By reading the materials from these two weeks, the three most important concepts I think are individuals have different preferences of learning, the purpose of education is to support learners to reaching their potentials and the importance of access certain learning resources
People have their own preferences. Some people like to use a computer to work with a cup of coffee while sitting in a sunny place during the day, while some people like to study by reading the textbook and other materials while listening to music at night. Some people take notes with a computer or tablet in class, while others rely on pens and notebooks. Therefore, flexibility of learning forms can meet the needs of learners to the greatest extent.
The purpose of education is to support learners to reaching their potentials, instead of sitting in the classroom, receiving the knowledge passed by the teacher, trying hard to get an A. The most fundamental purpose of education is to allow children to find the areas where they are most interested, so that they can have a future life which is rich of fun and meaningful.
Some tutors have made learning materials very difficult to find. For example, a professor of mine asked us to read a book that is not provided on the market, and even e-books were not found, but he made us write an essay after reading. This not only fails to make students understand the knowledge, but also discourages students from learning.
What makes me most incomprehensible is the advice apply whether you can create curriculum resources for preschoolers, graduate curriculum or lifelong learning resources. I do not accept. Differences in age and identity lead to differences in understanding of materials. Children can learn from educational cartoons, but students like graduate students still have to learn through more authoritative materials.
Universal design is a good world trend, and more and more resources are beginning to take this form, allowing more people to participate, but lack of interaction between these participants In addition to translating resources into different languages to serve learners in different countries, maybe we can establish a channel so that learners in different countries can connect with each other and share their understanding and learning results with each other.
