I'm increasingly convinced that we should be moving on from acquisition metaphors of learning (storage, retrieval) and towards a perceptuo-active view. What students can perceive and how they can act with (see with, think with, write with, infer with, etc) what they know.

An explanation isn't given and then checked.
Points 1 & 2 are smaller arcs of the same circle; an explanation is brought forth via conversation. #EnactiveCogSci
Check out my book to see how to do it via detailed examples of the diagrams I drew & the questions I asked.

What's more important to get right:
🔵 The explanation of a new concept
🔵 The checking for understanding that happens afterwards
Give a reason with your answer please.

Still one of the best models I've ever designed. So much in there to explore but so elegant.

In Difference Maker I explore a different paradigm, based on enactive cognitive science:
"The mind isn't defined by external inputs but by internal dynamics, such that external stimuli can only trigger the mind to respond in some way."

I’m noticing an interesting number of intersections between #enactivecogsci, Immordino-Yang’s recent affective neuroscience research, and sociocultural theories of literacy. Each approaching from different angles, but all focused on the importance of situating learning in meaningful contexts…

Just bought "El Sentido de lo Humano" for my first venture into Humberto Maturana's writing in Spanish.
