This weeks translator!
Hey guys!
I´m James and I am this week’s translator. Here you have 5 concepts I
considered important this week and how they are associated to education, to
make things more specific.
Knowledge: The definition of knowledge could be expressed
as the facts or information transmitted to someone throughout either
experiences or education. In the educational context, which is the one that
interests us, we could define it as the content
that the teacher wishes to transmit to his/her students in the classroom, like
for example ideas, dates, concepts, mathematical formulas, etc.
Connections:”
Connections” has many definitions, but
we are going to concentrate on the one that affects learning. This type of
connections could be defined as the relationship between a student, his/her
classmates, and his/her teacher. Any connection between these three elements of
the education process is important for the students’ education, as the
relationship between his/her classmates and his/her teacher makes the learning process
more comfortable and a lot easier.
Complexity:
This term refers to when many different parts that come from the same entity
interact with each other in multiple ways. In education, this definition is
relevant. Our education system is made up of many different parts, which
intertwine in various ways, making it a very complicated and intricate system.
Learning context:
We could define learning context as the background surrounding the educational
process. This background could be looked at from a social and cultural point of
view, if we want to concentrate on the way the students will develop outside
the school and how the exterior influences the learning center. It could also
be on a more interior level, regarding the learning center itself, the
teachers, tools and possibilities available for the students’ development
inside the classroom. The learning context includes all the factors that could
influence education.
Diversity: The
concept of diversity is based around tolerance and respect for other
individuals, understanding and accepting their differences, whether these are
physical, racial, or social, among others, and reacting positively and nurturing
these unique characteristics.
