About Future Learning

Spring Blog Festival: Future Learning | Mini Documentary:

Students are the future, but what's the future for students? To arm them with the relevant, timeless skills for our rapidly changing w...

What is the future of education? Maybe this time we can consider how tech enhances - not replaces - traditional learning.

How can education prepare students for living in the 21st century?
How can schooling change to meet meet the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century?
How can we prepare students to address "future-focused" issues such as sustainability, globalisation, citizenship, and enterprise?

Literature suggests we need to be future-oriented and adaptable, adopting a more complex view of knowledge, that incorporates knowing, doing, and being. Alongside this we need to rethink our ideas about how our learning systems are organised, resourced, and supported.

Education Online The Latest State of Research

There are both pros and cons of online education.

Online learning should be seen as a complement and extension of classical forms of learning. Not even the best online course can fully replace the personal contact with a teacher, or the human relationships that develop in a group.

All in all, traditional classes should not be replaced with online learning.

How to Learn Foreign Language?

How to Learn Foreign Language?
I am confidently sure that learning a language includes commitment, tough work and patience. I would like to talk about some guidelines which are important in improving the language.
First, we should associate our passion or skills with language.
If we like singing, we can join the Karaoke classes and online groups.
Second, we may use the right of entry on internet.
YouTube is an excellent source of perfect materials. By watching thoughtfully teachers and native speakers using the language, we are able to learn faster and effortlessly.
There are very many outstanding language teachers and we can subscribe to their videos.
Third, learning language with some joy and fun should be our way.
It doesn’t mean that we shouldn't take learning seriously. I strongly believe in the funny side and benefits with our more effective results. Another advice would be watching movies with subtitles, next without them.
Taking part in free study lessons and online Speaking Groups, will help
a lot.

I have been fascinated by WizIQ since I found the Platform.
In my view, Virtual Classes are tremendously exciting and challenging; they make attendees feel like having a real meetings and discussion. Visual quality and non-verbal communication tools, which can be shared with attendees are particularly significant.
Moreover, an opportunity to communicate online with people from around the world is an overwhelming experience - as well as –an opportunity to socialize for teaching and learning. Possibility to meet people from the entire Globe is one of the reasons I appreciate online communication, very much.
In my view, sharing is carrying.
Let us connect and exchange our ideas and thoughts.
Looking forward to talking to you,
