"A review of free technology resources and how teachers can use them. Ideas for technology integration in education."

Now, the year 2010 has heralded lots of promises in the social web, incorporating new technologies such as Cloud Computing, and the entrant positioning of HTML5 in the core web media technology...

"This article defines 'community' for educators and proceed to examine fundamental issues around new theories and practice for constructing learning communities. Our concept of community asks the reader not to consider the shape of institutions or "schools" that exist today, but to ponder some possible shapes for (virtual) learning communities that could exist tomorrow. Second, we discuss some foundational considerations from theoreticians preparing us to build these communities with technological support. Practical issues around building new communities are illustrated with examples of virtual community types - including examples of technologically supported learning strategies that fall far short of our definition of virtual learning communities. Finally, some tactics for building robust learning communities are offered."

Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is a pedagogical approach wherein learning takes place via social interaction using a computer or through the Internet. This kind of learning is characterized by the sharing and construction of knowledge among participants using technology as their primary means of communication or as a common resource.[1] CSCL can be implemented in online and classroom learning environments and can take place synchronously or asynchronously.

A successful educational technology program should be optimized and affordable and should be developed keeping in view the future needs of modern day students.

"Parents who restrict their children's use of new media technologies may be acting counterproductively in the long run, particularly if they invoke afterschool homework time as the reason. Their children's scholastic achievements at college lag behind the academic performance of same-age peers, a University of Zurich study shows."

In the final weeks of 2017 a new Science & Technology Curriculum for Kindergarten to Year Six slipped into the schools of New South Wales. What does this new curriculum bring and what does it reveal about the nature of learning as we approach the year 2020?

"Despite the vast array of options when it comes to EdTech, walking around exhibitions you can't help but notice that the technology is converging, and that one black screen looks like all the other black screens, the 'solutions' are solving the same things and the high prices, alas, are also ubiquitous. But what impact is this having on learning? Few educators truly use the full capabilities of the tech available to them, due to a lack of time, training, or ideas for how it can be deployed, and some teachers can allow the technology to take precedence over pedagogy and learning."

The study in the field of science and technology through online medium promises a better career prospects to the students. Several UK Universities provide such courses in the field of science and technology, accessing which opens the floodgates for a bright future ahead.

"I've started this article with quite a bold statement, but it's a conclusion that I have been coming too over the course of quite a few years now. I should really put this into context though, as most of the teacher training I do deals with pedagogical training for the use of technology and is most often delivered during intensive face to face sessions, usually with groups of teachers working in a computer lab"

I'd like to share a couple of videos with you that I have used recently in the courses I teach. I find these videos particularly interesting because they show such contrasting approaches to learning and in particular - for want of a better word - e-learning.
