The theory behind generative AI as a transformational tool for learning.
This episode, the last in the current season, was recorded at the Online Educa conference in Berlin and focuses on Generative AI. Since the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, the learning world has been mesmerized by the potential benefits and dangers of this new form of AI. Unlike other forms, it can be accessed by non-technical people, in natural language conversations. Donald and John explore its roots in neuro-biological research, as well as the learning theory underpinning Donald's belief that it is potentially the most powerful technology invented so far for learning.

We don't need no education?
This episode explores the transformative ideas of three influential late 20th-century educational theorists. Each began with a flourishing career in teaching but ultimately left the classroom behind, driven by a growing disenchantment with the educational system. Their collective experiences culminated in an incisive critique of conventional schooling, sparking calls in some quarters for comprehensive educational reform. But compelling as their arguments were, did they achieve any enduring impact on the landscape of education?

The pioneers of alternative education systems.
This episode covers a group of 20th Century thinkers and educationalists in both Northern and Southern hemispheres who developed a variety of alternative visions for schools. Inspired by enlightenment figures like Rousseau, and the German Idealists who came after them, they nevertheless reacted against the strict and regimented so-called ‘Prussian’ system of education that had become the mainstream. They incorporated ideas from the burgeoning field of psychology, and also, in the case of Rudolph Steiner, a strong element of mysticism.

Marxism and education.
This episode examines the impact on learning of a thinker, Karl Marx, who had a revolutionary effect on the world in general. In the name of Marx and his collaborator Engels, politicians of the 20th Century created regimes that were utopian in some cases, highly repressive and even murderous in others. Meanwhile, the heirs to Marx’s intellectual tradition fleshed out Marxism as a rich and powerful explanatory system. And though controversial to this day, Marxist thought has had an enduring effect on learning and education.

How German philosophy created the modern education system. Why is education the way it is? Why does the bell ring to signal the end of a lesson? Who invented teacher training? Why do universities combine teaching with research? It might surprise you to learn that the answers to these questions can be found in the writings of early 19th Century German philosophers. This episode looks at the German Idealists, a group including Kant and Hegel, inspired by the Enlightenment and the spirit of Romanticism following the French Revolution, who set the mould for the education systems of today. 00:00 - Intro 00:58 - Introducing the German Idealists 05:59 - Immanuel Kant (1724 – 1804) 18:45 - Johann Friedrich Herbart (1776 - 1841) 26:29 - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770 – 1831) 45:20 - Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1825) 57:34 - Summing up

In this episode, the first of a new season, we look at a group of thinkers who have focused on how we should evaluate the impact of the learning. Beginning with Donald L Kirkpatrick in the 1950s, they have given us models of how to measure and evaluate it. However, for all the work that has gone into this area, the general perception has long been that organisations simply do not evaluate anything like enough. There are indications, however, that this picture is changing, and interest in evaluation is on the up. With the advent of powerful new AI tools, could we be on the brink of a breakthrough? 00:00:00 - Intro 00:00:55 - Introducing Evaluation 00:13:52 - Donald L.

During the Covid lockdowns of recent years, online technology became practically the only way of delivering learning. But a long road has brought us to such a place. This episode covers the theorists, inventors and entrepreneurs who pioneered technology delivery of learning, beginning in the early years of the 20th century with the mechanical teaching devices of Sidney Pressey and B. F. Skinner. Introducing Technology Delivery – 1:20 Sidney L. Pressey (1888-1979) & B.F.

Social constructivism had its origins in the thought of Karl Marx. However, it became a strong influence on educationalists in the capitalist West during the latter half of the 20th Century, and thinkers such as Piaget and Vygotsky are popular on teacher training courses to this day. But does its central tenet, that learning is socially constructed rather than individually discovered, hold up under scrutiny? Introducing Social Constructivism – 1:24 Jean Piaget (1896-1980) – 6:44 Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934) – 19:22 Jerome Bruner (1915-2016) – 33:12 Margaret Donaldson (1926-2020) – 41:56 Merlin Wittrock (1931 - 2007) – 52:22 Summing Up – 1:04:57 The Blog that started it all: https://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/2021/09/these-were-written-as-quick-readable.html Piaget bit.ly/2vRLT9J Vygotsky bit.ly/2SlHymF Bruner bit.ly/2OB4r4o Donaldson bit.ly/39eMvo1 Wittrock bit.ly/3EQW2Sp

This episode covers a sizeable sweep of history, from the perhaps misnamed Dark Ages and the Islamic Golden Age, on through the Renaissance, Reformation and Enlightenment. As the Christian and Islamic faiths spread, learning became a powerful tool of religion – and Religious Educators, in their turn, changed the shape of learning.

Once the stuff of science fiction, Artificial Intelligence is now a part of everyday life. But the story of how it came into being is not often told. This episode reveals its roots in neuropsychology and observations of the physical processes in the brain that lead to learning. The theorists who Donald and John discuss began their work at a time when behaviorism, which by and large disouraged attempts to look within the mind, dominated academic psychology. But despite a few 'winters', AI has developed to the point where it is now all-pervasive, and a driving force of change in learning. 1:20 Introducing AI Learning 8:06 Eric Kandel (1929 - ) 13:29 Donald Olding Hebb (1904 – 1985) 23:29 Warren Sturgis McCulloch (1898 – 1969) & Walter Pitts (1923 – 1969) 37:37 Frank Rosenblatt (1928 – 1971) 44:16 David Everett Rumelhart (1942-2011) & Geoffrey Everest Hinton (1947–) 57:06 Demis Hassabis (1976–) 1:07:23 Summing Up Read Donald's book, Artificial Intelligence for Learning: https://www.koganpage.com/product/artificial-intelligence-for-learning-9781789660814 Kandel bit.ly/3oiiYDo Hebb bit.ly/3kq3z2A McCulloch & Pitts bit.ly/3kn6Fo8 Rosenblatt bit.ly/31PZmih Rumelhart & Hinton bit.ly/3bXU3zd Hassabis bit.ly/3qrYgmT

All humans play games of one type and another. Philosophers and psychologists have seen play as an integral to our nature as human animals. Harnessing the power of this instinctual drive for the purposes of learning has been a perennial theme over the last three decades, givven greater impetus by the dramatic rise of computer games as a new and dynamic form of media. But can game-based experiences, and gamified interfaces, risk destroying learning as much as they support it? This episode looks at the work of theorists who have tangled with this question, illuminating the complex interaction of play, motivation and learning, and the future possibilities opened up by the metaverse. 0:00 - Intro 1:20 - Introducing Gamification 9:36 - Johan Huizinga (1872 – 1945) 17:45 - James Paul Gee (1948 –) 25:46 - Marc Prensky (1946 – ) 34:05 - Richard M.

GMoL is on a mid-season break, but in this bonus episode without Donald Clark, John discusses the series so far with Carl Chrisostomo. Under his social media alias of Carllearns, Carl has been 'learning out loud' on his journey of discovery in learning science. He reflects on the part GMoL has played as guide and wayfinder in that journey. In a sense, it's a learner takeover: both Carl and John talk about how the series has changed their understanding of learning: two minds perhaps less touched by greatness, but both animated by a deepening and widening appreciation of the ways in which we learn, and the rich literature that engages and rewards curiosity about this fascinating subject. 00:00 Intro 00:15 Carl's learning journey 08:18 Carl's first GMoL episode 13:48 Which episodes resonated with Carl? 18:42 How GMOL has changed Carl's view on learning 21:04 What should GMoL cover in the future? 23:17 Where to follow Carl The Blog that started it all: https://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/2021/09/these-were-written-as-quick-readable.html Follow Carl Twitter: @carlcrisostomo LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carlcrisostomo Website: http://www.carllearns.com/ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/carlcrisostomo
