"De afgelopen jaren werden veel onderzoeksprojecten uitgevoerd naar een zinvolle integratie van ICT-instrumenten in het onderwijs. Deze projecten mondden uit in publicaties over digitale didactiek waarin theoretische modellen en praktijkvoorbeelden werden geanalyseerd. Er is redelijk wat know-how over digitale didactiek voorhanden. Vreemd genoeg heeft tot op heden niemand een omvattende cursus over digitale didactiek uitgewerkt voor lerarenopleidingen in Vlaanderen.
Met dit project beogen we de ontwikkeling van een omvattende cursus over digitale didactiek. Deze cursus kan in elke lerarenopleiding in Vlaanderen (bij uitbereiding in Nederland) worden aangewend om de studenten/cursisten digitale didactische inzichten bij te brengen en ICT-instrumenten op een doordachte manier aan te wenden in een onderwijsleerproces.

Twitter is an online social networking tool in which users post 140 character updates of what is going on in their lives along with links to things they think are interesting, funny, or useful to their followers ("following" being essentially what "friending" is on other sites). People use twitter in many ways, some as a newsfeed by following prominent people or networks, some as a pseudo-chatroom by limiting their followers and whom they follow to close friends and family, and some as a microblog for updating people about the work they are doing and their personal lives.

It's good to be a kid these days. Or rather, it's better to be a teenager now than it was 30 years ago. That's the essential argument made in an infographic from Besteducationdegrees.com. Today's teens make more money in their crummy jobs, enjoy PlayStation instead of Coleco Vision, and have cell phones on which they listen to their music.
