  • It seeks to determine how a teacher can scaffold a networked learning approach while providing a foundation on which students take more control of the learning process.
  • Emerging web applications offer unique opportunities to customise the learning environment for individual learners
  • In the past, learning environments were immediately associated with a physical location
  • however, the concept is increasingly expanded to include online learning, virtual schools, and blended opportunities that combine traditional with digital options
  • Traditional, lecture-based classrooms are designed as passive learning environments in which the teacher conveys knowledge and the student responds (Chen, 2009). Imagine the potential frustration that self-regulated learning holds for students who are quite comfortably accustomed to specific teacher directions with finite expectations.
  • learner motivation
  • Personal learning suggests learner autonomy and increased self regulation
  • self-directed.
  • they are also required to take an active role in the learning process by making decisions
  • Teachers, on the other hand, are challenged to provide an appropriate balance between structure and learner autonomy in order to facilitate self-directed, personalised learning
  • Such a scenario further presents challenges to traditional forms of assessment
  • The role of a teacher within a student-centered approach to instruction is that of a facilitator or coach
  • He or she supports the students in their search and supply of relevant material, coordinates the students' presentations of individual milestones of their projects, moderates discussions, consults in all kinds of problem-solving and seeking for solutions, lectures on topics that are selected in plenary discussions with the students and conforms to the curriculum"
  • The purpose of this test case is to introduce a model for the student construction of personal learning environments that balances teacher control with increased student autonomy
  • a level of structure is required to scaffold the learning process
  • Networked learning refers specifically to "learning in which information communication technology is used to promote connections: between one learner and other learners, between learners and tutors, between a learning community and its learning resources"
  • Networked learning is manifested in personal learning environments (PLEs), or "systems that help learners take control of and manage their own learning"
  • a model of the networked teacher that represents an educator's professional personal learning environment (PLE)
  • Figure 1: The Networked Teacher (Couros, 2008) It is a model through which teachers begin to build professional connections to support teaching practice
  • The Networked Student Model adapts Couros' vision for teacher professional development in a format that is applicable to the K-12 student. It includes four primary categories, each with many components evident in the networked teacher version (Figure 2).
  • he networked student follows a constructivist approach to learning. He or she constructs knowledge based on experiences and social interactions
  • Constructivism encourages "greater participation by students in their appropriation of scholarly knowledge"
  • Technology supports this appropriation as a collection of tools that promote knowledge construction,
  • Networked Student Model.
  • Students use RSS and social bookmarking to organise information and build upon prior knowledge with the goal of completing a task or meeting a learning objective. Social media, or web-based applications designed for the purpose of interacting with others online, promote conversations. Blogs are an example of a vehicle through which students can reflect on the learning process. The sub-parts coexist to support a constructive learning experience. The student's personal learning environment pulls them all together.
  • Siemens (2008) associates the concept of connectivism with networked learning
  • in the networked learning environment, blogging is a key component of the personal learning environment through which students respond to and collect the opinions of others. Students identify blogs that target a specific unit of study, and they have the option to respond with opinions of their own.
  • In a traditional classroom setting, the teacher has primary control over the content.
  • Networked learning gives students the ability and the control to connect with subject matter experts in virtually any field.
  • The skill to identify valid content and expertise,
  • The connection to humans is an essential part of the learning process. That connection expands to include access to resources and creative artifacts.

      El elearner y el eprofesor, aprovechan la existencia del nuevo Espacio WEB en RED: Ecosistema de conocimiento personal (Espacio Social -Personas- + Espacio Digital -Recursos-INFO) + Tecnología + Procesos
  • design of the teacher-facilitated, student-created personal learning environment
  • The teacher was a facilitator in the process helping the student scaffold network learning and manage the content as it became more complex.
  • Construction of a personal learning environment does not necessarily facilitate comprehension or deep understanding
  • The networked student model is one of inquiry, or the process of "exploring problems, asking questions, making discoveries, achieving new understanding and fulfilling personal curiosity"
  • In guided inquiry, the teacher provides the problem and directs the students to the materials for investigation
  • The teacher is necessary to help the students navigate the breadth of content, apply the tools properly, and offer support in the form of digital literacy skills and subject matter expertise. Yet the teacher may not be the only expert in the learning process.
  • The test case for this model took place at a K-12 independent school in the southeastern United States. Fifteen students participated during a nine-week term as part of a contemporary issues research project. The contemporary issues course was unique to the school in its delivery. It was the first time a blended format had been offered. Students attended class three days face to face and two days online. Course assignments and discussions were organised using Moodle,
  • For the networked student project, each student selected a contemporary issue or topic for which he or she had a strong interest
  • Passion for a topic was one means of motivation
  • assessment of each student's ability to synthesise the research
  • The networked student test
  • It addresses the problem of determining the level of structure needed to facilitate networked learning while providing a foundation for greater student control over a personal learning environment
  • to collect student perceptions of the learning experience relative to their autonomy and comfort with the networked learning format
  • two key considerations when introducing the Networked Student Model. The first was student familiarity with web applications used to build the personal learning environment.
  • Second, considerably more structure was required since this was the first time each student embarked on the Networked Student Model.
  • The teacher gauged the level of structure depending upon the student's motivation, comfort with technology, and interest in the topic.
  • Patterns for networked learning
  • The learning environment slowly shifted from the classroom to online.
  • Google is used repeatedly because signing up for one account gave students access to a number of useful learning tools.
  • The level of structure is adjusted based on the prior experience of individual students.
  • Student activitylevel of structure
  • Personal learning environment toolset
  • a new tool was introduced each day over two weeks.
  • personal web page aggregators
  • iGoogle, PageFlakes, NetVibes, and Symbaloo
  • Personal web page compiles learning tools
  • There were four components of the assessment process for this test case of the Networked Student Model: (1) Ongoing performance assessment in the form of weekly assignments to facilitate the construction and maintenance of the personal learning environment, (2) rubric-based assessment of the personal learning environment at the end of the project, (3) written essay, and (4) multimedia synthesis of topic content.
  • Identify ten reliable resources and post to social bookmarking account. At least three new resources should be added each week. Subscribe and respond to at least 3 new blogs each week. Follow these blogs and news alerts using the reader. Subscribe to and listen to at least two podcasts (if available). Respectfully contact and request a video conference from a subject matter expert recognised in the field. Maintain daily notes and highlight resources as needed in digital notebook. Post at least a one-paragraph reflection in personal blog each day.
  • At the end of the project, the personal learning environment was assessed with a rubric that encompassed each of the items listed above.
  • The student's ability to synthesise the research was further evaluated with a reflective essay.
  • The personal blog provided an opportunity for regular reflection during the course of the project.
  • Students were instructed to articulate what was learned about the selected topic and why others should care or be concerned.
  • As part of a final exam, the students were required to access the final projects of their classmates and reflect on what they learned from this exposure
  • to give the students an additional opportunity to share and learn from each other.
  • Creativity is considered a key 21st century skil
  • A number of emerging web applications support the academic creative process
  • Students in this project used web tools to combine text, video, audio, and photographs to teach the research topics to others. The final multimedia project was posted or embedded on the student's personal wiki page.
  • The student-selected topics of study included
  • Video conferences were conducted with
  • All students participated in the video conferences and identified subject matter expertise as a key element of a personal learning environment.
  • Four key areas were targeted to assess the success of the project and determine whether an effective balance between teacher control and student autonomy was achieved:
  • Creation of the personal learning environment as a replacement for a traditional textbook
  • Student use of technology to complete projects was identified as important because the students had little prior exposure to technology as a learning tool.
  • Time management and workload were tangible measures of comparison from the student's perspective and indicated his or her ability to self regulate the learning process.
  • Student perception of whether he or she felt equipped to study other topics in this format with less teacher intervention provided some indication as to whether greater student autonomy was achieved

      La Univ. requiere cambios en 2 dominios: 1.- modelo de pedagogía (cómo se lleva a cabo el aprendizaje) y sustituirlo por el nuevo modelo de 'Aprendizaje colaborativo', y 2.- el modelo de producción de contenidos (producción colaborativa de K). Solo así la Univ. tiene la posibilidad de sobrevivir e incluso de desarrollarse vigorosamente en una economía global en RED.
  • First we need to toss out the old industrial model of pedagogy (how learning is accomplished) and replace it with a new model called collaborative learning. Second we need an entirely new modus operandi for how
  • (the content of higher education) are created.
  • Collaborative Learning: Reinventing Pedagogy
  • In the industrial model of student mass production, the teacher is the broadcaster
  • "In collaborative classrooms, the lecturing/listening/note-taking process may not disappear entirely, but it lives alongside other processes that are based in students' discussion and active work with the course material."
  • Collaborative learning has as its main feature a structure that allows for student talk
  • With technology, it is now possible to embrace new collaboration models that change the paradigm
  • This is not about distance learning
  • Rather, this represents a change in the relationship between students and teachers in the learning process.
  • Collaborative Learning Is Social Learning.
  • we need to focus not on what we are learning but on how we are learning
  • instead of starting from the Cartesian premise of 'I think, therefore I am,' . . . the social view of learning says, 'We participate, therefore we are.'"
  • the web provides powerful new tools and environments for collaborative learning
    • Enrique Rubio Royo
      Enrique Rubio Royo on 27 Jun 10
       
      Cómo posibilita la web el aprendizaje colaqborativo: 1.- Nuevas tools y entornos, como WIKIS y mundos virtuales como 'Second Life' 2.- Cursos online interactivos pueden liberar a los profesores de 'lecciones', consiguiendo tiempo para colaborar con los estudiantes. 3.- la web posibilita interaccionar con otros estudiantes independientemente del momento y del lugar 4.- la web representa un nuevo modo de producción del K, que cambia todo lo que tenga que ver con 'cómo' se crean los contenidos de los cursos de la Univ.
  • from wikis to virtual worlds like Second Life
  • However, the web enables social learning in other ways as well.
  • Collaborative Learning Embraces Discovery.
  • "The scandal of education is that every time you teach something, you deprive a [student] of the pleasure and benefit of discovery."14
  • Students need to integrate new information with the information they already have — to "construct" new knowledge structures and meaning.
  • Today, every college and university student has at his or her fingertips the most powerful tool for discovery, for constructing knowledge, and for learning.
  • the web
  • the web
  • seeing the web as a threat to the old order, universities should embrace its potential and take discovery learning to the next step
  • Rather
  • Collaborative Learning Is Student-Focused and Self-Paced.
  • the education model has to change to suit this generation of students. Smart but impatient, today's students like to collaborate, and they reject one-way lectures
    • Enrique Rubio Royo
      Enrique Rubio Royo on 27 Jun 10
       
      el nuevo modelo de educación debe adecuarse a la generación actual de estudiantes: inteligentes, impacientes, colaborativos y que rechazan las lecciones en una sola dirección. Quieren aprender, pero solo aquello que tengan que aprender, y desean aprender en un estilo que es el mejor para ellos'
  • "They want to learn, but they want to learn only what they have to learn, and they want to learn it in a style that is best for them."15
  • Collaborative Knowledge Production: Opening Up the University
    • Enrique Rubio Royo
      Enrique Rubio Royo on 27 Jun 10
       
      Hacia una emergente Red Global de Aprendizaje superior (Meta-universidad), a lo largo de 5 etapas: 1.- Intercambio de contenidos de cursos 2.- Colaboración en contenidos de cursos 3.- Co-innovación de contenidos de cursos 4.- Co-creación de K 5.- Conexión Aprendizaje colaborativo
  • The university needs to open up, embrace collaborative knowledge production, and break down the walls that exist among institutions of higher education and between those institutions and the rest of the world
  • To do so, universities require deep structural changes
  • in the open-access movement, we are seeing the early emergence of a meta-university
  • The Internet and the Web will provide the communication infrastructure, and the open-access movement and its derivatives will provide much of the knowledge and information infrastructure."
  • The emerging meta-university, built on the power and ubiquity of the Web and launched by the open courseware movement, will give teachers and learners everywhere the ability to access and share teaching materials, scholarly publications, scientific works in progress, teleoperation of experiments, and worldwide collaborations, thereby achieving economic efficiencies and raising the quality of education through a noble and global endeavor."17
  • For universities to succeed, we believe they need to cooperate to launch what we call the Global Network for Higher Learning
  • This network would have five stages or levels:
  • Level 1: Course Content Exchange
  • colleges and universities post their educational materials online, putting into the commons what would have traditionally been viewed as cherished and closely held intellectual property. MIT pioneered the concept with its OpenCourseWare initiative (http://ocw.mit.edu), and today more than 200 institutions of higher learning have followed suit.
  • Consider what a change this offers to a typical professor's life
  • Level 2: Course Content Collaboration
  • What higher education desperately needs is a social network — a Facebook for faculty.
  • Sharing materials is an important first step. But the course materials available freely online could also be constructed as a platform for users to collaborate and share experiences with the materials. As the Global Network for Higher Learning gains momentum, the volume of material being posted will become overwhelming, comprising not only text but also lecture notes, assignments, exams, videos, podcasts, and so on.
  • But it shouldn't be a standalone application; it should be integral to the Global Network for Higher Learning.
  • A little effort can yield large returns. For example
  • Level 3: Course Content Co-Innovation
  • the Wikimedia Foundation organized Wikiversity
  • The next level in the Global Network for Higher Learning goes beyond sharing and collaborating on course content to actually co-creating content. Professors can co-innovate new teaching material based on work already available and can then make this newly synthesized content available to the world.
  • For the ultimate course, teachers need more than course materials, of course. They need course software enabling students to interact with the content, supporting small group discussions, facilitating testing, and so on. Such software can be developed using the tried-and-true techniques and tools of the open-source software movement.
  • Sakai
  • Sakai.
  • Level 4: Knowledge Co-Creation
  • In the next level of the Global Network for Higher Learning, scholars move beyond course materials and collaborate to co-create all subject-matter-appropriate knowledge.
  • Knowledge from university-based research should be a public good.
  • Universities and academics need to embrace the Global Network for Higher Learning as the platform for collaboration in research, creation, communication, and exploitation of new knowledge. With the Global Network for Higher Learning, the current problems of academic journals would go away.
  • The traditional peer-reviewed academic journals would adopt a much more dynamic online process.
  • Level 5: Collaborative Learning Connection
  • How can we network the world's higher education institutions to go beyond the production of knowledge to the consumption of that knowledge by learners?
  • The 21st-century university will be a network and an ecosystem — not a tower — and educators need to get going on the partnerships to make this work for students.
  • Reinvention or Atrophy
  • he combination of the Internet, the new generation of learners, the demands of the global knowledge economy, and the shock of the current economic crisis is creating a perfect storm for universities, and the storm warnings are everywhere.
  • As the model of pedagogy is challenged, inevitably the revenue model of universities will be too.
  • Many will argue: "But what about credentials?
  • Others will argue: "What about the campus experience?
  • If institutions want to survive the arrival of free, university-level education online, they need to change the way professors and students interact on campus.
  • How, then, can universities reinvent themselves, rather than atrophy? What are the steps to be taken?
  • Adopt Collaborative Learning As the Core Model of Pedagogy.
  • Professors who want to remain relevant will have to abandon the traditional lecture and start listening to and conversing with students — shifting from a broadcast style to an interactive one
  • Professors should encourage students to discover for themselves and to engage in critical thinking instead of simply memorizing the professor's store of information. Finally, professors need to tailor the style of education to their students' individual learning styles.
  • The Internet and the new digital platforms for learning are critical to all of this, especially given the high student-faculty ratio in many universities.
  • Collaboratively Produce Higher Education Content and Knowledge by Launching the Global Network for Higher Learning.
  • Right now, universities around the world are embracing level one — course content exchange — of the Global Network for Higher Learning. But they need to move further in the next four levels.
  • Content should be multimedia — not just text. Content should be networked and hyperlinked bits — not atoms. Moreover, interactive courseware — not separate "books" — should be used to present this content to students, constituting a platform for every subject, across disciplines, among institutions, and around the world.
  • Build New Revenue and Collaboration Models between Higher Education Institutions to Break Down the Silos between Them.
  • we will need to build a collaborative revenue model and a new structure of transfer pricing.
  • Change Incentive Systems to Reward Teaching, Not Just Research.
  • If universities are to become institutions whose primary goal is the learning by students, not faculty, then the incentive systems will need to change. Tenure should be granted for teaching excellence and not just for a publishing record.
  • How can this be done?
  • Build the Infrastructure for 21st-Century Higher Education.
  • a new kind of infrastructure is required to realize the University 2.0.
  • The world needs a "Digital Marshall Plan."
  • Where is the University 2.0?
  • A powerful force to change the university is the students.
  • The Industrial Age model of education is hard to change. New paradigms cause dislocation, disruption, confusion, uncertainty. They are nearly always received with coolness or hostility. Vested interests fight change. And leaders of old paradigms are often the last to embrace the new.
  • Changing the model of pedagogy and the model of knowledge production is crucial for the survival of the university

  • While networks have always been the backbone structure of society and knowledge,
  • the experience of being part of a network was not fully conscious or even explicit
  • What mattered was who you knew and your role in society
  • overlooks an important question
  • Even the act of connection forming requires explicit activity from a person : “Follow X” or “Accept friend request from X”
  • The online formation of networks is more directive than the offline experienc
  • the connection seems more real, more intentional
  • The daily reality of being connected naturally raises questions about influence of an individual within a network and how information flows within that system
  • Klout analyzes influence
  • The prevalence of social network tools and the attention now devoted to analyzing the shape and attributes of those networks – and the evaluation of how information flows
  • Today, in contrast, our networks are explicit in tools like Facebook, Twitter, email, and LinkedIn.
  • Why? Why does information flow as it does? Why does a person decide to share information with her network?
  • Networks can be analyzed quantitatively to determine
  • I’m interested in the qualitative aspects of information flow
  • Why did you decide to post on your friend’s Facebook wall? Why did you decide to retweet a resource? Why did members of your network decide to retweet your comment?
  • What are the qualitative aspects of information objects that determine its likelihood of being shared or amplified within a network?
  • three elements
  • involved in addressing the question of
  • “why does information flow” in a network
  • 1. The individual.
  • how did the person get to have many followers?
  • He has 12000 followers.
  • Let’s look at someone like Alec Couros on Twitter.
  • He has posted over 55000 tweets (wow!).
  • qualitatively, how does Alec differ from others in his activities on Twitter?
  • because he posts more often?
  • Because he is talented at engaging with individuals?
  • because he replies to more of his followers
  • Does he participate in more network sub-clusters
  • Maybe he’s just a nicer person
  • Clearly, the activities of an individual plays a role in why information flows…
  • Context also influences why information spreads

  • This is really the heart of what I’m trying to understand.
  • What are the qualitative attributes of a message that influence why it is shared

  • Without appropriate technology tools and resources available in their work environment, they may look for help from non-work related services such as Facebook.com. Integrating social media into the development environment eliminates this potential challenge and at the same time increases the potential for success of the development effort and of the new managers. 
  • Can social networking provide a practical way to help prepare new managers for their duties? Considering the rapid growth of social networking adoption among younger workers, this is a question well worth asking

      A lo largo de todo el artículo, estableceremos la aplicación de lo que se dice tanto a 'managers' (artículo en si mismo, y que es también nuestro interés en ORG 2.0) como a formadores, profesores (que es nuestro interés en Aula 2.0)
  • The typical approach for many decades has consisted of a combination of classroom events, each lasting from one to five days (or more). This default design has many problems, including travel expense and time away from the job for the managers. Not infrequently, there are severe mismatches between what is taught and the actual practices supported by the organization’s culture.
  • There is an increasing number of companies and online service providers who are convinced that social networking can help overcome at least some of the issues common to the classroom-only approach
    • Enrique Rubio Royo
      Enrique Rubio Royo on 16 Oct 10
       
      Frente a los problemas y dificultades asociados al planteamiento tradicional de 'solo Aula', estamos convencidos de la bondad de la interacción social online. Combinando formación formal de Aula y referencias online y apoyo al rendimiento, junto con 'coaching', 'mentoring' y aprendizaje informal online a través de redes sociales (social networking), un joven profesor o directivo puede alcanzar una sólida formación teórica, ayuda 'justín´time', y adecuadas aplicaciones.
  • By combining formal classroom instruction and online reference and performance support with online coaching, mentoring, and informal learning through social networking, a new manager can gain a solid theory foundation, just-in-time help, and culturally correct application pointers.
  • Informal learning, as an object of attention by researchers, is not a new topic. However, it only appeared on the radar screens of instructional designers less than ten years ago. The emergence of online social media has led to the notion of somehow tapping into the potential of this channel, that carries so much of the real learning that goes on in organizations.
  • In our current age, we have plenty of channels in which informal learning can take place: everything from microblogs (Twitter), to communities (LinkedIn Groups, discussion forums), to user-created content (wikis, Weblogs, YouTube), to social bookmarking (Delicious), and surely more to come.
  • But we also have plenty of examples of attempts at use of these channels in which the attempts failed. The virtual landscape is littered with the remains of abandoned wikis, content-less and comment-less Weblogs, and LinkedIn Groups where the spam has driven out the discussion and all but eliminated any possibility of learning.
  • Existing informal learning groups online include a surprising variety of formats
  • Jay Cross’ Internet Time Community,
  • Participants in the Twitter #lrnchat sessions also comprise an ongoing informal learning group
  • if informal learning is going to take place online, it must be self-sustaining

  • here are the factors that seem to drive participation and commitment by members.
  • What makes informal learning online work?
  • Focus
  • Payoff
  • Leadership
  • Membership
  • Process
  • If a group lacks focus, or focus is too narrow, if the group’s process is too complicated, if there are not enough members, and if there are no rewards for participation, the group will fail. Informal groups are a lot of work to establish and maintain, and the work falls equally on all members.
  • Setting up a social network for manager training
  • The first task is to establish a design for the social interaction. This must come before technology selection, so that the limitations of the technology do not drive or constrain the interaction.

Una mentalidad distinta, o mejor dicho una percepción distinta del mundo que te rodea.

    Gran pregunta... comprar, comprar tecnología y ¿ahora qué?. Ya tenemos ordenadores en el aula ¿y ahora qué?. Existe una creciente aceptación del discurso pro-innovación tecnológica (dentro y fuera del aula), pero no se piensa en cómo enriquecer procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Se proponen, siguiendo a la OCDE, tres habilidades básicas: 1.- RECOMBINAR (Capacidad de crear, conectar y agregar contenidos); 2.- FILTRAR (Capacidad para discriminar información); 3.- COMPARTIR (Capacidad para crear y distribuir conocimiento). Además se habla también de 'habilidades blandas' (como ser colaborativo, resolver problemas, el autonocimiento, ser cooperativo, líder, etc.), Las cuales tienen que ver en cómo aplicar conocimientos en diferentes contextos con distintas personas. Aporta una serie de 'ideas clave', muy interesantes como estrategia de inmplantación de las TIC: -Es fundamental evitar soluciones educativas rápidas y estandarizadas - gran énfasis en la parte tecnológica, sin embargo no existe una consulta con quienes están en el aula - Se necesitan ciudadanos creativos no que memoricen. Si el mundo cambia, hay que ser adaptables; se necesitan estrategias flexibles

  • A finales de 2009, la deuda exterior total de España era de 1,735 billones de euros, equivalente al 170% del PIB.
  • El Gobierno, mientras tanto, aumentó el gasto público un 7,7% anual a partir de 2005.
  • Más de cuatro millones de trabajadores perdieron su empleo; la tasa de paro española, del 20%, es más del doble de la tasa media en Europa. Las prestaciones de desempleo, las más generosas de Europa, cuestan al Estado otros 32.000 millones de euros al año

  • "El problema es que nosotros tenemos que financiar nuestro déficit en los mercados y no estamos en la situación de Estados Unidos ni estamos en la situación de los países de fuera del euro, que, aunque no hagan una devaluación, pueden ver cómo su moneda se deprecia, en términos relativos, y eso les origina una ventaja competitiva",

    Con motivo del anuncio por parte de Pearson y Google, de la puesta en marcha de la nueva plataforma 'Open Class', excelente reflexión de G. Siemens acerca de la carrera abierta en el sector de la educación, por parte de las grandes empresas de LMS, tal como ya sucedió con Blackboard y su reciente compra de Elluminate y Wimba. ¿A qué se debe ésto?. A la complejidad de la tecnología actual, y a la necesidad en general de adoptar plataformas de convergencia (Social Media, Cloud computing, intranets, etc) y ,en particular la necesidad por parte de los responsables de las instituciones educativas, de propuestas que integren en una sola plataforma el propio 'proceso educacional', con el consiguiente peligro, tal como ha sucedido en otros ámbitos, pues 'quien posee la plataforma define las reglas y controla el juego' (tendencia hacia una centralización en red, tal como ya sucede con Google/Android, Amazon, Facebook, etc). En síntesis, tendencia hacia la centralización en red frente a topologías distribuidas, desplazando la diversidad fuera del 'sistema' y evidenciando los miedos a la tecnología en el sector de la educación (en todo su espectro o niveles) tal como ya ha sucedido en muchas partes de la sociedad.

shared by Enrique Rubio Royo on 18 Mar 10 - Cached
  • The Web is a non-linear environment which opens up potential for new approaches to learning and teaching, approaches which in many ways more closely approximate naturalistic and authentic approaches to learning. Yet a large proportion of online courses which have been developed in higher education represent conversions of print-based resources into Web-based delivery formats, the majority of which have replicated traditional linear and directive pedagogy. Such development represents something of a ‘miss-match’, not only to the online teaching environment but to the emergent learning approaches of a younger generation who are ‘at home’ with the online environment. This paper discusses the benefits of maintaining complexity and non-linearity in online learning with reference to the development of one tertiary course in computer education for pre-service teachers. The theory of complexity is briefly explored and its relevance to online teaching and learning is highlighted. An action research undertaking conducted over a four year period is drawn upon to illustrate the importance of future teachers understanding and experiencing non-linear and complexity-based online learning, and the metacognitive processes that can support adult learners to adapt to such an environment.

      La Web es un entorno no lineal que abre posibilidades para nuevos enfoques para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje, enfoques que en muchos aspectos se aproximan más planteamientos naturalistas y auténticos para el aprendizaje. Sin embargo, una gran proporción de los cursos en línea que se han desarrollado en la educación superior representan la conversión de recursos basado en papel a formatos de distribución Web, la mayoría de los cuales han replicado la pedagogía tradicional lineal y jerárquica. Tal desarrollo representa una especie de 'miss-match', no sólo para el entorno de enseñanza en línea, sino para a los enfoques de aprendizaje emergentes de una generación más joven que están "en casa" con el entorno en línea. Este artículo discute los beneficios de mantener la complejidad y la no linealidad en el aprendizaje en línea en relación con el desarrollo de un curso superior en la enseñanza de informática de los futuros profesores. La teoría de la complejidad se analizan brevemente y su relevancia para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje en línea se resaltará. Una tarea de investigación-acción realizada durante un período de cuatro años se aprovechará para ilustrar la importancia de que los futuros docentes entiendan y experimenten el aprendizaje en línea no lineal y basado en la complejidad, y los procesos metacognitivos que pueden apoyar a los estudiantes adultos a adaptarse a tal ambiente

  • remember Herman Ebbinghaus' findings from 1885 - 125 years ago - that on average we will forget about 50% of what we've 'learned' within 60 minutes if the information has no context and we don't have the opportunity to reinforce it through practice.

  • e. Networking skills
  • To identify and build relationships with others who are potential sources of knowledge and expertise, within and outside the organisation
  • f. People skills
  • To build trust and productive relationships that are mutually beneficial for information sharing
