The Head Won’t Go Where the Heart Hasn’t Been

Benjamin Bloom argued that we need to address all the domains and find a balance. We often over emphasize the cognitive domain, relegate the psychomotor to the trades or other overtly physical disciplines and limit the affective domain to ethical or values issues. This limitation will severely limit the change that is necessary for learning. The blog post The Head Won’t Go Where the Heart Hasn’t Been post includes a more detailed explanation of the importance of the affective domain and has links to the Behavioral Science (BS) Guys video How to Change People Who Don’t Want to Change and also a related TED Talk Why TED Talks don’t change people’s behaviors.

I always look forward to an opportunity to explore what we can do as educators to enhance the learning environment. The following are a list of videos, links to blogs/articles and related resources that were used in a workshop for the Emergency Nursing instructors are BCIT.

Disposition – Foster the idea that learning can be an adventure.

How to Change People Who Don’t Want to Change | The Behavioral Science Guys

The BS Guys recommend that:

When you are trying to influence people who need motivation don’t give them more information….Use questions to help them explore motivations they may already have.

The Head Won’t Go Where the Heart Hasn’t Been

If you really want to bring about change in people then you need to appeal their hearts and not to their heads. The sharing of more information or engaging in more rational discourse on its own doesn’t appear to help people to make significant change but an appeal to values, attitudes, and feelings first can motivate people toward making changes.

Changing the world, one learner at a time

Dwayne Harapnuik — February 23, 2015 — Leave a comment

This past week in a curriculum development course I was facilitating I was reminded of a huge responsibility I have as a professor; and that we all have as members of humanity.

As is normally the case when I show my class a Youtube video on Carol Dwecks Mindset the ensuing discussion was lively, passionate and sobering. In Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, Dweck makes the well researched argument that intelligence and talent are not fixed a birth and that by adopting a growth mindset, learners become more willing to take on challenges, try harder, embrace setbacks, learn from feedback/criticism, find inspiration in other’s success and ultimately reach higher levels of achievement. These are all the characteristics that we want in all learners especially as we move into the digital information age.

Unfortunately this too often is not the mindset that we see in most of our learners. One seasoned and insightful instructor taking my course pointed out that too many of his learners believe they are entitled to an “A”, believe that challenges are only for those who lack ability, are not willing to learn from feedback and are threatened by the success of others. He rightfully pointed that many of these types of learners would be quite upset with having to deal with this idea of the growth mindset because they been feed a consistent diet of fixed mindset thinking. This type of thinking could shake their world.

He was right…this type of thinking has the potential to change the learner. Change often puts people on the defensive or even makes them angry. Even if we just reach one learner at a time in our classrooms, the ripple effect from this change will eventually change that learner’s world. It is possible to change the world one learner at a time.

So is this yet another responsibility placed upon college and university professors, teachers and instructors? When you consider that anywhere from 70 – 90% of learning is informal and happens outside of the classroom (see Jay Cross post Where did the the 80% come from) the responsibility to impact the learners around us is societal. We are all learners. Whether they are our children, family, friends, co-workers our staff or colleagues we all have learners in our sphere of influence.

Are you changing the world one learner at a time?

Passive Voice
What’s Passive Voice? Consider this extreme example of passive voice:
It has been observed in a frequency all too significant that students upon submission of their written assignments have been inclined to have chosen a manner of composition that is too often far from one that is direct enough to be understood as conveying meaning in a fashion that is most expedient.

Same idea in Active voice:
Students too often submit assignments where they don’t directly write what they mean.
OR
Students too often turn in work where they don’t directly say what they mean to say.

Organizational Change
Change can also be difficult because sometimes people like things the way that they are. The post People how like this stuff…like this stuff explores the 4 steps that you need to follow to be successful with organizational change. These 4 steps have become part of the Masters Course EDLD 5304: Leading Organizational Change.

Change in Focus

If you really want to improve your practices and pedagogies, then you need to get clear on your primary focus because your focus will determine where you will go. The use of authentic learning opportunities can help you and your organization stay focused on helping your learners to realize their full potential and grow into future leaders who will help improve our world.

Because the century-old challenge of content delivery has been solved by mobile technology we can move forward to use authentic learning opportunities that provide the context for learning.
