WHAT 2019 taught me! The hard truth!!

Well, there is a LOT to say about on the How-To about people understand the handling with the internet, Smartphones, especially from EDUcation, but ALSO about people from different ages and nationalities in my country Luxembourg as also online, as well as the behavior of persons which is increasingly becoming aggressive and unsocial! Generally said: There is a brutalization of society (Verrohung der Gesellschaft), manners aren’t nearly existing anymore, social behavior WHAT is it? THE EGO is dominating!!! People DON’T listen anymore, they are responding straight with an EGO-Message NOT related to the discussion ===> vom Thema abkommen (DE), NOT following the TOPIC (EN)!! There is generally a lack of QUALITY anywhere!!

Concerning EDUcation online on Social-Media twitter:

WHEN one follows Twitter-Chats: Chats existing > 5 years are STILL ONLY related to EDUTech, the tools and NOT related to Modern-Pedagogy, Modern-LEARNing, a stubborn manner to stay on Status Quo!!! WHEN will THE necessary CHANGE come?!!! THAT’S a RED-CARD (Arschkarte) from me to EDUcators, TEACHers!!!

Please read my blog post:

Concerning social behavior:

Bus-Stop Time-Tables

Unlucky wise I have a Bus-Stop +/- 10 cm in front of the house entrance with 2 and sometimes 3 different directions which means a HUGE traffic, noise and unsocial behavior. On the Bus-Stop there are rotating (mechanical) timetables, BUT a LOT of people aren’t able to use it and turn around themselves around the timetables (???) and walking inside my entrance of the house, which is private territory!!! ALSO they come in to the entrance and walk around, shouting in their smartphones and make a LOT of noise. NO respect, BUT they DON’T care about it!!! I installed an Alarm System to GET people away from it, LOTS don’t even care about it and when I go outside and explain that they are on private territory and that the Bus-Stop is outside my entrance they start to insult me, getting aggressive, some even wanted to give me a fight…

WE even had two times +/- 50 people in the entrance of the house and also in the garage entrance and wife was fearing as they didn’t move away after being told to leave the place; THEY became aggressive and rude!!!

Bus-Sto

Bus-Stop

.

In 2019 WE had +/- 200 alarms (siren noise…) which were provocatively made by teens for their fun by streaming videos about THEIR challenges to annoy the inhabitants of the house!!! These are no longer pranks and up from next year (2020) they will get reported to the local police!!! Enough is enough…

People think that WHATEVER THEY do is allowed as IF THEY were at home, which for sure ISN’T, looks like a turn to anarchy. Even elder persons (45-75 years old) are following this strange behavior, WHERE is or WHAT is Social in 2019?!!! A forgotten behavior, the comfort and the EGO took it over!!! Respect is a behavior which persons, whatever age, have forgotten!!!

Up from march 2020 transports (Bus, Tram and train) will be FREE in Luxembourg (as first country in the world) and wife and myself are already fearing WHAT will happen THEN!!! Hopefully NOT MORE asocial behavior in front of the house… Same situation for the increasing number in cyclists, they are driving on the side-walks, mostly in opposite direction as the traffic and I nearly got hit by them while walking on the side-walk! Even that there were 2 cyclists (male in the 30s-40s) were making “Freestyle Cycling” by running with +/- 40-50 Km/h over our entrance of the house, teen skaters used the entrance of the house for their training, teens are doing Parkour on the walls around and in the entrance of the house…

People take more freedom than the law allows!!!

Bus-Stop-Time Tables QR-Code

Concerning the use of Smartphones: nearly everyone has one, BUT they are not able to use it on the right way! Any time-tables in Luxembourg are accessible by an App and also by scanning the QR-Code which is printed on the time-tables. I have NEVER seen in 2 years ONE person who was using it in front of my house where the Bus-Stop is 10 cm in front. FYI: by turning around the time-tables that makes a LOT of mechanical noise as NOT greased and by hearing that noise more than hundred of times per day ====> GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

What Are THE BEST Ways Of TEACHing And LEARNing With ICT? | Ideas And Reflections As ALSO MY PracTICE

What Are THE BEST Ways Of TEACHing And LEARNing? | Ideas And Reflections As ALSO MY PracTICE

Online since 1998 and giving ICT courses since 2002 as an pedagogical/andragogical (Andragogy) instructor I was reading a lot of multilingual books (French, German, English) about Pedagogy <===> 21st Century Learning and Teaching: Multilingual Books Recommendations <===> and I was reading a lot ALSO on the internet from renowned Universities online (mostly from Canada) which helped me to progress for an Up-To-Date Professional Development.

.

Some reminders, please check images below please 😉

.

..

.

Of course WE can’t say by 100% WHAT is THE BEST ways of TEACHing and LEARNing, BUT WE can share OUR PracTICE on the How-To WE did it and analyze it over the years by adapting for BETTER on each day… Through using Social Media, especially Twitter and connecting with other EDUcators, TEACHers, Instructional Coaches, WE can accelerate it even!

.

I did THE <===> ICT PracTICE <===> and THAT’S WHAT the workforce needs!!!

Due to my eSkills I could share my knowledge AND expertise ALSO with the below mentioned as well as to a broad range of visitors from around the globe!

Check out my blog posts:

Feedback from Social Media Twitter and interesting question:

On 26-02-2016 I got a very interesting question posed by @EricssonCareers on Twitter, which I can’t answer with ONLY 140 characters and therefore I will answer it here in my blog post. See PIC below, please:

.

Well, through the proposed way of learning in this blog post the learners, students will learn:

Critical Thinking
- http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching?tag=Critical-Thinking
Proactive Thinking
- http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching?tag=Proactive+Thinking

Creativity
- http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=Creativity
- Design The Learning Of YOUR Learners, Students | Ideas

Collaboration and Global-Collaboration: learning to get on a win-win situation and learning from each other
- EDUcation-Collaboration And Coaching | The Future

Learning on their own pace (becoming ALSO autodidacts)
Learning every day through curation and being up-to-date with their <===> Professional Development
Connecting with others through Social Media an building a PLN
- http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=PLN
Being able to create a PKM
- PKM – Personal [Professional] Knowledge Management

Asking for feedback by peers through Social Media an getting BETTER through it…
Having the mastery of ICT and Technology…
Being informed about new trends and getting NEW ideas, inspirations for new markets…
…

.

Benefit for future innovators: by having learned in such an environment students, learners are used to work (learn) with a brain without pressure and will become “Open Minded” as well… A brain WHO doesn’t feel any pressure is FREE and ideas will flow, as it enhances creativity… And creativity is the major factor for innovation!

After Analyzing My Online Presence On Social Media Twitter Since 2009/Reflecting It…

27 Nov

.

Reflecting After Six (6) Years Online On Twitter On A Blog Post

First of all, it isn’t NOW after six years (2015) that I reflect about Twitter, I do this very often actually on Twitter itself! BUT it is NOW that I feel it necessary to post it ALSO in a blog post.

Let us talk about the reality first: MOST people DON’T understand THAT WHEN THEY post the whole world will see these posts instantly, YOU are NOT anymore at home OR in the <===> #SchoolCocoon <===> YOU are LIVE! 😉 .

Check my blog post below please:

Visual Social Media-How To explain to someone

After reading THAT, especially EDUcators, TEACHers, YOU SHOULD <===> understand (THE part which YOU are NOT GOOD enough about it, most of YOU!) <===> and especially visualized it internally in YOUR brain (found it back!?) WHAT YOU should publish and WHAT NOT!? Anything published will GET found by OTHERS from the WHOLE GLOBE! THUS meaning: poor learnt and published will GET seen by learners, students and THEY believe it!!!? Is THAT credible!??? Half-baked stuff posted by EDUcators, TEACHers!!!??? Cant’be possible would MOST readers say, BUT that is the truth! Is THAT EDUcation!!!??? NO, NOT AT ALL!!!

WHEN LEARNing is done by EDUcators TEACHers online, mostly through <===> Twitter Chat’s <===> it SHOULD BE professional, and the chat’s shouldn’t get used MOSTLY for chatting WHATEVER, NO talk, talk, talk…! It looks to me that MOST are people WHO don’t go out from house for socializing in Cafés, Pubs and who are using the chat’s mostly for socializing! THAT is NOT LEARNing, excuse-me, please 😉

.

And as those who know me, a music video sometimes in my blog posts 😉

.

Learn more:

HOW Could That Be Done BETTER!?

.

Well, that is actually NOT that difficult, THINK on the word <===> professional <===> please! Publish ONLY relevant stuff on Twitter and make the <===> Talk, talk, talk in a private NOT PUBLIC place <===!!! Readers DON’T need to see everything, show them ONLY the professional of YOUR profession 😉

WHAT could be places WHERE EDUcators. TEACHers could do that?

Example:

Check below please:

.

WHAT Profit Did I GET Out Of It!?

Social Media and Twitter have more positive aspects as MOST people THINK, especially for EDUcation, EDUcators, TEACHers and Students! One just needs to know THE PROFIT to take out from it! First of all it is about connecting with OTHERS and to create a “PLN” <===> Personal [Professional] LEARNing Network <===> and through that to build its OWN “PKM” <===> Personal [Professional] Knowledge Management <===> for its OWN <===> Professional Development <===> and ALL of this on ITS OWN PACE!!! NO STRESS, YOU decide WHEN to do it… I DIDN’T have to follow like shown in the picture on the left-hand side 😉 I am a self-directed LEARNer, an autodidact.

Social Media Twitter Helped ME A LOT!

.

As You could see from the above mentioned I earned a lot, I took out a lot of profit for my private life, my professional life and for my career! Read more below please:

PracTICE: How DOES The Internet Help ME In My Private Life, Professional Development, Job AND Career

.

It is all about to know the How-To on combining different skills together to make it a whole! Check the image below please and buy the book from <===> Howard GARDNER “5 Minds For The Future” <===> to LEARN more about it 😉

.

WHAT’S my message and WHY did I create this blog post!?

Firts of all I get a lot of profit out of the internet and the connections which I make with others: Well, I will encourage all youth and also adults, seniors, oldies to become <===>Life-Long LEARNers <===> and staying Up-To-Date with their knowledge, especially concerning their skills in ICT, called NOW <===> #eSkills <===>! In the modern world YOU will change YOUR job probably +/- 12 times in YOUR working career, it is very rare to stay life-long in the same job and/or same company!!! SO… The workforce is looking for people with ICT skills which YOU mostly didn’t learn at school, right!?

YOU won’t have (mostly) the time to learn by visiting courses, right!? START to become Life-Long LEARNers by LEARNing on YOUR OWN pace, by becoming <===> Autodidacts <===> Self-Directed LEARNers. YOU are able to, I did it, so can YOU!? 😉

I found a job because of my ICT eSkills and I am STILL LEARNing on a daily base routine for being Up-To Date with my <===> Professional Development <===>, even being retired NOW! THE pleasure of LEARNing!

I did THE <===> ICT PracTICE <===> and THAT’S WHAT the workforce needs!!!

Due to my eSkills I could share my knowledge AND expertise ALSO with the below mentioned as well as to a broad range of visitors from around the globe!
