Sajan George TedX Talk about the future of education. Sajan is the Founder & CEO of Matchbook Learning, a national non-profit school turnaround management organization that has designed and implemented a unique blended model of school, the only one of its kind targeting turnaround (i.e. bottom 5%) public schools that blends face-to-face and virtual instruction.

NMC Horizon 2016 report is up! According to the report, you can see the different types of tools or platforms to be adopted with their respective timespans. BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is already here, although cited as "to be adopted in one year or less". The future seems to lead towards augmented reality and robotics.

In this video, faculty members answer the question how education will be at 2050.

In this interview Dr. Punya Mishra is talking about TPACK. In the interview, Dr. Mishra discusses the TPACK Model that he and Dr. Matthew Koelher developed. He begins the interview with an overview of the model. Dr. Mishra discusses how the model can shape educational technology integration in teacher education, K-12, and in professional development. He talks about where he sees the future development of TPACK going. The interview ends with advice he has regarding the implementation of the TPACK model in teaching and learning.

The interview about TPACK with Mishra who is one of the person who claimed TPACK.

Selçuk this video explains TPACK in a simple and clear way, thanks.

It is really impressive TPACK model example that can help students learning geography. By teacher's high CK, students learn similarity and differences between continents and countries. By teacher's high PK, students are seperated groups and they are leaded in order to develop good questions. Also, by teacher's high TK, students are connected to real students in different countries in real time via using techology, so all of the students work collaboratively.

Büşra, I really love it <3 And also ıt is so funny practice to use TPACK model.

I really liked it. It is fun for students but there is more than that I believe. Because in the process they are comparing other students' clues with what they know, reviewing high amount of their information. For example students at the other side of the skype call knew their friends were not in finland, estonia, latvia, belarus, ukraine, etc (neighbors of russia). But still I think they -maybe implicitly- learnt these countries are russia's neighbors. Still, I would love to examine their geography scores to be sure about this method's efficiency.

This is a very short article on TPACK by its founders which explain the theory and its basic concepts and implications.

This video includes TPACK analysis of two educational applications for primary schools.

A game engaging the players into TPACK by doing.  It seems like I know this game before but how? :)

This is good an example game to comprehend TPACK :)

The combination of technology, pedagogy and content knowledge is represented well in this video. It seems very informative and has simple explanation. Also, there are good examples for TPACK model which also aims students work collaboratively.

I hope this is not too basic but I was impressed and surprised to see this area has its own journal. Journal has founded in 2006 and has 43 issues so far, holding more than 200 articles. Journal is peer reviewed and has a high impact factor of 2.692 putting it the 2nd place among educational research journals. I think this success also shows the potentials of the area.

This video gives information about how teachers are using technology to engage students in collaborative learning.

Ηow educators can enhance student collaboration taking advantage of a computer supported collaborative learning environment?

Coursera is one of the best platforms for computer supported collaborative learning. There are numerous classes from the top universities in the world, and the expansion of these classes are run through discussions in class forums. Lots of people get together to create projects and share them with their peers.

Although online courses has some disadvantages, that platform is beyond online courses I think because it allow followers interaction instead of just slides or videos. Also I do not remember the exact details but when that platform was founded, the demand for one course was over the expected and the system was broken. Then, the same lesson began to be given as formal education and at all users who completed the course with 100 points are the ones who take the course online.

Coursera was suggested me to improve my academic speaking skills by my adviser so I have a coursera account :) There are presentations, online courses, online exams and homework etc. Also, you can get a certificate that is valid international after completing the course successfully. Unfortunately, I did not benefit from it because the price of the course was too high, therefore I gave up the course.

By this classroom, students work and learn naturally by communicating with each other and with the teacher actively in real time. Interactive tablets, computers and the board provide students work with groups using technology, while natural learning happens.

summerize where the technology will be in 10 years in schools. But what can we say about our schools? Even people are paying big amount of money for private schools, they still not have such a technology in their class. Technology getting cheaper and cheaper everyday but still I wonder how many years we need to wait to see these kind of technlogies in our school?

This is great example to CSCL but when I thought about Kutay's question according to our country; my answer get upset me :/ Because while we cannot use the smartboards at our clasroom, that kind of usage is just a dream :/

Some new features and apps are getting more popular in UK for collaborative platforms. This news give some examples and also some usage styles and benefits of these apps for the individualized and group works.

That tool (wepresent) is efficient but I think it may not be as user-friendly as like told at the article. Because there will be online platform that you can create your slide and share with your class and it can be more basic inspite of some less possibility.

Although it is a kind of advertisement, I like this smart technology products and the idea of smart classroom. Small groups can be engaged very easily for collaborative activities and they can touch the multi touch screen at the same time. Also, teacher can connect it to smart table with a software.

I think it is basic but very effective application. Especially it is fun and when thinking the usage of it is for children, it is a great advantage.

Welcome to the Learning by Design Project website. (If you are looking for the Learning by Design software application, you'll find it here.) This site is a resource for participants in the Learning by Design project, or for those who want to find out more about the project.

This is a website focuses on mainly contemporary styles of learning and teaching. One of its focus is on learning by design alongside some others. There is a lot of content: knowledge on LBD or its pedagogy. They also offer online courses, some suggestions for teachers who want to utilize LBD in their classes and ways to evaluate learners' knowledge.

It's a really informative video which explains project based learning. I liked its clear guiding questions to make students reach the solution just like experts.

Tynker is the English online platform where the students (children) are taught programming. The aim of the platform is to provide a solid infrastructure for STEM to prepare for the 21st century. Its slogan is "the easiest way to learn programming at school" and more than 20,000 schools use this program. It also include design base learning. I think learning programming at early ages is very important for children to develop their critical and algorithmic thinking skills. This platform facilitates both teachers' work and makes it fun for children.

I really like the program. Even I can use it to learn the basic things from this program. Thanks for the share!
