When we learn:- Generates new connections

- Strengthens repeat connections

- Weakens conflict connections

32

Artificial Neural Network

To model a neural network

with a computer program.

Instead of programming

the rules and instructions,

we offer various inputs with

many iterations.

The hidden nodes will then

store the pattern of inputs.

When a new input is given,

the corresponding output

will be generated!

Finding #5 – Challenge the limit

Finding #6 – Step-by-Step

Finding #7 – Appreciates the value of

learning

To nurture a child to lead and serve in our

next generation.

My Favorite Bible Verse

Genesis 12:1-2

The LORD had said to Abram, “I will make

you into a great nation, and I will bless you;

I will make your name great,

and you will be a blessing. … and all

peoples on earth will be blessed through

you.”
