 * Where have you experienced authentic learning in your classroom?

Just last week during a PD session, a Spanish teacher had been having difficulty with linking to audio files in his Moodle course. It became clear that the issue wasn't linking files, but rather file management in folders. He simply did not understand the file structure and how data was stored within moodle.


 * Was it digital or not digital?

Digital


 * Where you saw the ah-ha moment happening to students.

The teacher (student) said "Oh!! Now I get it!". And he proceeded to get so much accomplished as he finally understood the process.

This teacher now felt empowered to do with his kids what he knew was possible and had seen others do. He now understood it. In addition to the regular form feedback via surgery, I received an email to that effect the next day.
 * Why was it so powerful?
