"K-8 Intro to Computer Science is a free course that aims to demystify computer science and show K-8 students that it's fun, collaborative, and creative. The course is designed to motivate students and educators to continue learning computer science to improve real world relationships, connections, and life. Educators will foster an environment of communal learning that emphasizes risk-taking. This course will teach students about computer science, computational thinking, and programming. It will also teach that success does not come on the first try, just like the world's most difficult problems aren't solved on the first try. Challenge is good when it is supported by plans and tools that lead to success. This course will help students persevere in solving problems."

"Short panel presentation to Online Educa Berlin in which I reflect on the ways the agile process can go wrong when applied to learning design. Not that it always goes wrong, but this is the topic I drew in the panel. [Added to Youtube by Stephen Downes, Dec 27, 2015]"

"Introduction California school districts and County Offices of Education-collectively, Local Educational Agencies ("LEAs")-collect a vast amount of data in providing educational and related services. This data may include pupil records, medical records, financial information, and more. With the advent of individualized learning management systems, LEAs are sharing such data with third-party vendors more than ever before. There has also been a corresponding, and sometimes competing, increase in compliance measures to protect student data. This guide is intended to provide an overview and streamline some of the key laws governing student data privacy. Please note that the laws referenced herein may not be exhaustive. This guide contains information only and is not intended to provide legal advice, nor does it establish an attorney- client relationship. LEAs are encouraged to contact their legal counsel or member organization for any questions or clarifications concerning the content contained herein. This guide is also available electronically at www.f3law.com . This guide may be updated periodically; such updates may be found in the electronic version"

"Advances in technology make it possible for students to experience personalized learning anytime and anywhere. But this can only take place if our school systems have well designed networks that support the increased demands of student devices and 24/7/365 access and that remain current in the face of rapidly evolving technologies. In our first phase, with the generous support of Qualcomm, the SEND Initiative developed guidelines for network design and a checklist for district network planning. Currently, SEND II is building on that work in collaboration with leading technology partners: ENA, Filewave, Fortinet, Presidio, Juniper Networks, and SAFARI Montage, SEND II is developing next-level resources for building network architectures that can handle and evolve with new demands."

"Below you will find 50+ web tools you can use to create your own web-based story. They are grouped into categories of tool types, but you can also access a complete list of all tools. Each link points to a full entry on the tool that includes a description, links and embedded versions of the original Dominoe story, links to other stories created in the tool, and some more feedback that can help you decided if the tool might be of interest. People who join this wiki can contribute to the content on these pages (learn more...). Again, your mission is not to review or try every single one (that would be madness, I know), but pick one that sounds interesting and see if you can produce something. But before rummaging around the toolbox, have you done your prep work? Do you have your story idea or presentation concept outlined, developed? This should be on paper or in a document file or scribbled on the back of a napkin, but do not rely on making it up as you go! If not, go back 2 spaces and do this now. Next- do you have your media assets available, your images, video clips, audio files-- if not go find your media now."

"Come ci si iscrive? Basta inviare un'email all'indirizzo cmooc@iuline.it specificando Nome, Cognome, Città Ho inviato l'email, ora cosa devo fare? Niente. Da qui al 3 di aprile gli iscritti potranno ricevere delle email informative. Nelle fasi iniziali del percorso, ogni passo sarà accompagnato da un'email, poi si vedrà… Mi fa paura perchè non ne so niente di computer Questo corso, che non è un corso ma un per-corso, è pensato per chi non sa niente di computer o, forse è meglio dire, per chi crede di non sapere niente di computer, o di internet. Ma anche per chi crede di sapere cosa sia internet e invece si perde il meglio. La proposta è valida anche per chi come me ha già conseguito la laurea in "Metodi e Tecniche delle Relazioni Educative" presso la IUL? Verrebbero ugualmente attribuiti i crediti? Sì, la proposta è valida anche per chi ha già conseguito la laurea in "Metodi e Tecniche delle Relazioni Educative" presso la IUL. I CFU acquisiti potranno essere riconosciuti, in totalità o in parte, nel Master di I livello "Le nuove competenze digitali: open education, social e mobile learning" promosso da UNIFI e in master e corsi di perfezionamento affini, promossi dalla IUL.

Sarà possibile iscriversi anche dopo l'inizio (3 aprile), arrangiandosi per recuperare."
