DESCRIPTION:Event Type: Seminar/SymposiumSpeaker Information: Dr. James Slo
 ttaDr. Slotta's talk will present ten years' progress in developing and re
 searching the Knowledge Community and Inquiry (KCI) model at the Universit
 y of Toronto. KCI fits within a broader theoretical area of learning commu
 nities\, in which students work collectively to advance their ideas and sh
 are resources. Dr. Slotta’s work has explored the most effective designs f
 or collective inquiry\, with an emphasis on the learning sciences construc
 t of scripting and orchestration. Scripts are a form of learning design th
 at specify the various activities\, roles\, goals and materials\, as well 
 as transition logic\, learning analytics and any other elements that are e
 ssential to the specification (e.g. the role of the physical learning envi
 ronment). Orchestration is concerned with the enactment of the design\, in
  which unbound elements become fixed to local values\, and the script is b
 ought to life\, much as when a written play is actually performed. In KCI\
 , the teacher is responsible for orchestration\, but shares the load with 
 the technology environment and the physical learning space. This talk will
  review the theory\, as well a Dr. Slotta’s efforts to formally articulate
  scripts\, and scaffold the orchestration of collaborative and collective 
 inquiry activities.Cost: FreeContact: Mike Tissenbaummiketiss@illinois.edu
