Las Tics Y La Preparacion Del Docente | Las Noticias de la Educación - 0 views

  • “la utilización de las nuevas tecnologías, en especial de la informática como herramienta en el proceso de mediación enseñanza aprendizaje, se va convirtiendo día a día en un medio frecuente en nuestras aulas en los tres niveles de enseñanza: Primaria, Media y Superior”, ya que las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación abren nuevas perspectivas a la labor educativa
  • y ensanchan el diapasón de información al estudiante, razón por la cual se necesita una preparación óptima del profesor en las TICs, así como una actualización permanente en función de los cambios que se operen en el proceso docente educativo a nivel macro social para irlo adaptando al centro educativo en dependencia de sus condiciones.
  • Sabido es que la generación nacida con la era de las TICs suele estar más familiarizada con esta tecnología que la anterior generación de profesores, razón por la cual es necesaria una mayor preparación del docente a fin de asumir los retos que se imponen ante él. Ya no sólo es la preparación y presentación de un Power Point en el aula, ahora es el dominio de una serie de conocimientos que se necesitan para orientarse en el uso de plataformas de enseñanza en las cuales el profesor se ve comprometido a superarse en aras de no aparecer desactualizado ante los alumnos.

Guided Research and the Dropbox Tool - 1 views

  • Many educators have a nagging concern that students will plagiarize work submitted for key written assignments. That is why experts in the field of academic integrity, such as Donald McCabe, have long suggested that a method to avoid plagiarism is to use guided research projects. A guided research project is one that is scaffolded into stages, such as an outline, a few drafts, and then a final submission. Guided research brings transparency to the writing process.

Pearson's "Free" LMS - 0 views

  • Many schools are rethinking the LMS, not just because these tools have cost them a pretty penny, but because they're looking for ways that can further student collaboration and that can emphasize content and learning and not just administration. That could put Pearson in a good position to be a go-to tool for schools, particularly if the focus becomes content, something Pearson does hold market control over. As the Delta Initiative's Phil Hill told Inside Higher Ed, Pearson "wants to change the perception of an LMS to [make colleges] say: �Hey, that's a commodity, that's a delivery system � and really education, and the education system, needs to be about the content itself and how students interact with that content.'"

      Learning Management Sistem educational tools
  • drian Sannier, senior vice president of product at Pearson, told Inside Higher Ed that the new OpenClass can be used absolutely for free. No licensing costs, no costs for maintenance, and no costs for hosting. So this is a freer offer than Moodle is. It's a freer offer than any other in the space. And from the email I received from the PR firm handling the announcement, I give you these gems: "Pearson Launches First Truly Free and Open Learning Platform for Higher Ed." The tool "Provides Open Access." And this is where we need to stop and scrutinize what's happening here and look past the invocations of "free" and "open." Why would Pearson offer a free LMS? For one thing, Pearson doesn't need to sell OpenClass. Its emphasis -- indeed, its strategy -- lies elsewhere. Pearson is the largest education company in the world -- with or without success in the LMS market -- with profits of �208 million for the first half of this year alone. Its educational sales are up 9%; it's educational profits are up 31%. Much those sales and profits come from educational content: textbooks -- both print and digital -- as well as other curriculum offerings. (Much of the profits come from assessment products and services too -- Pearson sells the textbooks and the standardized tests. That's pretty damn lucrative, clearly.) Pearson can give away OpenClass in the hopes that schools will go for the "up-sell" and buy the company's other offerings. Many schools are rethinking the LMS, not just because these tools have cost them a pretty penny, but because they're looking for ways that can further student collaboration and that can emphasize content and learning and not just administration. That could put Pearson in a good position to be a go-to tool for schools, particularly if the focus becomes content, something Pearson does hold market control over. As the Delta Initiative's Phil Hill told Inside Higher Ed, Pearson "wants to change the perception of an LMS to [make colleges] say: �Hey, that's a commodity, that's a delivery system � and really education, and the education system, needs to be about the content itself and how students interact with that content.'" For its part, Pearson says that it's not going to lock users in to using just its content. But I can't help but wonder if that's true. After all, I think we need to question its usage of adjectives like "free" and "open" here. Furthermore when a company touts Google's involvement when really, what we have here is just a fairly simple and straight-forward integration with Google Apps, we should be a little suspicious about the labeling and the marketing and our consumption habits.
