"It has me thinking about what it would mean to improve online classes. A few ideas come to mind: Use multiple platforms. I'm not against using an LMS as a central hub. However, I think it's valuable to experiment with the types of productivity tools you will actually use outside of a classroom. Use Google Docs to share ideas, create surveys, and ask questions. Use Google Hangouts to meet as a group. Go project-based. I haven't figured this out entirely with my first class but my hope is that we can go fully project-based in the same way that my face-to-face class is. In fact, the asynchronous nature of online classes actually means there is a better potential of creating a project-based culture that mirrors the way people actually work on projects. Make something together. I use a collaboration grid with co-creating and communicating on separate spectrums (x-axis) and multimedia and text on another spectrum (y-axis). This has been an effective way to think through collaborative tools that allow students to co-create. Embrace a synchronous/asynchronous blend: I love using Voxer because students can speak back and forth in the moment. However, if they miss it, they can listen to it later. The same is true of using a Google Hangouts On Air. Make it more connective. We tend to treat online instruction as if it is a linear process and we don't do enough to link things back and forth and connect ideas, resources, discussions and content creation in a seamless, back-and-forth nature. Incorporate multimedia. It's a simple idea, but I create a short video at the beginning of each week and I encourage students to create video and audio as well. This has a way of making things more concrete. There's something deeply human about hearing an actual human voice. I know, crazy, right? Go mobile. I don't simply mean use a smart phone. I mean assign some things that allow students to get out in the world and create videos, snap pictures,

"The Fairphone is a modular handset designed with repairability and ethical sourcing of its materials as headline features. It sold 60,000 units. Amazingly, for what sounds like a nerd-phone, almost half of those buyers had never owned a smartphone before. Now the Fairphone 2 is launching, and with a totally-new, in-house design. The new phone is even easier to repair, and because it was wholly designed by the FairPhone team, its supply chain is even more responsible than ever. The Fairphone is thicker than the latest iPhone or Samsung flagship, but that's the point. Instead of packing everything into a tiny case and keeping it there with glue, the Fairphone is designed to be taken apart. The lightweight magnesium frame supports modules that can be easily replaced by the user. "We have designed it with an aim to last three to five years, looking at making it robust and modular-for repairability," says Fairphone's chief communications officer, Tessa Wernink. "Obviously how long it lasts depends quite heavily on the user, so what we as a company are doing is offering an ecosystem around the phone that supports long-lasting use, first-hand or second-hand." Inside the case (itself one of several options) you'll find the core unit, containing all the chips and radios; a replaceable battery pack; a display that can be snapped off and replaced without any tools (not even a screwdriver); a receiver unit, which contains the front camera, sensors; the headset connector and microphones; a speaker/vibrator unit; and a camera module. These modules are designed to balance manufacturing complexity with repairability. For instance, the display comes as a standalone unit, but less-vulnerable components are bundled into one module. The camera, which people are most likely to upgrade as better versions become available, is also housed in its own module. That way you don't need to toss out your whole phone just to get a better camera. "In fact, the motto from the maker mo

"Here's how you can add email notifications to any Google Form in 5 easy steps: Install the Google Forms add-on, then click the add-ons icon inside the Forms Editor (it is the shape of a puzzle icon), choose the Email Notification for Forms menu and then click the Create New Rule menu. The configuration window will open inside the form editor. Enter your full name (or the sender's name) and also specify the list of one or more email addresses (comma separated) who should receive automatic email notifications when a form is submitted. If you would like to send an auto-confirmation email to the form's respondent after they submit the form, check the Notify Submitter option. You'll also need to select the question in your Google Form that asks the respondent for their email address. Go to the next screen and enter the subject line and message body of the email notification. You can customize the emails and include any of the {{form fields}} in the subject or body as explained in the next section. Click the Create Rule button to activate the form notification. Now open your Google Form, submit a test entry and then go to your Gmail Sent Items folder to see the email notification that has gone out to the recipients."

ENTRAMA es una colección multimedial destinada a todos los docentes de la educación secundaria argentina con propuestas de enseñanza de los Núcleos de Aprendizaje Prioritarios (NAP) que apelan al aprovechamiento pedagógico de recursos informáticos y digitales, para cada una de las . Se trata de una colección de propuestas que habilitan diversos recorridos y apropiaciones por parte de los docentes, que podrán seleccionar las actividades y recursos más adecuados a sus propósitos específicos y contextos de enseñanza. Cada docente podrá así incorporar algunos de los recorridos propuestos por ENTRAMA vinculándolos con sus propias propuestas y recursos. ENTRAMA es una producción federal y colaborativa; que fue elaborada por docentes y especialistas de todas las provincias y se proyecta en igual sentido, hacia la apropiación y recreación por parte de profesores y profesoras, en cada rincón del país. Por ello ENTRAMA es una herramienta que, inscripta en la política educativa argentina, resulta valiosa para asumir cotidianamente y en cada escuela el desafío de convocar a todos los adolescentes y jóvenes a una educación que los involucra como sujetos de derecho y les posibilita apropiarse y recrear nuestro mundo. Entramando NAP y enseñanza Acerca del origen de estas propuestas En el marco de sus políticas de enseñanza y luego del acuerdo curricular nacional para el ciclo orientado, en el año 2012, el Ministerio de Educación de la Nación promovió y coordinó la producción conjunta entre los equipos curriculares de la Nación y de las Provincias, de propuestas para el desarrollo curricular de los NAP de educación secundaria. Lo hizo desde el Departamento de Áreas Curriculares de la Dirección Nacional de Gestión Educativa con el asesoramiento del programa Conectar Igualdad, la Coordinación de Materiales Educativos, Educar y Canal Encuentro. Desde su concepción, ENTRAMA se relaciona directamente con el proceso de definición de Núcleos
