Previous Update 01/19/2015 Last Update 04/13/2015
Part I. About Referencing
Note A: As this course develops, academic and scientific references will be added to make it a credible and very valuable" informational resource".
Note B: Valuable references include but are not limited to these various fields of study:
- Linguistics
- Anthropology
- Psychology (Human Potential/Development/Educational)
- Sociology
- Language Arts
- Biology
Part II. About Approach to Building-Up Course Curriculum
Note C: The following link [1] leads to a course that all teachers/students are highly encouraged to participate in, as it helps foster basic skills in research, writing, and critical thinking, and it helps educators raise interesting questions about copyright, technology, and law, such as:
- What is legal online?
- How is creativity being enabled by new technologies?
- What digital rights and responsibilities exist already, and what roles do we play as users of digital technology?
Note D1: The type of education and research preferred is STEAM as opposed to STEM [2], which means creativity is of utmost importance... remember this study group is kid-friendly! :P
Note D2: To reiterate the above note... if a Kindergartner cannot follow along then we are not achieving kid-friendliness
Part III. Local Collaboration
Note E: You can always goto meetup.com and do a search for "polyglot" meetups in your local area and if no results, then perhaps consider starting a group... just a thought.
