A Note...

How has 2016 been for you? We hope you’ve started your teaching and learning year with reimagination. Let’s keep filling our classroom spaces with exploration and wonder! We at FrogAsia are delighted to bring you the eleventh issue of the Lilypad as you journey further into your school year.

As we have just said hello to 2016, we throwback to Leaps of Knowledge: The Classroom Reimagined or #leaps15. Hundreds of educators with dreams of ever-inspiring classrooms and a passion for engagingtheir students came together at JW Marriott,Kuala Lumpur. Together on the 31st of October, they embarked on a journeyto rediscover teaching and learning,and formulate practical classroom approachesthat they could take back to their own school.

Educators from every state in the nationjoined in, and you can see their happy faces throughout this magazine, on an adventureto cause change in the classroom. We learned that change isn’t always about moving mountains in a day - it doesn’t have to be about doing many different things in the classroom - but about doing things differently, or reimagination.

Dear reader,

Love,

family

In our last issue of The Lilypad, we shared bite-sized takeaways from Leaps of Knowledge: The Classroom Reimagined in Bahasa Malaysia- you can check them out here. In this issue, explore key learnings in English, with extras thrown in! You’ll be able to follow a teacher’s journey throughout the conference, from the energizing and inspiring keynote with Cathy Davidson, to our practical and empowering workshop sessions, to the maze of our exhibition filled with talks and interactive activities!

This month’s SPLASH! features your story ideas, students. Yes, we heard you at the Lilypad booth at our last Leaps of Knowledge conference for students. By the way, we have an announcement for you - check out when this years’ #studentleaps is going to be at our events section, Extra ‘Cool’riculum, on page 46! In this issue, we’re so excited to look at the world through your eyes - after all we’re life-long learners, too.

Welcome to a special write up of everything youneed to know about The Classroom Reimagined.

Your journey

begins now!

>

CATHYDAVIDSON PROJECT CLASSROOM MAKEOVERThe journey through doing things differently startswith an inspiring talk from our first keynote speaker, Cathy Davidson, a renowned educationalist and recipient of the 2016 Ernest L. Boyer Award.

With Students Centered Learning being the core ofher talk, Cathy starts by asking, “What happens to students after school had stopped? What can we do to make our classrooms help prepare students for after the education is over?”

Cathy then pointed out one very crucial point; the classrooms we have today look pretty much the same as a classroom from 1993, when the Internet was invented. This certainly sums up the whole point of the conference; to rethink how we do things in schools today!

Even without technology, the ability to interact is the single most important thing in the worldwe live in now.

We all know that you learn best when you teach somebody else.4

We live in a world where information is anywhere and instant. How we filter and react to it is what counts. It’s not just about the technology but about what you do with it that counts.

5

We have to prepare our students for interaction. Frog is certainly one fantastic system which allows you to structure participation.

2

1

We have to educate our students to pass their tests because that is our job. But we also have to teach them how to be flexible, adaptive, interactive, creative, information gatherers and interpreters, so that they know how to interpret the world when there is no teacher around.

Continue reading to get a glimpse of some of the important key takeaways from her talk:

11

We must learn to read closely and critically, in order to be good citizensin a society where the facts will constantly change, where the information keeps expanding more and more rapidly. The emphasis must fall back onto what to do with those facts and on how to askthe questions that changewhich facts are important.

1

Where does creative thinking come from? In the authors I publish I find that one place creative thinking comes from is an opportunity to see from multiple perspectives. The same phenomena are seen or heard or understood differently around the world, and by different people in the same country.

3

When we measure learning by testing, we are too frequently looking for the mastery of a set of facts which will change. What we want to be doingis encouraging the thinking that moves along with the facts and is able to interpret new circumstances. Because they always arrive.

5

A great work of literature or an important piece of history is not going to be replaced in the same way. But there are always new histories and new novels; one learns about new cultures or sees art one has never imagined. For each of these one needs flexible tools; the way to see and understand that is not tied to knowing one set of objects but is open to all the worlds’ futures. This can begin in our own classrooms, and it begins by thinking differently.

7

2Innovation comes from being able to imagine a solution to a problem that no one has thought about yet.

4Learning facts for a test is important for passing the test of course but only works as long as the facts hold.

6Encouraging creative thinking does not mean abandoning standards for good, smart work.

KENWISSOKER GLOBAL COMMUNICATION

If you were curious about reimagining learningfrom Cathy’s perspective, imagine being able to then jump into a bigger picture of global knowledge and how people think differently around the world!

Key Learnings

To best showcase how we might reimagine teaching and learning and learning spaces, we had a seriesof Showtimes. Each Showtime in it’s own way,was designed to help you see practical ways to elevate your classrooms into 21st-century learning.

In a Frog Classroom, it’s all about doing things differently! Teachers opened their minds to different teaching and learning methods in this section with a unique twist: here the studentswere the ones conducting the class.

Few teachers have not heard of Frog Connected Classrooms. We gathered in an exciting sessionto witness how you, in your own classroom,can connect with other schools and educators anywhere in the world!

With Lightning Talks, teachers took part in a quick and active exchange of best practices by teachers who have successfully powered their classroomswith the Frog VLE.

We searched across the country to find the educators who seek challenges and discover opportunities at every turn. From Borneo to the Peninsula, six brave teachers powered by the Frog VLE took on the challenge of quick storytellingat our Lightning Talks.

One thing was clear from the bite-sized deliveryof these best practices:

It really isn’t about the technology but whatyou do with it have makes the difference.

Your teaching and learning ideas are what makes the Frog VLE your powerful tool, inside and outside the classroom. From direct teaching, to students directing their own learning to students collaborating with cooperative learning, our Lightning Talks were full of insight and fuel to power your own reimagined classroom! Let’s explore what they talked about.

TAN LEE YIN It’s about getting them curious

What really gets students ticking? This is the curiosity that launched Ms Tan quest into storytelling with the Frog VLE. Using her Site, Ms Tan showed us how she stimulates interest with the right materials, curates information collaboratively with the class, and encourages discussion. Once there is interest, a classroom can become a hub of engagement. With collaboration, even the less vocal students get more exposure. Giving students autonomy, she believes, builds their confidence.

Your toolkit to build a 21st Century School

21st-Century Learning is a key component of the Malaysian Education Blueprint, and schools across the country are transforming themselves for the future.Mr Siga tackled the challenges of change head-on as he shared strategiesto elevate our schools.

With a clear model in mind, and a checklist as a guide, Mr Siga showed ushow he approached doing things differently. Besides the physical classroom space, Mr Siga demonstrated how with his initiative AnuraQuest, he usedthe FrogVLE to build a digital encyclopedia with user-generated content.This project promotes mastery learning, which prioritises the learning curve of the student.

Launch your students’ imaginations

Did you know that you can embed a 360 Google Street view of Angkor Wat and thousands of other places in the world? En Fadzil does, and has been using Google Street View to power curiosity of his students!

A keen promoter of Higher Order Thinking Skills (KBAT), En Fadzil focuseson why students are bored, lose focus and feel limited. With the help of the Forum Widget and a nifty embed code, En Fadzil showed us how he used the Frog VLE to launch students’ imagination and make learning truly exciting!

MOHD FADZIL

Give your stress wings and let it fly away

How do you get improved attendance and confident, independent learners? Ms Pathma and Ms Jothi showed us how a change in approach transformed their students’ lives. Their strategy: gamification. By using leaderboards, progress reports and personalised learning, students did not stop tryingin their tests, and a healthy sense of competition grew in the classroom.With the Frog VLE, students took learning outside the physical classroom,spending plenty of time practising outside school hours - and they wereexcited about it!

Participants explored a form of learning called Camouflage Learning, where students learn by doing activities inwhich they feel like they are ‘playing’.

They were introduced to gamification elements such as a leaderboard, status bar and avatars - all of which work together to show the students how far they need to go to win! We also explored how to get students to earn points through classroom criteria like attitude, academic performance and submissionof homework!

It is important to update the students on their progress often, and you can work with other teachers to implement leaderboards in their classes, making the challenge even more fun!

In the gamification session...

Participants explored Discovery Learning when the student facilitator presented on the solar system (Science, Year 4).

Discovery Learning has studentstaking an active role in learning. When learning is process-based rather than fact-based, students can jump in and understand at their own pace. When asked to present, students will rely on their communication skills and they also need to learn a new concept. To prepare for a presentation, they might explore the processes behind the topic by discussing and problem-solving.

In the discovery session... In the station rotation session...

Participants explored Blended Learning, which has students of different levels of understanding spending more individual time with their teacher in a classroom setting.

Students were divided into two groups and placed at two stations,a reading stations and a writing station.In this session, students focused on storytelling content (English, Year 4).

When groups are smaller and have time with and without the teacher, students have more control over their learning pace. With the more controlled pace, teachers can both encourage students to be more engaged and provide individual attention to students with challenges.

Three lessons were conducted by students with teachers forming the classroom!These sessions were designed specifically to flip our thainking surrounding teaching and learning. According to Jerome Bruner,a world-renowned psychologist who has made significant contributions to educational psychology, 21st century-learners are powered by collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity. Is it possible for students to take charge and power their own learning? We think so!

We also explored how to get students to earn points through classroom criteria like attitude, academic performance and submissionof homework!

It is important to update the students on their progress often, and you can work with other teachers to implement leaderboards in their classes, making the challenge even more fun!

In the gamification session...

Participants explored Discovery Learning when the student facilitator presented on the solar system (Science, Year 4).

Discovery Learning has studentstaking an active role in learning. When learning is process-based rather than fact-based, students can jump in and understand at their own pace. When asked to present, students will rely on their communication skills and they also need to learn a new concept. To prepare for a presentation, they might explore the processes behind the topic by discussing and problem-solving.

In the discovery session... In the station rotation session...

Participants explored Blended Learning, which has students of different levels of understanding spending more individual time with their teacher in a classroom setting.

Students were divided into two groups and placed at two stations,a reading stations and a writing station.In this session, students focused on storytelling content (English, Year 4).

When groups are smaller and have time with and without the teacher, students have more control over their learning pace. With the more controlled pace, teachers can both encourage students to be more engaged and provide individual attention to students with challenges.

Three lessons were conducted by students with teachers forming the classroom!These sessions were designed specifically to flip our thainking surrounding teaching and learning. According to Jerome Bruner,a world-renowned psychologist who has made significant contributions to educational psychology, 21st century-learners are powered by collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity. Is it possible for students to take charge and power their own learning? We think so!

PANELIn a panel discussion moderated by Datin Kathleen Chew Wai Lin of the YTL Foundation, our keynote speaker was joined by three distinguished panel speakers to discuss issues and inspiration surrounding the evolution of learning space and approaches.

I believe that a reimagined classroom is one which is fluid. Fluid in the sense that the teacher and student’s roles can move. A teacher doesn’t necessarily have to be the fountainof knowledge and wisdom. Today, we recognize that our students come to us with knowledge. They come with this “little backpack” of everything they need to know, and we need to “unpack” that for them in the classroom, and not just fill in more stuff. A reimagined classroom should enable fluidity, where teachers can be students and students can be teachers.

// Prof Dr. Radha M.K NambiarSchool of Language Studies and Linguistics, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM)

I think supplementing grading with other kinds of credentialing is very useful. I always have my students come up with a list of all the things that they think they can learn in heir classroom that are not measured in grades. A quality that one of my students came up with that I never really thought about but is so important: the person who keeps up everybody’s spirit when a project is flagging. That’s an important person, and how do you reward and recognise that?

// Dr. Cathy DavidsonRenowned educationalist & Ernest L. Boyer Award winner

As a teacher myself, it is very important to have all the basic technological equipments to support blended learning. But if teachers are still adapting traditional way of teaching and refuse to incorporate group activities, collaboration and maximising the usage of technology, there won’t be any progress. Therefore, reimagining a classroom has to start with the teacher. Teachers have to reimagine their pedagogical methodof teaching.

//Puan Chee Poh KiemPrincipal of SMK St Mary

Imagination can only do so much; if you have limited resources in your class, you have to make do with that. But if you have the right resources, you can do a lot of wonders. If we are to reimagine a class, teachers must be ready to acquire 21st century learning activities. There is no point having all these high tech gadgets if teachers are still using the same old boring methods. That is what we should be focusing on.

WATER. Why is water worth more than anything? Clean water means health but on the other hand water can also mean death. Diseases as cholera, dysentery, typhus and others spread through unclean water. Each day 6000 people lose their lives because of the lack of clean water;4 people a minute.

What can you do about it?You might feel that your voice may not be heard in your corner - but what if you lent your voice to something bigger! With the help of many organisations around the world you can help to make this world a better place, providing clean water for the people in need in our own nation and around the world. Google ‘‘charity for water’’ and check it out!

The last years have seen many more people gaining access to clean water. Nevertheless,2.5 billion people still do not have access to clean water and sanitation. The fact is that 1.1 billion people do not even have access to a proper toilet.

In 2000, 189 leaders of countries around the world signed the “Millennium Declaration” - an initiative by the United Nations. This initiative made sure that the countries would make changes to achieve certain goals in 15 years because not everything changed in the way we imagined they would by 2015. That is one of the reasons for the new initiative by the United Nations: called Global Goals.

Water is on the list. We might ask ourselves:Is clean water important to me? What might you do to ensure that by 2030 everyone has accessto clean water and sanitation?

Today we are going to take a peekinto one of the biggest issues of these past few decades.

A balanced diet consists of fiber, fat, protein and carbohydrates, making you less likely to fall ill and miss out on classes. As a result, the amount of interruptions on schoolwork over the year and in learning will be reduced. There will also be fewer disruptions in classes since you will become more focused, creating a more pleasant learning environment for every student.

Why is proper nutrition great for students?

Can I help?Creating a supportive environment for better nutrition can be fun. Make building a healthy diet something fun and exciting. Imagine a Youtube session, a Hangout Session, a Frog VLE Site, where you can get your teachers and classmates on board.

After all, what Malaysian doesn’t love food?

How would proper nutrition affect students’ performance in the classroom?

Do you have a story suggestionfor our students’ pullout?

Have a good breakfast every morning

Research has shown that not having breakfast decreases scholastic achievements. Mayit happen that you are late for school, grab at least some juice or a piece of fruit.

Limit the amount of sugar you consume

You need sugar to providethe needed amount of calories but make sure not to take too much of it. Sweetening coffee,cereal, fruit and tea withhoney is a better option.

Healthy Eating Tips6

Choose food that are rich in calcium

Calcium needs to be built up in your body before you reach your early twenties in order to prevent osteoporosis. Low-fat yoghurt, green leafy vegetables and low-fat cheese are also full of calcium.

Drink lots of water

It is important to drink a minimum of eight classes each day, depending on how muchyou exercise. Bring water bottles to class to stay hydrated and concentrated.

Trade unhealthy snacks for healthy ones

Apart from eating vegetables, eat dried or fresh fruit, rice cakes, whole wheat crackers, low-fat yoghurt, or unbuttered popcorn instead of snacks with a high level of fat such as fried food.

REIMAGINING ROBOTS:Young and bright Malaysians take on robotics

For the fifth time in seven years, Malaysian high school students have beaten 43 other countries at the 12th World Robot Olympiad in Qatar with robots they designed and programmed, made primarily out of plastic LEGO blocks. Although they were submitted for the competition, these robots were built from scratch to save lives!

3,000 young robot enthusiasts attended this competition one month ago, 57 of them being Malaysian high school students. The hard working Gold Medal winners were YC Adventure Kidz from SJK(C) Yuk Chai in the Open Primary School category, and the Robotist team from SMK USJ 4 in the Open Lower Secondary Category. The third gold medal was won by the Kota Kinabalu Mara Junior Science College in the robotic football match. Most impressively, 3 students from

EDUCATION MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND:

A global movement of more than 7 million people worldwide, Amnesty Internationalis campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all. Amnesty International has student organisations across the globe - and one of them is “Amnesty Student GroupNijmegen” (AISN).

Almost 70 students come together to strive for a better world with opportunities for everyone. Through lectures, workshops debates and more they try to create awareness surrounding human rights and other global issues. The student group is lead by a board of directors and 7 commissions. One of these is the Right2Education commision.

Every year for 1 week, awareness around education is created by these students. Recently, one of their campaigns was focused on Palestine, where not every childis able to go to school due to instability inthe region.

Any student can join the AISN. Not only are they a student group creating awareness on all kind of global issues, they also host social events.

When we do meaningful work,it is wonderful to be able to relax together, too.
