Numericable dévoile son projet de croissance pour le « nouveau » SFR, High-Tech & Médias - 2 views

  •  Environ 20 % des gens vont migrer [du réseau fixe ADSL de SFR vers le câble].
    • Emmanuel Zilberberg
       
      Est-ce que ce sera une source d'économie sur la boucle locale ?
  • (il projette une hausse du chiffre d'affaires de 2 % à 5 % par an) et de la rentabilité (40 % de taux de marge consolidé)
    • Emmanuel Zilberberg
       
      Tout bénéfice donc mais quel capex pour développer cette croissance ?
  • Non seulement la future entité achètera moins d'ADSL en gros à Orange, mais, en plus, elle va renégocier l'accord conclu entre SFR et Orange pour le codéploiement et le co-investissement dans la fibre optique en zone moyennement dense. Autrement dit, Numericable ne veut plus faire de la fibre là où il y a déjà du câble, et pourrait proposer à Orange de co-investir dans son câble.
    • Emmanuel Zilberberg
       
      Ce serait-là que la marge se formerait (OPEX) et que des CAPEX seraient évités ?

Does Teaching Kids To Get 'Gritty' Help Them Get Ahead? : NPR Ed : NPR - 49 views

  • they need to have a "growth mindset" — the belief that success comes from effort — and not a "fixed mindset" — the notion that people succeed because they are born with a "gift" of intelligence or talent.
  • ducators say they see it all the time: Kids with fixed mindsets who think they just don't have the "gift" don't bother applying themselves. Conversely, kids with fixed mindsets who were always told they were "gifted" and skated through school tend to crumble when they hit their first challenge; rather than risk looking like a loser, they just quit.
  • We don't use the word 'gifted' — ever," Giamportone says. "In our school, you will never hear it." " 'Smart' is like a curse," adds social studies teacher June Davenport.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • Instead, the school is plastered with signs and handmade posters promoting a "growth mindset."
  • The focus is always more on putting out effort than on getting the right answers. Teachers have been trained to change the way they see students, and how they speak to them.
  • praise students for their focus and determination.
  • "If I was an outsider and I was hearing this conversation, I might think that this was some kind of hippie-dippy love fest," concedes the teacher, Nathan Cearley. "But what you see is actually a more rigorous and risky learning environment."
  • In three years, Cearley says, he's seen kids grow less afraid of making mistakes, and more willing to ask for help. Test scores at Lenox have jumped 10 to 15 points.
  • The number of schools using Brainology is expected to double this year, from 500 to 1,000.
  • A limited intervention, she says, if not consistently reinforced in and out of school, can only have limited results. "We don't know whether we've had any effect — the jury's out," says Duckworth. "It just seems to me extremely implausible that that's going to permanently and impressively change a child."
  • "Grit as a goal seems to be multiply flawed and very disturbing," says education writer Alfie Kohn. For starters, he says, "the benefits of failure are vastly overstated, and the assumption that kids will pick themselves up and try even harder next time, darn it — that's wishful thinking."
  • if there's a problem with how kids are learning, the onus should be on schools to get better at how they teach — not on kids to get better at enduring more of the same.
    • Drew Rosenshine
       
      Yes, but once again this is not an either/or situation.
  • I don't think people can become truly gritty and great at things they don't love," Duckworth says. "So when we try to develop grit in kids, we also need to find and help them cultivate their passions. That's as much a part of the equation here as the hard work and the persistence."
  • But now, three years into the growth-mindset training at Lenox Academy, Blaze says, she believes "you can teach old dogs new tricks."
  • Does Teaching Kids To Get 'Gritty' Help Them Get Ahead?
  • After years of focusing on the theory known as "multiple intelligences" and trying to teach kids in their own style, Hoerr says he's now pulling kids out of their comfort zones intentionally.

eLearning Guild Research: What Are the Benefits of Social Learning? by Patti Shank : Learning Solutions Magazine - 19 views

  • zone of proximal development” (ZPD)
  • Consider for a moment the repercussions, for example, of helping people in your workplace get up to speed on a new system implementation.
  • This is expensive, of course. But even more problematic, it’s likely that the classes would be held prior to the implementation, and then people would forget much of what they learned by the time the implementation occurred
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • you could try another scenario, which better fits the way people learn
  • keep a number of volunteers across the organization well trained, then provide asynchronous training and performance support tools for the new system and allow these local volunteers to support people at their site.
  • Bandura is the person whom we can credit with the actual phrase “social learning.”
