Making Democracy an Ethic and a Pedagogy Year of publication: 2017 Author: Christophe Point Corporate author: Éthique en éducation et en formation This article presents the argument that an ethics of democracy in the school requires an appropriate pedagogy. This pedagogy cannot be limited to theoretical content or to an assortment of civic actions because democracy is not composed either of a particular set of facts, concepts or dates, or of an undetermined social behaviour. According to the approach of John Dewey, who places inquiry at the center of his definition of democracy, we wish to demonstrate a double benefit from pragmatist thinking. For ethics, in defining democracy as a habit of collective thinking, we wish to construct values that can be shared by all participants in the school environment. For pedagogy, this habit of inquiry can lend itself to all subjects taught at school without limiting itself to a particular discipline. Finally, we will propose a modeling of this democratic education for a step-by-step didactic progression. Faire de la démocratie une éthique et une pédagogie Year of publication: 2017 Author: Christophe Point Corporate author: Éthique en éducation et en formation Cet article présente l’argument suivant : une éthique de la démocratie à l’école nécessite une pédagogie appropriée. Cette dernière ne peut se limiter à un contenu théorique ou à un éventail de gestes civiques, car la démocratie ne se réduit ni à un ensemble de faits, concepts ou dates particulières, ni à un comportement social vague. Suivant la démarche de John Dewey qui place l’enquête au centre de sa définition de la démocratie, nous souhaitons montrer un double bénéfice de la pensée pragmatiste. Pour l’éthique, en définissant la démocratie par une habitude de pensée collective, nous voulons construire des valeurs pouvant être partagées par l’ensemble des acteurs du milieu scolaire. Pour la pédagogie, cette habitude de l’enquête peut alors se prêter à toutes les disciplines enseignées à l’école sans se limiter à un domaine particulier. Enfin, nous proposons une modélisation de cet enseignement démocratique pour une progression didactique par étapes. Mobile Learning as a Catalyst to Global Citizenship Education in China: Case Study by the UNESCO-Fazheng Project on Best Practices in Mobile Learning Year of publication: 2019 Author: Yao Yu | Shutong Wang | Lucy Emerson Haagen Corporate author: UNESCO The Beijing Royal School was one of the pioneer schools in China in incorporating mobile learning into pedagogical transformation. Its mobile learning programme started in 2010. Stemming from the school’s orientation towards global citizenship education, the Beijing Royal School recognizes mobile learning as both driver and enabler for supporting the development of students’ cognitive, socio-emotionaland behavioural dimensions, organized around knowledge acquisition, understanding and respect for difference and diversity, and responsible engagement with global issues. It takes advantage of a variety of mobile apps to support students’ multilingual education, and uses open educational resources (OER) to support multicultural education, taking advantage of the up-to-date worldwide data and information available on the web. It also engages with students from other countries in projects and courses that help the students to widen their understanding of diverse cultures and social contexts. Overall, this case study illustrates how to use mobile technologies to support the implementation of a well-defined and clearly structured educational vision by embedding the use of mobile technologies in students’ daily learning lives. Anytime, Anywhere Learning for Improved Education Results in Russia: Case Study by the UNESCO-Fazheng Project on Best Practices in Mobile Learning Year of publication: 2019 Author: Alexander Uvarov | Julia Varlamova Corporate author: UNESCO The Harmony School in Izhevsk is a regular municipal school located in one of the city districts of the capital city of the Udmurt Republic in Russia. Students come to Harmony school from different cultural and social environments, with various physical and mental abilities, and the school is eager to create the best conditions for learning and developing for each of them. In 2012, Harmony School took a part in the School of Digital Age project supported by the federal Skolkovo project and the Russian branch of Microsoft. The mobile technologies in the school are implemented as a tool for anytime and anywhere learning to differentiate and individualize learning to improve education results.According to the school vision, mobile learning technologies should provide all students and teachers anytime and anywhere access to a variety of teaching and learning materials and digital instruments and students who are unable to attend classes should be able to continue their systematic studies. The mobile learning model should enable every student to experience independent learning activities in the digital educational environment and improve their educational results with new methods and organizational forms of teaching and learning. To implement this vision, the new school-wide teaching and learning practices including online/blended learning, mobile learning in the classroom and outside-classroom learning have been developed and used actively. The new in-school teachers’ professional development model has become a crucially important element for the project’s success.
