Majlis Mohamed bin Zayed: let pupils learn at their own pace, says education expert

Michael Horn says mastery-based approach will help to develop critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration

The world needs to recreate traditional ways of schooling and allow pupils the flexibility to learn at their own pace, a leading education expert has said.

Speaking at the Majlis Mohamed bin Zayed in Abu Dhabi this week, Michael Horn, author and adjunct lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, said traditional schools were hurting pupil motivation and achievement.

He called for a new education system where pupils are not labelled by their grades.

In the majority of countries, we leave countless [pupils] behind in the zero-sum education system. There are many more losers than there are winners.
Michael Horn,
lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education

Mr Horn supports the mastery-based education approach, in which pupils only move on from a concept once they demonstrate mastery of the knowledge and skills at hand.

“Around the world, there is no country in which all [pupils] are excelling in fulfilling their human potential,” he said.

“In the majority of countries, we leave countless [pupils] behind in the zero-sum education system. There are many more losers than there are winners.

“In the United States, where I'm from, only one third of 12th grade [pupils] are proficient in maths and reading.

“This zero-sum education system systematically undermines collateral co-operation, systematically undermines co-operation, systematically undermines interconnectedness and is not only limiting the social development of our children, it is limiting their academic development as well.”

During a lecture titled “Education and Learning: Positive Progress Together”, he said schools were mostly all built on a zero-sum mentality, which considers the educational success of one child as paid for by the failure of another.

Allow pupils to learn at their own pace

The “road to a mastery-based education system” is simple but needs everyone’s collaboration, said Mr Horn.

Allowing each child to learn or master subjects at their own pace will help them to develop cognitive skills such as “critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration”, he said.

While mastery-based learning is a method often discussed by teachers, it is rarely put in practice because of the current system, which simply labels pupils as high or low achievers.

“We have built failure into the system by its very design,” he said.

“We have embedded the failure rates that we see by having a system that is fixed-time, with variable learning for every single child.

“But the good news is if we flip that equation we move to a system in which the learning is fixed, we guarantee mastery for every single child and we allow the time to be variable.”

By promoting this kind of learning method, every pupil will achieve learning success and develop as self-directed learners where they get to set a goal, plan how they are going to realise that goal, do the learning itself and then show evidence through an assessment or other means of what they have learnt.

At the mastery-based system, failure is part of the learning process and teachers play a critical role that is somewhat different than their current one.

“I think the big shift that we need to make is to team teaching; co-teaching for teachers where they get to be with other teachers in the classrooms,” said Mr Horn.

“To create a more interconnected learning environment where pupils are not islands unto themselves with one teacher, but there is more support for each teacher and the children have a web of support.”

Sheikh Hamed bin Zayed, managing director of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, attended the lecture at Al Bateen Palace in Abu Dhabi on Thursday.

Mercer, the investment consulting arm of US services company Marsh & McLennan, expects its wealth division to at least double its assets under management (AUM) in the Middle East as wealth in the region continues to grow despite economic headwinds, a company official said.

Mercer Wealth, which globally has $160 billion in AUM, plans to boost its AUM in the region to $2-$3bn in the next 2-3 years from the present $1bn, said Yasir AbuShaban, a Dubai-based principal with Mercer Wealth.

“Within the next two to three years, we are looking at reaching $2 to $3 billion as a conservative estimate and we do see an opportunity to do so,” said Mr AbuShaban.

Mercer does not directly make investments, but allocates clients’ money they have discretion to, to professional asset managers. They also provide advice to clients.

“We have buying power. We can negotiate on their (client’s) behalf with asset managers to provide them lower fees than they otherwise would have to get on their own,” he added.

Mercer Wealth’s clients include sovereign wealth funds, family offices, and insurance companies among others.

From its office in Dubai, Mercer also looks after Africa, India and Turkey, where they also see opportunity for growth.

Wealth creation in Middle East and Africa (MEA) grew 8.5 per cent to $8.1 trillion last year from $7.5tn in 2015, higher than last year’s global average of 6 per cent and the second-highest growth in a region after Asia-Pacific which grew 9.9 per cent, according to consultancy Boston Consulting Group (BCG). In the region, where wealth grew just 1.9 per cent in 2015 compared with 2014, a pickup in oil prices has helped in wealth generation.

BCG is forecasting MEA wealth will rise to $12tn by 2021, growing at an annual average of 8 per cent.

Drivers of wealth generation in the region will be split evenly between new wealth creation and growth of performance of existing assets, according to BCG.

Another general trend in the region is clients’ looking for a comprehensive approach to investing, according to Mr AbuShaban.

“Institutional investors or some of the families are seeing a slowdown in the available capital they have to invest and in that sense they are looking at optimizing the way they manage their portfolios and making sure they are not investing haphazardly and different parts of their investment are working together,” said Mr AbuShaban.

Some clients also have a higher appetite for risk, given the low interest-rate environment that does not provide enough yield for some institutional investors. These clients are keen to invest in illiquid assets, such as private equity and infrastructure.

“What we have seen is a desire for higher returns in what has been a low-return environment specifically in various fixed income or bonds,” he said.

“In this environment, we have seen a de facto increase in the risk that clients are taking in things like illiquid investments, private equity investments, infrastructure and private debt, those kind of investments were higher illiquidity results in incrementally higher returns.”

The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, one of the largest sovereign wealth funds, said in its 2016 report that has gradually increased its exposure in direct private equity and private credit transactions, mainly in Asian markets and especially in China and India. The authority’s private equity department focused on structured equities owing to “their defensive characteristics.”
