Dear all,
here's a ppt I drafted based on a rigorous review done by our
consultant, Res. Dir. A. Verevi concerning the critical reflections of
employing DT in schools so far (i.e. without digital technologies)
if u agree we could discuss it as part (a slot) of the workshop or even
in a special meeting or both
in it you will find links to videos concerning and showcasing DT in
schools (which can be used in the workshop addressing teachers), the
list of references from which the review was drawn and a last slide with
some bullets pointing to ways in which we can use this info to show why
the extendt2 'solution' can address the criticisms and go far beyond the
state of the art for DT in schools
there's 3 layers, the first slide (n.2) is the theme titles, then
another layer (nos. 3-6) with one page for each theme and then
analytical slides with the points in each theme
of course, the extendt2 'solution' is something to be built and refined
by all so consider this as a clunky start if u like
we can undertake to write up an academic version of this review and
include it in a respective deliverable but this will take some time as u
can imagine
so - thanks to Alkistis
best regards
c
btw - Alkisti's expertise is educational sociology
ps - maybe we should do the same for digital media in education, i.e. a
critical review and show how the extendt2 solution addresses some of
those problems? just a thought. this would mean that extendt2 addresses
the problems of each of the DTs individually by means of bringing them
together in a unique form of integration to form dt2
Dear all,
Hope you are well, in the roadmap of publications doc https://docs.google.com/document/d/1a8eOpdMNTXBlxsRbRx2JRbQKVLNU0Yj1PxRFO4x… I expressed interest in writing a paper about:
“What is the impact of engaging with design thinking on students' critical thinking, reflection, and empathy?”
I’m thinking of collating survey data from across partners and conduct a statistical analysis of pre/post responses considering for contextual factors such as country, school type, student performance, age, gender. This will address some of the criticism we received from mis4TEL reviewers last year regarding the paper we published and which we addressed by adding the below:
“In addition, we aim to address two limitations of this study: a) analyse data considering for the sample’s heterogeneity e.g, different ages,
backgrounds, school type, locations, enabling comparisons between e.g., different types of schools, and an understanding of the conditions under which the proposed intervention may work (or not) well”
Would you be interested in contributing? Pls let me know and I can draft a plan with activities and meetings to take this forward.
Best,
Thea
