El mito del progreso humano - 0 views

  •  
    "... La especie humana, encabezada por europeos y euro-americanos blancos, ha lanzado, desde hace 500 años, una estampida violenta de conquista, saqueo, depredación, explotación y contaminación de la Tierra -matando al mismo tiempo a las comunidades indígenas que hallan en su camino. Pero el juego ha llegado a su fin. Las fuerzas técnicas y científicas que permitieron crear una vida de lujos sin paralelo son las mismas fuerzas que nos condenan. La manía de la expansión económica y explotación sin límites se ha convertido en una maldición, en una sentencia de muerte. Pero incluso mientras se desintegra nuestro sistema económico y del medio ambiente, después del año más caliente en los 48 estados contiguos de EE.UU. desde que se lleva el registro iniciado hace 107 años, carecemos de la creatividad emocional e intelectual para apagar el motor del capitalismo global. Nos hemos atado a una máquina de la muerte, como lo explica el borrador del reporte del Comité Asesor de Evaluación y Desarrollo Climatológico Nacional. ..."

The Computer Delusion - The Atlantic - 7 views

  • IN 1922 Thomas Edison predicted that "the motion picture is destined to revolutionize our educational system and ... in a few years it will supplant largely, if not entirely, the use of textbooks."
  • William Levenson, the director of the Cleveland public schools' radio station, claimed that "the time may come when a portable radio receiver will be as common in the classroom as is the blackboard.
  • B. F. Skinner, referring to the first days of his "teaching machines," in the late 1950s and early 1960s, wrote, "I was soon saying that, with the help of teaching machines and programmed instruction, students could learn twice as much in the same time and with the same effort as in a standard classroom."

  • a bridge to the twenty-first century ... where computers are as much a part of the classroom as blackboards
  • We could do so much to make education available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, that people could literally have a whole different attitude toward learning
  • Larry Cuban, a professor of education at Stanford University and a former school superintendent, observed that as successive rounds of new technology failed their promoters' expectations, a pattern emerged
  • Today's technology evangels argue that we've learned our lesson from past mistakes
  • The promoters of computers in schools again offer prodigious research showing improved academic achievement after using their technology
  • killed its music program last year to hire a technology coordinator
  • The possibilities of using this thing poorly so outweigh the chance of using it well, it makes people like us, who are fundamentally optimistic about computers, very reticent
  • Perhaps the best way to separate fact from fantasy is to take supporters' claims about computerized learning one by one and compare them with the evidence in the academic literature and in the everyday experiences I have observed or heard about in a variety of classrooms.
  • Computers improve both teaching practices and student achievement.
  • Computer literacy should be taught as early as possible; otherwise students will be left behind.
  • To make tomorrow's work force competitive in an increasingly high-tech world, learning computer skills must be a priority.
  • Technology programs leverage support from the business community—badly needed today because schools are increasingly starved for funds.
  • Work with computers—particularly using the Internet—brings students valuable connections with teachers, other schools and students, and a wide network of professionals around the globe.
  • Connecting K-12 Schools to the Information Superhighway
  • begins by citing numerous studies that have apparently proved that computers enhance student achievement significantly
  • n the early 1980s Apple shrewdly realized that donating computers to schools might help not only students but also company sales, as Apple's ubiquity in classrooms turned legions of families into Apple loyalists
  • there is scant evidence of greater student achievement.
  • They're especially weak in measuring intangibles such as enthusiasm and self-motivation
  • Computers in classrooms are the filmstrips of the 1990s
  • Apple quickly learned that teachers needed to change their classroom approach to what is commonly called "project-oriented learning
  • students learn through doing and teachers act as facilitators or partners rather than as didacts.
  • the guide on the side instead of the sage on the stage
  • But what the students learned "had less to do with the computer and more to do with the teaching,
  • Even in success stories important caveats continually pop up. The best educational software is usually complex — most suited to older students and sophisticated teachers.
  • Part of the answer may lie in the makeup of the Administration's technology task force
  • Each chapter describes various strategies for getting computers into classrooms, and the introduction acknowledges that "this report does not evaluate the relative merits of competing demands on educational funding
  • Hypertext Minds
  • Today's parents, knowing firsthand how families were burned by television's false promises, may want some objective advice about the age at which their children should become computer literate
  • Opinions diverge in part because research on the brain is still so sketchy, and computers are so new, that the effect of computers on the brain remains a great mystery.
  • that the mediated world is more significant than the real one.
  • n the past decade, according to the presidential task force's report, the number of jobs requiring computer skills has increased from 25 percent of all jobs in 1983 to 47 percent in 1993
  • told me the company rarely hires people who are predominantly computer experts, favoring instead those who have a talent for teamwork and are flexible and innovative
  • Many jobs obviously will demand basic computer skills if not sophisticated knowledge. But that doesn't mean that the parents or the teachers of young students need to panic.
  • NEWSPAPER financial sections carry almost daily pronouncements from the computer industry and other businesses about their high-tech hopes for America's schoolchildren
  • High-tech proponents argue that the best education software does develop flexible business intellects
  • IT is hard to visit a high-tech school without being led by a teacher into a room where students are communicating with people hundreds or thousands of miles away — over the Internet or sometimes through video-conferencing systems (two-way TV sets that broadcast live from each room).
  • The free nature of Internet information also means that students are confronted with chaos, and real dangers
  • We need less surfing in the schools, not more
  • chooling is not about information. It's getting kids to think about information. It's about understanding and knowledge and wisdom

Low tech website solar powered - 0 views

  •  
    "Our new blog is designed to radically reduce the energy use associated with accessing our content. Low-tech Magazine was born in 2007 and has seen minimal changes ever since. Because a website redesign was long overdue - and because we try to practice what we preach - we decided to build a low-tech, self-hosted, and solar-powered version of Low-tech Magazine. The new blog is designed to radically reduce the energy use associated with accessing our content. Why a Low-tech Website? We were told that the Internet would "dematerialise" society and decrease energy use. Contrary to this projection, it has become a large and rapidly growing consumer of energy itself. In order to offset the negative consequences associated with high energy consumption, renewable energy has been proposed as a means to lower emissions from powering data centers. For example, Greenpeace's yearly ClickClean report ranks major Internet companies based on their use of renewable power sources."

La evaluación en la clase cooperativa (I) - 0 views

  •  
    "¿Qué beneficios aporta aprender de forma cooperativa? Ya desde finales del siglo XIX se empezó a utilizar esta metodología dentro del aula, lo cual ha permitido que haya habido multitud de estudios para comprobar su validez. Gracias a esos estudios e investigaciones se sabe que la cooperación en el aula aplicada al aprendizaje da lugar a los siguientes resultados: Aumento de la motivación y de la productividad. Nivel superior de razonamiento y pensamiento crítico. Incremento del espíritu de equipo. Valoración de la diversidad. Relaciones solidarias. Desarrollo social. Aumento del autoestima. Capacidad de enfrentar la adversidad y las tensiones. ... Según el informe emitido por el Fondo Mundial Económico (Future of Jobs Report), habrá 10 habilidades que se necesitará desarrollar para adaptarse a la 4ª Revolución Industrial allá por el 2020: Resolución de problemas complejos. Pensamiento crítico. Creatividad. Dirección de equipos y personas. Coordinación con otros. Inteligencia Emocional. Elaboración de juicios y toma de decisiones. Servicio de orientación. Negociación. Pensamiento flexible. Todas estas habilidades se trabajan con la aplicación de esta metodología. ... ¿Qué podemos evaluar en una clase cooperativa? La evaluación en una clase cooperativa ha de estar centrada tanto en el alumnado a nivel individual como grupal. Evaluación del alumno: a nivel individual hay que evaluar los aprendizajes realizados mediante le producto. Por otro lado también hay que tener en cuenta la contribución al grupo. Evaluación del equipo-grupo: el docente ha de evaluar el funcionamiento del equipo y su desempeño cooperativo. Es tan importante evaluar el logro de los objetivos curriculares y el aprendizaje de los contenidos como el desarrollo de destrezas y habilidades para la cooperación."

Civilisation peaked in 1940 and will collapse by 2040: the data-based predictions of 1973 - 0 views

  •  
    "In 1973, near the height of the 'population bomb' panic, a computing programme called World1 offered up some predictions for the future. It anticipated a grim picture for humanity based on current trajectories. Tracing categories such as population, pollution and natural-resource usage, World1 calculated that, by 2040, human civilisation would collapse - a century after the best year to have been alive on the planet: 1940. This film was originally broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) News as part of a report on predictions for the coming decades made by cutting-edge computing technology and leading thinkers of the time. The second segment features interviews with members of the Club of Rome, an elite think tank composed of government officials, academics and business leaders focused on the future of humanity. Their view is a bit sunnier, anticipating a world where global governments are forced to cooperate to solve complex problems, people widen their cultural horizons and work fewer hours, and limited consumption - not wealth - becomes a mark of prestige. Viewed today, it makes for an engrossing artifact, raising far more questions than it answers about humanity's ability to effectively predict its future and correct its course."

Los seres humanos ingieren 250 gramos de microplásticos por año - 0 views

  •  
    "La crisis ambiental que generan los microplásticos afectan a los océanos y a su bidoversidad. Aunque el hombre no es un ser acuático, también lo sufre directamente. Un reporte internacional concluyó que, por semana, los seres humanos ingieren cinco gramos de plástico. Sí, es correcto: sería como masticar y tragar un trozo del tamaño de una tarjeta de crédito cada siete días."

Pervasive human-driven decline of life on Earth points to the need for transformative c... - 0 views

  •  
    "The time is now. For decades, scientists have been raising calls for societal changes that will reduce our impacts on nature. Though much conservation has occurred, our natural environment continues to decline under the weight of our consumption. Humanity depends directly on the output of nature; thus, this decline will affect us, just as it does the other species with which we share this world. Díaz et al. review the findings of the largest assessment of the state of nature conducted as of yet. They report that the state of nature, and the state of the equitable distribution of nature's support, is in serious decline. Only immediate transformation of global business-as-usual economies and operations will sustain nature as we know it, and us, into the future."

    "Farmer N'Da Alphonse grows cocoa and has never seen the finished product. "To be honest I do not know what they make of my beans, " says farmer N'Da Alphonse. "I've heard they're used as flavoring in cooking, but I've never seen it. I do not even know if it's true." vpro Metropolis was a video project by Dutch broadcast organisation vpro, that ran from 2008 to 2015. Metropolis is made by a global collective of young filmmakers and TV producers, reporting on remarkable stories from their own country/city. We made a trip around the globe on one single issue: from local beauty ideals to Elvis impersonators, to what's it like being gay, or an outcast or a dog in different cultures."
