    Durante las dos últimas décadas, millones de Recursos Educativos Abiertos (REA) están a libre disposición para los profesores y estudiantes en línea. Estos recursos son generalmente accesibles a través Repositorios de Objetos de Aprendizaje (LORS), que son bases de datos con una interfaz de usuario. Los Repositorios de Objetos de Aprendizaje rara vez se utilizan en todo su potencial y, a menudo se considerados como "fracasos". Estudios anteriores han demostrado que la calidad tiene un papel crítico en el éxito de los sistemas de información, tales como LORS. Sin embargo no existen pautas comunes para la garantía de calidad para los enfoques LORS, ni existen estudios sobre la contribución de los diferentes enfoques de aseguramiento de la calidad LOR para el éxito de un repositorio. La medición de la calidad y el éxito han demostrado ser un desafío en la comunidad de investigación debido a la naturaleza subjetiva y dinámica de tales conceptos. Para hacer frente a este reto, esta tesis estudia la percepción de los usuarios y desarrolladores con LOR desde mútiples perspectivas metodológicas. La aportación de esta tesis al discurso académico se debe a su profundización de la comprensión de las percepciones de los usuarios y desarrolladores de LORS sobre la calidad y el éxito de los repositorios. para ello se desarrollaron marcos para enfoques de garantía de calidad y medidas de éxito de Repositorios de Objetos de Aprendizaje con el fin de identificar y enfoques de diseño que aumentarían el éxito de los repositorios, como un aporte teórico. Los resultados de estos estudios muestran que opiniones de los expertos en combinación con los enfoques de calidad generados por los usuarios (por ejemplo, sistemas de recomendación revisiones por pares, comentando, etiquetado, etc.) contribuyen al éxito del repositorio.El aporte práctico de esta tesis es un conjunto de recomendaciones hacia el diseño de estrategias de calidad de los Repositorio

The trouble with Khan Academy - Casting Out Nines - The Chronicle of Higher Education - 2 views

  • Let’s start with what Khan Academy is. Khan Academy is a collection of video lectures that give demonstrations of mechanical processes. When it comes to this purpose, KA videos are, on the average, pretty good. Sal Khan is the main reason; he is approachable and has a knack for making mechanical processes seem understandable. Of course, his videos are not perfect. He tends to ramble a lot and get sidetracked; he doesn’t use visuals as effectively as he could; he’s often sloppy and sometimes downright wrong with his math; and he sometimes omits topics from his subjects that really need to be there (LU decomposition in linear algebra, for example). But on balance, KA is a great resource for the niche in which it was designed to work: giving demonstrations of mechanical processes.
  • But let’s also be honest about what Khan Academy is not. Khan Academy is not a substitute for an actual course of study in mathematics. It is not a substitute for a live teacher. And it is not a coherent curriculum of study that engages students at all the cognitive levels at which they need to be engaged. It’s OK that it’s not these things. We don’t walk into a Mexican restaurant and fault it for not serving spaghetti. I don’t fault Khan Academy for not being a complete educational resource, because it wasn’t designed for that purpose. Again, Khan Academy is a great resource for the niche in which it was designed to work. But when you try to extend it out of that niche — as Bill Gates and others would very much like to do — all kinds of things go wrong.
  • When we say that someone has “learned” a subject, we typically mean that they have shown evidence of mastery not only of basic cognitive processes like factual recall and working mechanical exercises but also higher-level tasks like applying concepts to new problems and judging between two equivalent concepts. A student learning calculus, for instance, needs to demonstrate that s/he can do things like take derivatives of polynomials and use the Chain Rule. But if this is all they can demonstrate, then it’s stretching it to say that the student has “learned calculus”, because calculus is a lot more than just executing mechanical processes correctly and quickly. To say that it is not — that knowledge of calculus consists in the ability to perform algorithmic processes quickly and accurately — is to adopt an impoverished definition of the subject that renders a great intellectual pursuit into a collection of party tricks.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Even if the student can solve optimization or related rates problems just like the ones in the book and in the lecture — but doesn’t know how to start if the optimization or related rates problem does not match their template — then the student hasn’t really learned calculus. At that point, those “applied” problems are just more mechanical processes.
  • Khan Academy is great for learning about lots of different subjects. But it’s not really adequate for learning those subjects on a level that really makes a difference in the world. Learning at these levels requires more than watching videos (or lectures) and doing exercises. It takes hard work (by both the learner and the instructor), difficult assignments that get students to work at these higher levels, open channels of communication that do not just go one way, and above all a relationship between learner and instructor that engenders trust.

The 350 Best Education Resources Chosen By You | Edudemic - 152 views

    The problem with this list is half of them are self nominated and sites that are locked to requesting membership I'm order to eliminate spammers are excluded from entering awards. My group and site Technology Integration in Education had maybe 15000 followers when you include Linkedin, Twitter, Facebook, and its own site http://WWW.technologyintegrationineducation.com and has been nominated a few years on a row but never gets the nod because it is not an open site.

Hi Joshua, I think it's because my sticky note was private. For some reason my Diigolet wouldn't let me add a public one, but if you are able to make your one public that should do it. Hopefully!

  • The reality is that I no longer need to send my children to a school to learn algebra, U.S. history, or French.
  • That doesn't mean that we throw all information and knowledge out of the curriculum. No question, all kids need to be able to read and write effectively, understand enough math to function in their daily lives, and have a basic understanding of science, history, and more. But we must be willing to consider that in a world full of access to knowledge and information, it may be more important to develop students who can take advantage of that knowledge when they need it than to develop students who memorize a slice of information that schools offer in case they might need it someday
  • But giving students devices and access is only a small part of the equation
