Collaborative case studies of teaching and learning with 'interactive' technologies in the secondary classroom

"O conhecimento constrói-se partilhando", poderia bem ser o slogan do Projecto Interact que, desde a sua génese, se tem preocupado em promover junto das escolas e professores esta necessidade de partilhar o que conhecemos e sabemos. Neste percurso, alunos, professores, pais e encarregados de educação envolvem-se nesse desejo de fazer mais e melhor pelo ensino, dando um novo fulgor ao acto de aprendizagem.

Alan November, an international leader in education technology, joins us for a three-part series covering student-centered learning, dynamic learning communities and 21st Century learning environments. In part one of this series, Alan explores new and emerging trends in technology integration, and discusses the kinds of information and social tools that support student-centered learning. In part two, host Sonny Magana and Alan November discuss the importance of student ownership in the learning process and the need for educational institutions to implement both technology and the correct mindset in order to make it become a reality. The series wraps up with a lively discussion in part three, featuring key components from Alan November's latest book, "Web Literacy for Educators."

Promethean, compañía líder especializada en aprendizaje interactivo, ha auspiciado el informe "Aprender sin Tiza: Uso de las Tecnologías Interactivas en el Aula", en el que se analiza el grado de penetración de las TICs en las escuelas españolas, no sólo en términos cuantitativos, sino en relación con los centros educativos europeos. El trabajo está basado en decenas de testimonios personales de expertos en educación, desde profesores habituados al uso de nuevas tecnologías en el aula hasta representantes políticos o institucionales. Todos ellos están de acuerdo en asegurar que la revolución que están imponiendo las TICs debe concretarse en que se dote al alumno de las competencias necesarias y suficientes para que, por sí mismo y a lo largo de su vida, sea capaz de buscar, obtener, procesar y transmitir información para convertirla en conocimiento. El informe, prologado por Ana García Huerta, periodista experta en Sociedad de la Información, recalca que la incorporación de las TICs en la escuela es inevitable e ineludible: vivimos sumergidos en la Sociedad de la Información y es absolutamente imprescindible que los estudiantes aprendan a moverse en el nuevo entorno. Ahora bien, para ello, "deben cambiar varios aspectos en múltiples dimensiones: la escuela misma, los métodos de evaluación, los contenidos, los profesores, los estudiantes e incluso la actitud de los padres", apunta.
