Learning Manifesto

Learning occurs when a new experience makes connections to existing knowledge.Learning cannot be delivered to the learner.The best way to ensure understanding inside your head is through active construction of sharable things outside your head.

“The role of the teacher is to create the conditions for invention rather than provide ready-made knowledge.”

Seymour Papert

Sylvia Martinez

“It is impossible to teach 21st century learners if you have not learned in this century”
