Title: The Paradigm Shift: "From teaching to learning"
Description: Emphasis on teaching as a form of conveying knowledge has resulted in students who imitate the patterns of the teacher but without higher order thinking or learning. This workshop will present an entire paradigm shift that includes not only the shift in philosophy from teaching to learning but also the shift in theory from a two-tiered western psychological model to a four-tiered Neuro-Semantic Language Learning model that is brain based. Recent brain research emphasizes the synergy of the brain which supports the shift from a reductionist approach to teaching to a pragmaticist or a whole is greater than the parts approach. Participants will be provided with a graphic model that shows the cultural shift along with educational implications.
Outcomes: Participants will be able to explain a paradigm shift in the dominant culture in three ways: 1) from teaching to learning; 2) from parts to whole; and 3) from skills to concepts Key Concepts: Brain-based education; neuro-education; paradigm shift from teaching to learning; Neuro-Semantic Language Learning Theory
Audience: Teachers, paraprofessionals, support specialists, administrators, and parents
