    Espaço educativo da NASA, onde se encontram aplicativos como: ----------------------- WORLD WIND - World Wind lets you zoom from satellite altitude into any place on Earth. Leveraging Landsat satellite imagery and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission data, World Wind lets you experience Earth terrain in visually rich 3D, just as if you were really there. ------------------------- NASA SVS (Scientific Visualization Studio) has a collection of visually intense animations on a global scale as well as a variety of samples up close. These animations are accessable via any browser capable of using the WMS standard. ------------------------------- MATH TRAX - bridges the visual divide when it comes to modeling graphs ----------------------- What's the Difference is a highly accessible and a simple to use "compare and contrast" tool for students. It is easily customizable to go well beyond the included module that covers the Solar System. "Solar System Explorer" covers every planet in depth with important facts such as atmosphere, composition, diameter, distance to sun, gravity strength, and simulated views of the surface. --------------------- Virtual Lab completely emulates a scanning electron microscope and allows any user to zoom and focus into a variety of built-in microscopic samples. It also comes with a set of educational materials such as a demo on how a SEM works and movies of the real thing in action.

Amplified Organization - 2020 Forecast: Creating the Future of Learning - 0 views

  • Digital natives and technologies of cooperation are combining to create a generation of amplified individuals. These organizational “superheroes” will remake organizational models through their highly social, collective, improvisational practices and their augmented human capacities. These new models will thrive in a world of social networks; information proliferation, transparency, and saturation; and rapid change. As digital natives enter learning professions, and as existing educators and students become amplified, their extended human capacities will challenge traditional ways of organizing learning and will amplify schools, districts, and other learning organizations. 
  •  These individuals are highly social, collective, improvisational and augmented. 
  • Together, these attributes enable several amplified organizational practices - open leadership and sociability, beta building, collective sensemaking, and transliteracy - that support more flexible responses to change and stimulate innovation

  • In many ways, amplified individuals, organizations and their practices are enabling pedagogies born in the early 20th century that have not been able to find expression in the current educational system.
  • Many educators venturing into the amplified world find that modes of learning using social and collaborative platforms are downright inspiring - encouraging the reasons that they chose to teach.
  • However, education decision-makers must work to close not just the digital divide - access and familiarity with digital technologies - but also the participation gap - comfort engaging in a culture of contribution, connectivity, sharing, and massive collaboration.
  • Open collaborative platforms enable distributed teams and loosely connected networks to self organize and form ad hoc structures to solve problems and implement strategies.  By circulating resources openly and broadly through social networks, information tends to find the right people at the right place at the right time that allows ad hoc leaders to emerge and apply relevant expertise more quickly.  Such an open, flexible structure facilitates collective sensemaking - a practice by which knowledge and expertise that may not have been visible can rise in response to critical issues. Tools ranging from Plazes (a system that lets your social contacts know where you are, what you’re doing and when) to Moodle (an open source courseware management system) allow knowledge workers, educators, learners to form their own smart mobs and self-led teams.  The transparency of these systems also helps support a culture of beta building - rapid innovation, in which participants of a social network, distributed team, or smart mob can see information, offer critique, and help iterate solutions and strategies.  Amplified organizations will be transliterate - capable of communicating across multiple media in ways that use specific media platforms and non mediated, face-to-face interactions to develop effective and creative messages.

'The Objective of Education Is Learning, Not Teaching' - Knowledge@Wharton - 0 views

  •  
    In their book, Turning Learning Right Side Up: Putting Education Back on Track, authors Russell L. Ackoff and Daniel Greenberg point out that today's education system is seriously flawed -- it focuses on teaching rather than learning. "Why should children -- or adults -- be asked to do something computers and related equipment can do much better than they can?" the authors ask in the following excerpt from the book. "Why doesn't education focus on what humans can do better than the machines and instruments they create?"

TEDxNYed: This is bullshit « BuzzMachine - 0 views

  • What does this remind of us of? The classroom, of course, and the entire structure of an educational system built for the industrial age, turning out students all the same, convincing them that there is one right answer
  • But that is what education and media do: they validate.
  • Do what you do best and link to the rest.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • We tell them our answers before they’ve asked the questions. We drill them and test them and tell them they’ve failed if they don’t regurgitate back our lectures as lessons learned. That is a system built for the industrial age, for the assembly line, stamping out everything the same: students as widgets, all the same.
  • Google, he said, is looking for “non-routine problem-solving skills.”
  • “In the real world,” he said, “the tests are all open book, and your success is inexorably determined by the lessons you glean glean from the free market.”
  • We must stop our culture of standardized testing and standardized teaching
  • We must stop looking at education as a product – in which we turn out every student giving the same answer – to a process, in which every student looks for new answers. Life is a beta.
  • The school becomes not a factory but an incubator.

BBC NEWS | Technology | Intel cites US education 'crisis' - 0 views

  • "Good teachers are the magic in the classroom. "Personal computers aren't magic, they are just a tool. What you need to make the educational process work is a good teacher who is knowledgeable in the subject and can get kids excited."

      If so, teacher work must be dignified by the government leaders! I don't think they support and recognize the importance of the educators in our society. Teachers must be well paid, for example...

      Os professores precisam de ser mais apoiados e acarinhados pela sociedade. O reconhecimento do valor dos docentes para o desenvolvimento da economia deve ser uma prioridade.
  • "Nations are as strong as their educational systems. "The rest of the emerging world recognises this is the key to staying competitive." He went on: "It's time our political leaders acknowledged that and declare there is a crisis and do something about it."

Do Learning Management Systems (LMSs) help or hinder? - 0 views

  • Judy has it exactly right--we have to rethink what we do when we move a course online. When radio first moved to television, TV shows were merely radio broadcasts with motion pictures. It took a while for TV to figure out what it did best. It's going to take us some time as well.

      Completamente de acordo! Ainda teremos de aprender exactamente qual a "mais-valia" dos novos meios. Até agora, parece-me que temos estado a transportar material 1.0 para um mundo 2.0. O meio mudou mas o paradigma manteve-se...
  • Are LMSs helping to improve education or are the current offerings so inflexible that it actually hinders teaching? What are people doing with LMSs that they can't do in an in-person classroom?
