Take Quest To Learn: Developing The School For Digital Kids Illustrated By Katie Salen File Pamphlet

to Learn, an innovative school for gradestoin New York City, grew out of the idea that gaming and game design offer a promising new paradigm for curriculum and learning.
The designers of Quest to Learn developed an approach to learning that draws from what games do best: drop kids into inquirybased, complex problem spaces that are built to help players understand how they are doing, what they need to work on, and where to go next.
Content is not treated as dry information but as a living resource students are encouraged to interact with the larger world in ways that feel relevant, exciting, and empowering.
Quest to Learn opened in the fall ofwithsixth graders, In their first semester, these students learned among other things to convert fractions into decimals in order to break a piece of code found in a library book to use atlases and read maps to create a location guide for a reality television series and to create video tutorials for a hapless group of

fictional inventors.
This research and development document outlines the learning framework for the school, making the original design available to others in the field.
Elements in development include a detailed curriculum map, a budget, and samples of student and teacher handbooks.
This book does an amazing job of laying out the theories and processes behind QuestLearn, Uma excelente proposta de planejamento de experiências de aprendizagem, A proposta é tão completa em sua descrição e intenção, tão cheia de planejamento e perspectivas, tão atenciosa à necessidade e respeito individual que chego a duvidar da sua replicabilidade conceitual no desenvolvimento educacional/cultural de nossa sociedade.
Não tenho dúvidas que tratase de um dos melhores "modelos" expostos de abordagem educacional, Os conceitos de letramento tecnológico/digital, formação sistêmica e princípios de games são a base desta proposta.
A leitura é fundamental para quem pensa em inovar na prática pedagógica e de planejamento, Katie Salen is a game designer, interactive designer, animator, and design educator, She has taught at universities including MIT, the University of Texas at Austin, Parsons School of Design, New York University, Rhode Island School of Design, and School of Visual Arts.
