Empowering the student to take the wheel of their education: A student-owned learning experience portfolio leveraging authentic feedback and supported by scaffolding.
OWNERSHIP THROUGH SCAFFOLDING
Students need to be prepared for a rapidly changing future in which lifelong learning is an integral part. In order to become successful, being and remaining responsible for one’s own learning is an important condition.
We believe that the best way to learn responsibility is by giving students as much ownership as possible over their own learning process: learning to take control themselves in order to learn from it optimally. Being able to take ownership is a learning process in which scaffolding on the route is crucial for a good success. On this route to ownership, the teacher can always offer the right guidance and reduce it appropriately, so that the student learns in his own zone of proximal development. The teacher determines the scaffolding, the student makes use of the freedoms obtained.
