From Pedagogy………. ………..to ‘Cosmogogy’? …….the study of learning while connected to the world using digital technologies whereby the context of learning is ‘with’ rather than ‘about’. ……not location based and considers whom you learn with and what you construct together most important. (Julie Lindsay)
- 49. “Cosmogogy” • From the word ‘cosmo’ which means ‘of or relating to the universe’ • Based on constructivist learning theory and connectivism as a learning approach • Uses online technologies as an essential scaffold for learning objectives

Notes de l'éditeur

- has an understanding of ‘connectivisim’ and networked learning

- has empathy learning with other cultures and by doing so: - is comfortable learning with and from others in other parts of the world, and aims to get to know learning partners virtually - is confident working with other cultures - is someone who understands varied perspectives, and empathizes with others in an effort to resolve global issues - is adept at encouraging empathy that leads to positive action through global connections - adopts and encourages multiple perspectives knows about global current events and is knowledgeable about current events to stimulate authentic communication, shared understanding and appreciation of different perspectives
- fosters global competency through global context
- collaborates with anyone, anywhere, anytime, in any way possible understands the degrees of global collaboration as distinct from cooperation for deep learning is adept at teacher-sourcing builds online global communities to: - create an interconnectedness of communities - address values of equity, social justice and sustainability - foster relationships for learning knows how to learn synchronously and asynchronously

- An example of global sharing to enrich understanding

- Way before the Internet was available in schools, Hanvey (1982) writes about the ‘attainable global perspective’ and came up with five dimensions of a global perspective. These are: Perspective consciousness: awareness on the part of the individual that their view of the world is not universally shared and others views may be profoundly different ‘State of the planet’ awareness: an awareness of prevailing world conditions and development, including emergent conditions and trends Cross-cultural awareness: awareness of the diversity of ideas and practices to be found in human societies from around the world and how one’s own society may be viewed from other vantage points Knowledge of global dynamics: comprehension of key trails and mechanisms of the world system that may increase intelligent consciousness of global change Awareness of human choices: awareness of the problem of choice confronting individuals, nations and the human species as consciousness and knowledge of the global system expands
- It is one thing to connect with the world and appreciate the ‘them’ and ‘us’ learning opportunities, however it is a whole other challenge to be able to collaborate globally with different learning partners. The latter is what all educators and learners should be aspiring to. True global collaboration in the classroom needs a shift in teaching that allows teachers and students to 'flatten' the learning experience to bring the outside world in and put themselves out there - to build bridges for global empathy and intercultural competency to create workable structures where all participants can learn with and not just from each other. But what does this all mean?
- Collaboration is the action of working with someone to produce or create something. Two or more people attempt to learn something together. Distinct from cooperation where tasks are distributed amongst learners. Collaborative learning: where students team together to explore a significant question or create a meaningful project.
- What happens when we add ‘global’ to online collaboration? Same digital tools? Yes Same online collaborative practices? Maybe What is different? New understandings time zones, cultural differences, new languages New pedagogies that support collaborative learning while not face to face collaboration leads to co-creation at a distance

- Community building as a prerequisite to learning Collaboration that leads to co-creation with other learners who are not in the same time and space, Pedagogical independence and leadership for change within a school/institution
- A cosmogogical approach to teaching and learning applies to having a global or a world approach. It applies to being comfortable and familiar learning with others in different places through the use of online technologies. It puts the learner at the centre of the ‘universe’, a node on the network, with the capability of reaching out and connecting to anything and anyone in order to find information, in order to collaborate and to co-create with anyone, anywhere, anytime. It also means learners approach problems and solutions from a more openly networked and in fact global perspective to the point that ‘unflat’ learning feels strange and closed in. Cosmogogical leadership pertains to understanding how to foster and support approaches to learning while connected to others in any part of the world. It is about how to support individualised and personalized learning that is less teacher and school directed, more self-determined as with heutagogy; aligned with developing a culture of collaboration as with peeragogy; with a focus on student/learner autonomy.
