Repositorio de documentación y recursos sobre sistemas BYOD (supercompleto). BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) or BYOT (Bring Your Own Technology) is gaining popularity in many schools as a way of increasing access to vital technology without the costly burden of purchasing a device for each student.

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is gaining popularity in many schools as a way of increasing access to technology without the cost of purchasing a device for each student. This toolkit is designed to help you evaluate the pros, cons and logistics of bringing student-owned technology into the classroom.

"Quizá podemos especificar qué es un adecuado "marco del aprendizaje" en la combinación de estos tres elementos, seguro que tú nos propones alguno más: Un buen educador: Con una excelente competencia en comunicación y habilidades interpersonales Con entusiasmo y la pasión por su materia Que tenga Auto motivación y la capacidad de motivar a los estudiantes Con excelente capacidad por el contenido de la materia y la manera de enseñarlo Con buenas habilidades para la gestión del aula Que disponga de habilidades de organización educativa Con una clara voluntad de ser innovador y creativo Con buenas habilidades para colaborar con los demás y trabajar de forma cooperativa como parte de un equipo.

Un aprendiz eficaz también busca activamente un cambio positivo y el crecimiento personal de sus capacidades. Según Marzano, Pickering y Pollock (Classroom instruction that works : research-based strategies for increasing student achievement / Robert J. Marzano, Debra J. Pickering, Jane E. Pollock.), aquellos estudiantes que aprenden a utilizar la enseñanza eficaz emplearían estas nueve estrategias que mejoran los porcentajes señalados : Identificar similitudes y diferencias (45%) Resumir y tomar notas mejora la retención (34%) Utilizar el refuerzo y reconocimiento (29%) Llevar a cabo tareas prácticas aumenta el logro (28%) El empleo de representaciones no lingüísticas (27%) El uso de aprendizaje cooperativo (27%) Establecer objetivos y proporcionar información periódica (23%) Generar y probar hipótesis aumenta el aprendizaje (23%) Preguntas, pistas y organizadores avanzados (22%)"

A flipped class keeps student learning at the center of teaching. Like the best classes have always done, this approach supports instructors playing their most important role of guiding their students to deeper thinking and higher levels of application.

Aquí os dejo un genial post de Randeen Simonsen sobre como trabajar las comunicación matemática a través de los blogs de los estudiantes. Sí, sé que está en inglés, pero es el más interesante que he encontrado para los docentes de Matemáticas.

by Hope Mulholland, TeachThought Intern BYOD policies-Bring Your Own Device-allow schools to bring technology into the classroom with a "bottom-up" approach. Such an approach can save money, allow students to use their own devices, and encourage a student-centered approach to learning.

Artículo en inglés... "Mobile devices as teaching tools are becoming a more and more common part of the American education experience in classrooms, from preschool through graduate school. A recent Pew Research Center survey found that 58% of U.S. teachers own smartphones - 10 percentage points higher than the national average for adults. Those teachers are building that tech-savviness into their lesson plans, too, by embracing bring-your-own-device policies and leading the push for an iPad for every student. In 2013, an estimated 25% of U.S. schools had BYOD policies in place and it's reasonable to assume those numbers have risen in the past two years. ..."

Las 3 reglas de @ramusallam: 1 la curiosidad va primero 2 aceptar el desastre 3 practicar la reflexión "It took a life-threatening condition to jolt chemistry teacher Ramsey Musallam out of ten years of "pseudo-teaching" to understand the true role of the educator: to cultivate curiosity. In a fun and personal talk, Musallam gives 3 rules to spark imagination and learning, and get students excited about how the world works. "

"A state-of-the-art supercomputer simulation indicates that a feedback loop between global warming and cloud loss can push Earth's climate past a disastrous tipping point in as little as a century. On a 1987 voyage to the Antarctic, the paleoceanographer James Kennett and his crew dropped anchor in the Weddell Sea, drilled into the seabed, and extracted a vertical cylinder of sediment. In an inch-thick layer of plankton fossils and other detritus buried more than 500 feet deep, they found a disturbing clue about the planet's past that could spell disaster for the future. Lower in the sediment core, fossils abounded from 60 plankton species. But in that thin cross-section from about 56 million years ago, the number of species dropped to 17. And the planktons' oxygen and carbon isotope compositions had dramatically changed. Kennett and his student Lowell Stott deduced from the anomalous isotopes that carbon dioxide had flooded the air, causing the ocean to rapidly acidify and heat up, in a process similar to what we are seeing today."

"This book is a collection of homework problems for use in an introductory physics course. It is a work in progress, currently complete through mechanics and electromagnetism. There is a complete set of ancillary materials, including solutions and an online answer checker. If you're an instructor, you can use these problems as a plug-in replacement for the ones in a commercial textbook, thus insulating yourself from common hassles associated with using the problems from a commercial text. For example, you can change books without having to redo all your problem sets, or you can tell your students that they can use any edition of a particular text."
