1B-3 Activity 4B Minimally Invasive Education

The minimally invasion education piece advocates that children will learn once exposed to stimuli for the learning and will even assist their peers with their learning. Of significance to me is the aspect of cooperative learning where children work with their peers to accomplish tasks. In doing this type of learning, the weak students will learn from the strong ones and the strong students will be able to add to their knowledge. The collaborative environment encourages students to share the process of constructing ideas instead of working alone on tasks.

As far as ICT is concerned, students are able to learn to use the computer and internet on their own even if they are from diverse backgrounds.  The implications for classroom teachers are endless, but it can be said that once teachers carefully plan what will be done in the classroom combined with the students experiences, the students will be able to construct their own learning and will enjoy learning at the same time.
