Authentiek leren voor de 21ste eeuw

Marilyn M. Lombardi heeft onlangs een paper geschreven voor het Educause Learning Initiative: Authentic Learning for the 21st Century: An Overview. Lombardi benadrukt het belang van authentiek leren, leren door te doen en ‘connection-building’, waarbij zij veel mogelijkheden ziet voor nieuwe technologieën.

Thanks to the emergence of a new set of technological tools, we can offer students a more authentic learning experience based on experimentation and action. With the help of the Internet and a variety of communication, visualization, and simulation technologies, large numbers of undergraduates can begin to reconstruct the past, observe phenomena using remote instruments, and make valuable connections with mentors around the world. With access to online research communities, learners are able to gain a deeper sense of a discipline as a special “culture” shaped by specific ways of seeing and interpreting the world.
