Welcome to #NHed! Tonight we explore curiousity. Is it a killer or a captivator?

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:01 PM EST

I think curiousity has gotten a bad rap. Perhaps the cat was just unlucky. Let's see what you think, tonight on #NHed.

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:06 PM EST

I'm very curious about using more platforms for Ss voice and choice! 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣#NHed

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:08 PM EST

Sorry my conn is so slow tonight! Really lagging!😩 #NHed

#NHed Q1: In your mind, is curiousity good, bad or something else?

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:10 PM EST

No worries, mine has been having problems of late also! #NHed

#NHed Q2: Nature or nurture - Can curiousity be taught or is it something we are born with? Explain your position.

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:22 PM EST

A2: I think children are nat curious. Can b dangerous hence adult supervision. However I thnk it can b taught thru exp and modeling! #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:25 PM EST

#NHed A2: I wonder if there are levels of inherent curiousity. I wonder at what point in a child's development it is repressed.

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:26 PM EST

We can encourage curiosity thru play and genius hours etc. #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:28 PM EST

#NHed @valerietilton Q4 will dive into that more!

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:28 PM EST

I find as we get older our time limitations may impede. #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:30 PM EST

#NHed Q3: When can curiousity become a danger or liability?

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:34 PM EST

A3: When bodily harm/emotional distress may b involved. I.E.: substance use, risky behavior, untrained/uneducated use of tools etc. #NHed

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:35 PM EST

A3: Our lack of know. before diving into a situation! #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:35 PM EST

Follow-up question,: how do we encourage the positive & explain the dangers in such a way that we don't scare them off? #NHed

By becoming educated and knowledgeable about the curiosity! Encourage Ss when you feel in comfort zone. We r there to guide. 😀

#NHed Q4: How can we harness curiousity to further learning?

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:43 PM EST

A4: Take opps to expand on curiosity. Slow down to listen to Ss. Hard to do when standards have to b covered. Q/A discussions. 😀 #NHed

Modeling - the more frequently we discuss choices and approaches, the better Ss are able to decide for themselves. #NHed

In reply to @valerietilton

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:45 PM EST

Encourage Ss to research through use of tech or interviews. Guest speakers are great to enc finding answers! #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:47 PM EST

I'm a big proponent of experiential ed. More experiences=better answers down the road. #NHed

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:48 PM EST

I see curiosity abound in math, science and robotics classes. How do we expand to ELA and others? #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:50 PM EST

#NHed Q5: So you’re curious… Now what? What are your next steps to go from curious to explorer?

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:50 PM EST

What about offering a class on innovative thinking?👏🏻 #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:52 PM EST

Great question! I can see creative writing playing a part here. #NHed

In reply to @valerietilton

valerietilton Jan 29 @ 7:53 PM EST

A5: Begin by asking Q's, researching subj, trial/error. If fail start over. Need to feel safe to make mistakes and continue! #NHed

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:53 PM EST

That's a class I'd like to take! #NHed

In reply to @valerietilton

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:54 PM EST

I agree. It really is about building and owning a process around the pursuit of learning! #NHed

In reply to @valerietilton

edventures - Moderator Jan 29 @ 7:58 PM EST

The old argument of "covering" curriculum v. diving deep. Superficial exposure v. intimate understanding. #NHed
