  3. Views on Redesign How would a school look likeif it was invented now? • Fundamental and out of the box: • Use all knowledge about learning, teaching and business organization • Forget traditions • Ignore all regulations • but stay within • the limits of the school budget • the terms of the examinations

  4. The reason why • ICT makes it possible to change processes inside and outside the school • The theory of Social Constructivism shows us that ‘learning’ needs very different processes compared to ‘teaching’. • Recent brain-research shows us that the knowledge people use (informal) is very different from the knowledge that is defined in books, curricula or the knowledge a teacher thinks that is important (formal)……..

  5. The nature of learning • Learning starts at the edge of the knowing and of the not-knowing......So: • We don’t know the moment that an individual reaches the edge • We dont know his/her gap between knowing and not-knowing.... So: • Schools with time tables and pre-described subject matter are not about learning

  6. What is a traditional school about?.. • The knowledge that is communicated in books • That can be divided in small parts and among different teachers • That makes that a student now knows what he will learn at April 4th at 3h. p.m. • The industrial approach of knowledge and learning
