edublogs: Magnetism explained beautifully - 0 views

  •  
    If you're a science teacher trying to explain magnetism, you could do a lot worse than showing this beautiful animated film produced for Channel 4 with Arts Council England. As the blurb says: "Are we observing a series of scientific experiments, the universe in flux, or a documentary of a fictional world?"

  • Me aprovecho del brillante trabajo de Bruce Branit (verdaderamente impresionante el corto World Builder) [alt1040] para anunciar otro brillante trabajo, pero que además de sorprender la imaginación promete generar una reacción en cadena de sinapsis neuro-digitales. Me refiero al nuevo trabajo de Alejandro Piscitelli: “Nativos Digitales, Dieta cognitiva, Inteligencia Colectiva y Arquitecturas de la Participación”. (Santillana - 2009).
  • En nativos-digitales.com.ar el autor adelanta que el texto estará compuesto de 3 partes: - I. Los nativos digitales, una nueva clase cognitiva. - II. Educando a los nativos digitales en espacios de afinidad. - III. Gestionando los contextos de cambio caóticos en los que vivirán los nativos digitales.
  • Compendio de los capítulos que tiene este trabajo: o Cap.01 Nativos Digitales o Cap.02 Nuevos Formatos o Cap.03 Videojuegos o Cap.04 TV inteligente o Cap.05 Generación Einstein o Cap.06 Alfabetización Digital o Cap.07 Docentes 2.0 o Cap.08 Educ.ar o Cap.09 Software social o Cap.10 Par a Par o Cap.11 Cambios masivos o Cap.12 Mediacions Tecnológicas

How To Define Web 3.0 | How To Split An Atom - 1 views

  • I think I have managed to explain Web 3.0 quite nicely, so without further ado. Definition: Highly specialized information silos, moderated by a cult of personality, validated by the community, and put into context with the inclusion of meta-data through widgets.
  • Web 3.0 will take this one step further. If you are searching for information on Cars, for example, you would use the search engine as you normally would, but your results would be more specialized subengines.
  • Web 2.0 brought us a change in the basic way that we search, tagging.
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • The strong algorithms that are currently used would be kept, but in addition some weight would be given to items that the community has flagged as interesting or voted on. Meme: Community built around search results.
  • You could type in what you were looking for, “conservative viewpoint on Darwin” for example and it would pull up results ordered by relevance (algorithms), tagging, and validation through user voting.
  • Seeking Validation
  • Seeking Entertainment
  • StumbleUpon may be the closest analogy to how we will be entertained in Web 3.0. You fill out a profile, define your tags and then flip the channel.
  • Meme: Relevance through user interaction.
  • Imagine a world where you could search a name and bring up that person, all the social networks they belong to, and produce a feed around them.
  • If I put a proper name into the search engine of Web 3.0 it would provide the running profile of my presence on the web; it would show everything in the webosphere that has been tagged as belonging to me, ordered by community validation and relevance.
  • In this Wikiality my page would contain both information that I have written about myself and information that has been written about me.
  • Meme: Everyone will have Page Rank.
  • Web 3.0 will see a more complete integration between devices like cell phones and the world wide web (does anything still use that term?) Posting pictures, videos and text from anywhere, anytime with as little hassle as possible.
  • Our pages will be little more than our personal interpretations of all the data available on the web, plugged into these pages through a growing array of widgets and shared with the world. Meme: The Widget Web
  • Summary Specialized Subengines for Search Social Networks replaced by People Search Your Online Presence Searchable, Taggable and Ordered by Relevance through Voting and Algorithms Increased Microblogging and more Powerful Widgets to allow you to place any of your feeds anywhere. Increased Integration between devices like cell phones and the web.
  • In ten years RSS and its related technologies will be seen as the single most important internet technology since Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau created the World Wide Web at CERN around 17 years ago.
  • If Web 3.0 is the Semantic Web, where computer agents read content like human beings do — then RSS will be its eyes (or at least its corrective lenses).
  • In this future, RSS will be extended to include a host of data-points it currently does not. Each blog post (or microblogging feed), every picture, every video clip will have searchable, taggable, XML based syndication around it.
  • Finally, RSS enables users to define their own contexts for information. Imagine a word where creating a mashup between Google maps and your Twitter account was no more difficult than sticking a few widgets together.
  • If you used a search engine, your results would be weighted based not only on the standard Web 3.0 metrics, but also on “what you care about” as defined by all your previous interactions with this particular search engine and all of this would be completely transparent.
  • Programs that surf the web for you will become more and more powerful. In a world where your personal profile containing your likes, dislikes and search history is as easy to upload as it is to add a feed to your RSS reader, it is no surprise that a major industry will be software that does your searching for you.
  • Microblogging will be the critical change in the way we write in Web 3.0. Imagine a world where your mobile phone, your email, and you television could all produce feedback that could easily be pushed to any or all blogging platforms. If you take a picture from your smart-phone, it would be automatically tagged, bagged and forwarded to your “lifestream”. If you rated a television show that you were watching, your review would be forwarded into the stream.
  • Fortunately, microblogging also opens up the world to new opportunities. Live blogging, a technique usually reserved for important events, would become common. If you can’t actually be at a conference, pictures, video and commentary could be pushed to you in real time. The entire world would become an Op-Ed piece.
  • In Web 3.0 search engines will need to have a better understanding of “context”. One way to accomplish this is to take a nod from directories and allow results to be tagged. These tags can be voted on by the community and would only be an addition to, not a replacement for, traditional sorting algorithms.

A WEB-EMPOWERED REVOLUTION IN TEACHING - TEDChris: The untweetable - 0 views

  • Five years ago, an amazing teacher or professor with the ability to truly catalyze the lives of his or her students could realistically hope to impact maybe 100 people each year. Today that same teacher can have their words spread on video to millions of eager students.
  • Driving this unexpected phenomenon is the fact that the physical cost of distributing a recorded talk or lecture anywhere in the world via the internet has fallen effectively to zero
  • Indeed the very definition of "great teacher" will expand, as numerous others outside the profession with the ability to communicate important ideas find a new incentive to make that talent available to the world. Additionally every existing teacher can greatly amplify their own abilities by inviting into their classroom, on video, the world's greatest scientists, visionaries and tutors.

  • But a young girl born in Africa today will probably have access in 10 years' time to a cell phone with a high-resolution screen, a web connection, and more power than the computer you own today. We can imagine her obtaining face-to-face insight and encouragement from her choice of the world's great teachers. She will get a chance to be what she can be. And she might just end up being the person who saves the planet for our grandchildren.

Education Futures - Going global and purposive - 0 views

  • Five years ago, an amazing teacher or professor with the ability to truly catalyze the lives of his or her students could realistically hope to impact maybe 100 people each year. Today that same teacher can have their words spread on video to millions of eager students.
  • So, there we go. The question isn’t access to technologies, but how we make the most of the technologies and knowledge resources available. Rather than blindly advocating for technological adoption, is it now time to focus on the purposive use of technologies for human capital development?

Blog de Guillermo Lutzky: Asnos cargados de libros - 0 views

  • El plan de estudios de talla única debe desaparecer.
    • Tero Toivanen
       
      Estoy de acuerdo! Cada estudiante debe estudiar su propio plan de estudios.
  • Estoy a favor de que los niños aprendan sobre lo que les interesa bajo la guía de expertos y profesores que les indiquen direcciones razonables.
  • Roger C. Schank
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Si queremos llegar hasta el final de los estudios, tenemos que pasar, año tras año, por una serie de asignaturas obligatorias que van en bloque y son comunes a todos los alumnos.
  • El cambio lo impiden las universidades, que realmente no tienen ningún interés en la escuela secundaria. En resumen, no quieren enseñar materias de escuela secundaria en la universidad.
  • Todo el colegio es una pérdida de tiempo si piensas que su papel es realmente el aprendizaje. La educación más importante ocurre en casa o en el trabajo. La mayoría de lo que se aprende en el colegio se olvida.
  • Enseñar es un trabajo terrible. No consigue respeto y la escuela no permite a los profesores ser buenos en lo que hacen de ninguna forma real.
  • Necesitamos convertir la enseñanza en supervisión. La supervisión sólo puede hacerse en un plan de estudios en el que los niños están intentando conseguir algo, y realmente quieren hacerlo.

      Exactamente!

  • What visitors will find at an online library might surprise them. The sites are no longer merely massive infodumps of electronic text. Harnessing new technologies, libraries are posting sound and video files, blogs, and podcasts.
