ITEC 8510  So Many Learning Models How Are They Different and What's the Best One? 

6/15/2016

3 Comments

 
Problem Based, Project Based, Inquiry Based, Flipped and, Blended/Hybrid Learning, so many questions about these instructional models. PBL –Problem or Project which is it? What is the difference between them all? Can you not incorporate them all into instruction and which of these instructional models is best for your students? 

All of these instructional models connect together and represent the trend in education to redevelop instructional design to meet the needs of the students. Personalized Learning is an incorporation of these models and allows students to develop the skills our students need today. A common thread in education is the need for education to be student centered, development of critical thinking skills, problem solving and real world applications.

The use of Flipped, Blend. Hybrid learning allows classroom time to be repurposed for collaboration and project work and time for the teacher to work student’s individually (Bergmann, Sams 2014). This use of these models allows: “No longer is class focused on information dissemination, but instead, time can be spent helping students with difficult concepts and extending the learning to deeper levels (Bergmann, Sams 2014). The use of these tools allows for deeper authentic learning to take place.

“Authentic learning is a pedagogical approach that situates learning tasks in the context of real-world situations, and in so doing, provides opportunities for learning by allowing students to experience the same problem-solving challenges in the curriculum as they do in their daily endeavors.” (Spector, et al, 1900). Authentic learning environments need to provide collaborative learning where, for example, more able partners can assist with scaffolding and coaching, and where teachers provide appropriate learning support” (Spector, et al 1914). What is the best approach in authentic learning?

The term “Project Based Learning”, I think is used many times in the wrong context. Students creating a project about what they are or have learned is not truly Project Based Learning. Research shows Project Based Learning should be: students learning knowledge to tackle realistic problems as they would be solved in the real world, increased student control over his or her learning, teachers serving as coaches and facilitators of inquiry and reflection and students working in groups (Barron, B., & Darling-Hammond, L. 2008). I found Inquiry Based learning is really the center of it all. “The basic tenet of inquiry learning is that students arrive at an understanding of the subject matter by engaging in self-directed investigations” (Spector, et al, 121).

Bergmann and Sams (2014) web post, Flipped-Learning Toolkit: Getting Everybody On Board rings so true not for just type of model. Education and learning are changing, how do we get parent and student commitment and buy in. My 8th grade students comment. Tells us what we need to know”. How do we obtain the mind shift from our stakeholders? What can we do as educators to get the stakeholders on board? We know where we want our students to be and what learning should look like in the classroom and at home but how do we get students and parents on the train?

“Authentic learning is a pedagogical approach that situates learning tasks in the context of real-world situations, and in so doing, provides opportunities for learning by allowing students to experience the same problem-solving challenges in the curriculum as they do in their daily endeavors (Spector et, al, 1900). Isn’t this this the end game, in all the terminology, models and trends this is the outcome of what we want learning to look like? It is the combination of authentic learning with the support of Flipped and Blended learning would be the most model which allows, collaboration, individualized teacher focused and retention of content and improve students' attitudes towards learning (Strobel & van Barneveld, 2009; Walker & Leary, 2009).
