Development - Augmented Reality and Web 3.0 | Delta Publishing - English Language Teaching - 0 views

  • What about Web 3.0? So, that’s a very brief description of the shift to Web 2.0, but what about Web 3.0? Does there have to be one? Is it already here? I’ve heard quite a few people speculating about Web 3.0. At one point, when virtual worlds such as Second Life were all the rage, it was being described as Web 3.D and many were predicting that the web would become a 3 dimensional space that we would fly around using our virtual avatars. Others have described Web 3.0 as the ‘semantic web’. The development of semantic web standards was designed to help computers ‘understand’ and read web pages and make connections between them. This would dramatically improve the effectiveness of search engines and help people to access web based information more effectively. One of the most recent predictions is that with the drastic growth of internet able hand-held devices such as phones, gaming consoles and tablet devices Web 3.0 will be all about ‘the mobile web’.
  • Augmented reality is a kind of fusion between our existing physical reality and the internet.
  • What it means in reality is that mobile devices, will help us to access information from the internet which is specific to our physical location and proximity to real world objects places and even people. Check out mobile apps from Gowalla and Foursquare for examples of this.

  • What’s more devices that have some form of optic, such as a camera, will enable us to see and interact with 3D multimedia visualizations of information which can be overlaid on what the camera shows us of the ‘real’ world. here’s an interesting video of an augmented reality web browser being used on a mobile phone; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b64_16K2e08

Education Week: Use Technology to Upend Traditional Classrooms - 0 views

  • The most impressive technology-rich classrooms don't look like classrooms. Instead, they look like creative businesses on deadline—like advertising agencies pulling together a big campaign, architectural firms drawing up blueprints, or software companies developing new programs.
  • The teacher circulated through the classroom like a project manager, answering questions, providing feedback, holding students accountable to deadlines, and providing just-in-time instruction.

      this is the most important piece - working together instead of studying alone.

  • The creative-agency metaphor is particularly useful for thinking about the possibilities of new technologies since it stands in stark contrast to the dominant metaphor of schooling: the factory, where a standardized curriculum is delivered as efficiently as possible to groups of students treated as uniform receptacles.
  • "Do schools spend huge sums on technology to do different things or to do the same things faster?
