Taylor & Francis Ltd Navigating the Pedagogical Space for Knowledge
Book SynopsisShowcasing the design and implementation of knowledge building pedagogy, this book for educators and education researchers illuminates this future-oriented instructional and learning approach. In this Knowledge Age, innovation and creative knowledge works are central to the progress of a society; increasing the productivity of knowledge workers remains the main priority of competitive societies. Consequently, developing knowledge building capacity among students becomes one main goal of education. Knowledge building aims to transform school education in a radical way by developing the culture of innovation and knowledge creation in classrooms, from preschools to universities. Knowledge building pedagogy focuses on sustaining idea improvement among students, who develop the collective cognitive responsibility to add value to the learning community. Developed since the 1990s, knowledge building is now a model of instructions researched and advanced with an international Trade Review"I am delighted to see the publication of this book by Seng Chee Tan, who has been working on knowledge building pedagogy for more than 20 years. I first met Tan in early 2000s in Singapore, and have been witnessing how the knowledge building community in Singapore grows over the years. Today, Singapore researchers and teachers are part of the Knowledge Building International, contributing to advancing research, practice, and public awareness of knowledge building. This book reflects Tan’s experience working with teachers, teaching graduate classes, and conducting research in K-12 schools and institutes of higher education. He has chosen the topics for this book—such as principle-based versus procedural-based design, and curriculum for knowledge building—based on his experience and understanding of challenges and struggles that teachers face when they are learning, designing and implementing knowledge building in their classrooms. These are issues pertinent to educators and educational researchers who are interested in knowledge building."-Marlene Scardamalia, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto"Seng Chee Tan and I share similar interest in innovative pedagogies and educational technology. I know that he has been experimenting with knowledge building in Singapore for more than two decades. His insights into the design and implementing issues related to knowledge building will be useful to other educators."-Chin-Chung Tsai, Chair Professor and Dean, National Taiwan Normal UniversityTable of ContentsSection A: Introduction to Knowledge Building 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Metacognition and Education Future Trends
Book SynopsisMetacognition is crucial to education in a changing world. The role of mobile applications, AI and global issues such as climate change make the need for developing learners with the ability to monitor and control their own thinking increasingly necessary. Metacognitive learners are learners who can draw on their own knowledge of their own thinking processes to optimise the conditions under which they learn best. Metacognitive learners are self-regulating and pro-active in motivating themselves to learn new skills. Metacognitive learners are strategic in terms of managing their own resources to get the best from every learning opportunity and to transfer that knowledge to new areas of work. This book is timely in demonstrating how metacognition research is addressing issues of importance in future education. The chapters are authored by an international group of scholars from four continents, who are experts in the field of metacognition and self regulation research. Drawing Table of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Understanding the role of mind wandering and mindfulness in creativity; 2. Who are the students in metacognition research in high school science education?

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Value of Drawing Instruction in the Visual
Book SynopsisBy applying philosophical and historical perspectives to drawing instruction, this volume demonstrates how diverse teaching methods contribute to cognitive and holistic development applicable within and beyond the visual arts.Offering a new perspective on the art and science of drawing, this text reveals the often-unrecognized benefits that drawing can have on the human mind, and thus argues for the importance of drawing instruction despite, and even due to contemporary digitalization. Given the predominance of visual information and digital media, visual thinking in and through drawing may be an essential skill for the future. As such, the book counters recent declines in drawing instruction to propose five Paradigms for teaching drawing as design, as seeing, as experience and experiment, as expression, and as a visual language with exemplary curricula for pre-K12 art and general education, pre-professional programs across the visual arts, and continuing education. Trade Review"The drawing activity (and its cousins: sketching, doodling, painting, design, calligraphy, sculpting) can be traced back in time at least to early cave paintings more than 30,000 years ago, or even to rock art hundreds of thousands of years ago. Drawing is at the birth of writing and the archiving of ideas, knowledge, giving us a more powerful means to extend our cognitive horizons than the mere oral traditions. Seymour Simmons brings back to the centre this fundamental activity necessary to each human's learning and development: each of us experiments and flexes our brain, in infancy, to learn about representing shapes, the world, and imagine and set theatrical scenarios, in large part through drawing. Simmons sets the stage for the next paradigm shift in education and beyond, in the current era dominated by computing and the scientific method: that of unleashing our creativity with the use of our body-mind through the various dimensions offered by drawing."-- Frederic Fol Leymarie, Professor of Arts Computing, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK"Seymour Simmons' book is a tour de force, covering the panorama of issues in drawing, the arts, education, philosophy-- indeed, what makes for a full life. The book may well be the best synthesis of Project Zero's contributions to artistic education and artistic knowledge."-- Howard Gardner, Hobbs Research Professor of Cognition and Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education, USA; Senior Director, Harvard Project Zero, and Ellen Winner, Professor of Psychology Emerita, Boston College, USA; Senior Research Associate, Harvard Project Zero"The drawing activity (and its cousins: sketching, doodling, painting, design, calligraphy, sculpting) can be traced back in time at least to early cave paintings more than 30,000 years ago, or even to rock art hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Telling the story of three years of classroom-based research with children aged two to seven, it shows the Helicopter Stories approach in action, capturing the children's development as storytellers and their delight at having their stories listened to, scribed and acted out.In each chapter Trisha Lee's passion for children's unique voices shines through as she shares and reflects on the children's stories, paying each of them the same respect as would normally be bestowed on adult writers. Exploring the importance of story in children's lives, the book: Examines the cognitive and developmental impact of implementing a Helicopter Stories approach over an extended time period Analyses the stories told by chilTrade Review‘Without imagination we are lost - from ourselves, the world and one another. This magical book is your map to the ’stories’ of childhood and a timely reminder to dream harder, bigger and brighter. Your children need you to read it.’ Greg Bottrill, author of Can I Go and Play Now – Rethinking the Early Years and School and the Magic of Children ‘Trisha Lee’s magical book, The Growth of a Storyteller, shows how the youngest children develop the ability to tell their own stories and act them out. Starting with two-year-olds, Trisha watched as they learned to expand their characters and plots, and she shows the reader why storytelling and story acting are such a valuable tool for the language development, social skills, and emotional well-being of all children.’ Jane Katch, author of Under Deadman’s Skin – Discovering the Meaning of Children’s Violent Play, They Don’t Like Me – Lessons on Bullying, and Far Away from the Tigers ‘This beautiful book is utterly captivating and should come with a warning that meals will go unprepared and dogs will go unwalked once you start reading it. A story in itself, it delivers theory and practical information and provides compelling evidence for the importance of ensuring that children’s voices are heard, and valued, now more than ever. I guarantee you will find yourself listening to children in a different way after reading this.’ Kym Scott, Early Years Consultant, and founder, A Place To Learn ‘Human beings are a storying species, get us together with a group of friends and we will all tell our stories. Trisha's work, which is inspired by the wonderful Vivian- Gussin- Paley, explores what it means to be a young storyteller and how the essential skills of storytelling develop when nurtured by skilled and knowledgeable adults.
