On Boarding - Rhythm and Pacing of Course
Our DISRUPT journey runs like this -
On Weekly Learning:
By Wednesday: Every week we have a face to face (fsf) session on Wednesday at 8 - 9pm (GMT +8)
Before the f2f session, please do complete the preview materials and bring your questions and ideas - feel free to write comments under the lessons too.
By Friday: After the fsf session, please complete the reflection prompt by Friday evening as a Discussion Post. This will give you and other teachers time to respond to those reflections.
Before the next Wed: Please respond to at least 2 persons' reflections before our next f2f session.
There are extension materials for each module if you'd like to dig deeper into the topics/themes in a more scholarly way. These are not mandatory but can aid your overall understanding of what DISRUPT is about.
On Learning Application:
True learning happens when we transfer and try to apply knowledge to real world contexts.During this course, each person (or form a group) is encouraged to create an evidence of learning. This could be
a. re-designing a unit plan/lesson plans embedding CEL/DISRUPT
b. a short video exploring a topic/issue or news article using CEL/DISRUPT
c. a dramatization of how to hold a robust conversation with someone using CEL?DISRUPT
d. a social media initiative showcasing use of CEL/DISRUPT
e. any other creative application
You will submit your ideas in Week 5 and get feedback. In the last f2f session on Week 8 it's show time!
At any time you encounter glitches or snafus, please be patient and feel free to write for support - support@wonder-educationreimagined.org
Please watch the next video by Prof Ha Joon Chang (previously professor at Cambridge, now at SOAS) on why economics is for everyone. It really is!
