1. Positivism and Post-positivism
•“Chalk and Talk” •Instructor-led curriculum •Installation versus evocation
12 Herie (2005) in McFadden, Moore, Herie & Schoech http://tinyurl.com/cxdx5lc
2. Critical Pedagogy
• Oppressive power structures in society are replicated in educational institutions/classrooms
• Interrogation of power dynamics in classrooms
• Alternative epistemologies/ways of knowing
13 Herie (2005) in McFadden, Moore, Herie & Schoech http://tinyurl.com/cxdx5lc
3. Constructivist Paradigm
• Learning is socially constructed versus acquired
• Scaffolded learning through discovery and application
• Focus on authenticity /relevance/ collaboration
14 Herie (2005) in McFadden, Moore, Herie & Schoech http://tinyurl.com/cxdx5lc
4. Andragogy/Adult Learning
• Shift from looking at teaching to looking at the whole nature of learning
• Learners are inherently self-directed • Instructor and learners collaborate in constructing curricula

Heutagogy
18 http://www.irrodl.org/index.php/irrodl/article/view/1076
Heutagogy (based on the Greek for “self”)
• Defined by Hase and Kenyon (2000) as the study of self-determined learning
• Competencies + capabilities • Double-loop learning

Heutagogy: Self-directed, self-determined, process vs content

Paragogy (“para-” alongside, “-gogy” leading)

Paragogy: The critical study and practice of peer learning
Just as more and more employees are expected to have basic multi-media skills – the ability to blog, for example, or to shoot images or videos on their smartphones – so will they be expected to have the basic ability to share knowledge with their peers. Thus, peer learning can of course take place between non-students, and it can concern productive, as well as educational, goals.
22 http://paragogy.net/ParagogyPaper2
Paragogy: Five Principles
1. Changing context as a decentred centre (Co-creating the learning environment)
2. Meta-learning as a font of knowledge: (Learning how to learn)
3. Peers provide feedback that wouldn’t be there otherwise
4. Learning is distributed and nonlinear 5. Realize the dream if you can, then wake up! (Critical
thinking about goals)
