LiveStream from a 21st C. School: Science Leadership Academy's Educon 2.1
Parents, students, teachers, administrators, and...science fiction nuts: If you want to see what this 21st century education can and does look like - but only in the few schools aware of it, like Philadelphia's Science Leadership Academy - then check out the SLA's Educon, currently underway and live-streamed below.
I count 69 presentations over the three-day event, from some of the most visionary minds in 21st century education. All of them are being live-streamed on 12 different channels, and archived if you want to watch them later. See the full program here. While they all look great, people new to the Learning 2.0 world might start by watching
- Chris Lehmann (principal of SLA, who blogs here), "Where Does It Live: Building Systems and Structures Around What You Believe"
- Will Richardson (his blog here), "What Will Classroom Learning Look Like?"
- Alec Couros (his blog here), "Knock Down the Walls: Towards a Model of Open Pedagogy"
- Patrick Higgins (his blog here), "Curriculum Re-Design: Where Does Bottom-Up Meet Top-Down?"
- Sylvia Martinez (her blog here), "What is Student Voice?"
I should have my head examined for starting that list. Gary Stager, David Warlick, and so many others are always worth a watch and read as well. Again, check out the full listings here.
I swear I'll pull some of these folks into this blog for future features or regular guest-blogging posts, even if it takes a hunger strike. They're that interesting.
The live-stream below is one of 12 channels, again. When it goes dead at the end of the event, you can find the full archive, um, somewhere here. (I'll clarify later.) Enjoy.
