TED Prize winner works with Dulwich College Puxi students
Sugata Mitra is a Professor of Educational Technology at the School of Education, Communication and Language Sciences at Newcastle University, England. He won the TED Prize for his work on School in the Cloud.
Sugata’s view which we share wholeheartedly is that modern schooling looks much like it did 300 years ago. The teacher in front of a class and the students in orderly desks — but with the rise of the Internet, memorization of facts just isn't as important. For the jobs of the future, students need to learn how to think critically.
Sugata’s goal which we are adopting here at Dulwich College Puxi is to share the Self-Organized Learning Environment (SOLE) method and transform the way students learn. At Dulwich College Puxi, we practice SOLE as a Core Curriculum Activity. Our SOLE leader, Mrs Leonard encourages students to work as a community to answer questions using computers with internet access. SOLE works around a guiding set of rules:
Students need to form groups
Students choose their own groups
They can change groups at any time
Children can look to see what other groups are doing and take that information back to their own group
They should be ready to present their answers back to the class at the end of the session
苏伽特·米特拉是英国纽卡斯尔大学教育传理和语言科学学院的教育科技教授。他著名的“墙上的洞”实验和他的文学与教育均被广泛引用。米特拉教授的云上的学校项目更荣获2013年TED大奖。
我们与米特拉教授有着共同的观点，现代教育和三百年前分别不大。老师在教室前任教，学生工整的坐在书桌前聆听，但随着互联网的兴起，背诵已将不像以前那么重要。未来的工作，学生需要学习如果进行判断思维。德威浦西和米特拉教授的目标一致，与家长，老师，课后活动和世界社区分享自我管理学习环境（SOLE）方法，已达到改变学生学习习惯。德威浦西把SOLE作为核心活动课程。Mrs Leonard SOLE主导老师鼓励学生团体合作，并透过电脑和互联网寻求答案。班级会根据以下规则运作：
学生需要组队
学生需要自行选择团队
他们可以随时换组
学生可以参考其他组别工作并把资讯带回自己团队分享
他们可以再课堂末与全班分享答案。
