{"title":"Autonomy of Choice in a Global Classroom: Choose-your-own Adventure, Micro-credentials, and the Destruction of “Course in a Box”","authors":"Melissa McCartney","doi":"10.33422/3rd.ictle.2021.02.125","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33422/3rd.ictle.2021.02.125","url":null,"abstract":". Autonomy and student choice are values held by the more recent generations, and they are taking ownership of their learning in a variety of ways. It is not a surprise that students prefer different ways of learning, but students, more than ever, have greater choices in the educational marketplace for where and how they want to learn. iGen is accustomed to choosing their journey for knowledge, which is evident in the rise of the popularity of Coursera and other quick-hit education providers. If learners they choice they are presented, they can click through options until they find something they do like. This puts traditional institutions of higher education at a severe disadvantage from a customer service perspective. How then can higher educational institutions provide more choice? By building in components that students can take small portions of information have choices in how they learn, and what they learn creates student autonomy in an innovative environment where students engage in the topic. By dismantling the “course in a box,” off-the-shelf curriculum is redesigned with student-centered, student autonomy as a foundation. Micro-credentials are discussed as pathways and options for greater student autonomy.","PeriodicalId":346339,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Teaching, Learning and Education","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115909179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to major physical, social, emotional, and moral ongoing changes, adolescents’ physical appearance becomes one of the top concerns. Dissatisfaction with physical appearance among girls is often reflected in a desire to be thinner, while among boys – a desire to be taller, become more muscular and have a nice body shape. However, there is a gap in research analyzing dissatisfaction with the body parts, among adolescents. A 40-question authorial questionnaire was developed to measure satisfaction with one's body parts and validated in a representative sample. The sample consisted of 1,347 Grade 8 pupils (boys n=674, and girls n=670). As established, satisfaction with one's body parts was related to gender: the satisfaction of boys and girls with the image of their bodies differed (p=0,000). Adolescents were more unsatisfied with the parts of their body that depended on an individual's phenotype (in the lower area - with buttocks, hips, legs, thighs, and calves; in the middle area - with abdomen and waist; in the upper area - with shoulders, arms and chest), and they were more satisfied with individual morpohological characteristics of the body (facial skin, feet, cheeks, ears, hair, chin, lips, eyes, neck), depending on an individual's genotype. The boys' satisfaction with their body parts in early adolescence was higher than that of the girls.","PeriodicalId":346339,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Teaching, Learning and Education","volume":"2019 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127464164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main disadvantages that hinder creative development discovered based on a comparative analysis of geometry textbooks by Russian scientists. These disadvantages are axiomatic methods, excessive theorization, non-systematic set of tasks, complex definitions etc. The author proposes the study of planimetry using the properties of simple geometric shapes without invoking axioms. As a concrete example of that, proof of triangle equality that is based on the property of \"corresponding chords of angles\" is demonstrated. Furthermore, the equality outcome is used to study the properties and features of other figures. Formulation of parallel postulates is simplified using formulas for the areas of a rectangle and a circle, and the circumference of a circle as the starting axioms. The author suggests a three-level system of tasks for each topic. The first level is designed to test the comprehensibility of the theoretical material. The second level applies the acquired knowledge in practice. The third level of tasks is intended to develop an independent study and critical thinking skills of a student. Additionally, at the end of each chapter, a wide range of extra tasks is given. Preparation for Science Olympiads and science fairs should be systematic. We succeeded at formulating general provisions for the management of scientific projects of schoolchildren in mathematics. The article provides an example of such implementation related to learning a special property of trapezoids.","PeriodicalId":346339,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 3rd International Conference on Teaching, Learning and Education","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116433573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
