Workshop Aims --to explore some questions, offer some ways forward and raise more questions.
• Why Global Learning?.....don’t we have enough to do?• How does my thinking affect my teaching and learning?• How might world change affect the way I learn and teach?• What are the inhibitors to seizing global opportunities?• Why should the digital revolution change our learning?• Why is BRIC becoming MINT and is it important?• What lessons can we learn from others…?• How do I develop as a learner in this world?• What can it mean for our pupils?• What can it mean for our world?• And what can we do next….?

Health Warnings• Beware of searching for ideas that confirm your own philosophy• Ensure approaches will survive cultural movement• Look at the data for evidence• Take responsible risks• Remember CEOP –digital dangers• Look for medium and longer term impact• Involve others to ensure you are challenged• Don’t feel guilty• Take responsible risks• Always challenge your own thinking

First influence --Your brain- your thinking
![Page 8: Opportunities for Global Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568164cc550346895dd6efeb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What kind of learner, thinker are you?
• “Everything that takes place in your classroom….is down to some form of electro-chemical combustion taking place between the ears –yours and theirs….the more you know about it ,the more you can ensure you are doing the right thing to influence it for the better….”
• Male brain 9% larger than female!• Female brain more connected!• Experience, learning and emotion strengthen and develop neural networks• Environment and stress impact on brain chemistry• Development of language is key to inner development• Metacognition is unique to humans• The teenage brain is particularly susceptible to novelty• Teens also crave structure and organization• Feedback improves the brain’s efficiency

The Learning Factory• Schools were the repository of knowledge and information• Teachers held the key to the knowledge cupboard• Pupils came in empty were filled, measured and sent out and
took up their allotted place in society• Now there is open access to more knowledge and information
than we can comprehend• Exponential change means we don’t even know what content
our students will require• We know they will need incredibly agile minds and personal
learning skills if they are to thrive.

Marc Prensky

Facing the challenges of the Future
“For children, the central business of school is not learning, whatever this vague term means; it is getting these vague daily tasks done, or at least out of the way, with a minimum of effort and unpleasantness.”
John Holt - How Children Fail (1964)

What can be done to add to our Global curriculum?
• Look for accreditation – gives structure and self review• International School Award http
://schoolsonline.britishcouncil.org/accreditation-and-awards/International-School-Award• Safe social networking edmodo https://www.edmodo.com 34 million teachers and students
and can be used for classroom links• Khan Academy https://www.khanacademy.org free world class education for all• Erasmus + (the new Comenius) https://www.erasmusplus.org.uk/about-erasmusplus training
staff abroad, opportunities for pupils – look for 2015 bid dates

The “I” has it.• Introspection –what can we build on, where are the gaps, why
is it important?• Investigate –what is out there, TSI family- short, medium,long
term opportunities, resource implications• Involve -all staff, pupils,wider community• Innovate – think and act creatively, take responsible risks• Implement -measure differences—if possible!• Introspection – learn from the experience, move forward

Dee Hock
“What if we set aside all discussion of things as they were, as they are
and as they might become and
concentrated on what they ought to be”
![Page 31: Opportunities for Global Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568164cc550346895dd6efeb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Some final thoughts• The world continues its exponential change—how does that affect learning?• Our children will live and work in a series of pan global networks• How are we preparing them for this?• How strong is our challenge to inertia and insularity?• Is there a digital divide between our teachers and our students?• Do we inhibit connectivity?• Are we still teaching languages only in theory not real experience?• Do we see a need for global learning?• Can we learn from other countries?• Are we appropriate risk takers?• Do we really investigate, innovate and implement world wide learning?• Are we excited as learners ourselves?• How might our thinking be developed by looking outwards?• Will I do something now?
