Includes making thinking visible, leveraging authentic contexts, and fostering skills transfer.

Real World Application

Learning gets physical
Digital–physical fusion enables the community to truly become the classroom. Learning has always had a physical and emotional component that has been minimized as computers isolate students from each other, teachers, and the real world. Now technology enables mediated immersive learning. Students learn while moving through real environments with the mobile technology—so their cognitive apprenticeship involves not only their brains, but also their bodies in informal learning environments.
