I just came across this ancient painting which I think is a wonderful reminder that with all our supposed innovation, much of the educational process has remained recognizably unchanged for centuries.<\/p>\n

\"Ed1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A 700 year old painting of a medieval lecturer and his class by Laurentius de Voltolina from the 14th century, now in the German Nat'l. Museum in Berlin.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Ed2\"
Looks to me like there are maybe four Auditory Learners<\/span><\/strong><\/span> 
listening closely to the teacher; <\/p>\n

perhaps another six Visual Learners 
<\/span><\/strong><\/span>listening a little as they follow along in their books;<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Ed3\"
another five or six Social Interaction Learners<\/span><\/strong><\/span> 
who learn mostly by discussing the material.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Ed4\"<\/p>\n

And then apparently at least four Kinesthetic Learners 
<\/span><\/strong>who are the ones sound asleep,
who just don\u2019t learn in the context of a lecture
but need to somehow make it active and tangible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It also looks like there are three typical school staff (Teaching Assistants)<\/span> <\/span>on the side catching up on class-related email and teaching prep during class.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Ed6\"But then there is this interesting last guy on the far left<\/span>.  I\u2019m hoping that he\u2019s an educational coach<\/span><\/strong> from the university training team, who\u2019s trying to encourage the teacher to make eye contact and connect with his students; and to teach to a greater mix of learning styles.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What do you think?<\/span><\/em>
