CLASIFICACION INTERNACIONAL NORMALIZADA DE LA EDUCACION Bloomin' Apps This page gathers all of the Bloomin' Apps projects in one place.Each image has clickable hotspots and includes suggestions for iPad, Android, Google and online tools and applications to support each of the levels of Bloom's Revised Taxonomy.I have created a page to allow you to share your favorite online tool, iOS, or Android app with others. Cogs of the Cognitive Processes I began to think about the triangular shape of Bloom's Taxonomy and realized I thought of it a bit differently.Since the cognitive processes are meant to be used when necessary, and any learner goes in and out of the each level as they acquire new content and turn it into knowledge, I created a different type of image that showcased my thoughts about Bloom's more meaningfully.Here is my visual which showcases the interlocking nature of the cognitive processes or, simply, the "Cogs of the Cognitive Processes".

Simon Hooper College of Education University of Minnesota and Lloyd P. Classroom teaching is a demanding job. It is easy to understand how a teacher might become frustrated and disillusioned. It is important to note that the focus in this chapter is on educational technology as compared to technology in education. There are four purposes to this chapter. A Model of Technology Adoption in the Classroom Educational technology is often considered, erroneously, as synonymous with instructional innovation. Although education has witnessed a multitude of both technology and innovation over the past 50 years (Reiser, 1987), the educational system has scarcely changed during that time. There have been many attempts to understand patterns of adoption in education (Dalton, 1989; Dwyer, Ringstaff, & Sandholtz, 1991). Figure 1.

Aprendizaje Invisible Les problèmes des smartphones passés au crible Microphone, batterie… Le smartphone n’est pas encore parfait. Tour d’horizon des principaux problèmes. Si les tests des smartphones sont nombreux sur le Web, il est plus difficile de trouver des informations sur les causes des retours au SAV. En effet, en dehors du célèbre Antennagate de Apple lors du lancement de l’iPhone 4, les problèmes Microphone, batterie… Le smartphone n’est pas encore parfait. Si les tests des smartphones sont nombreux sur le Web, il est plus difficile de trouver des informations sur les causes des retours au SAV. Le blog FixYa nous apporte des éléments de réponse avec une étude menée sur les têtes d’affiche des principaux constructeurs. Commençons avec l’iPhone 4s où la batterie concentre près de la moitié des problèmes rencontrés (45%); rappelons que le smartphone de la firme de Cupertino a toujours fait le choix d’une batterie non amovible, une caractéristique que l’on retrouve également sur le HTC One X.

Australian Curriculum There is great congruence between global education and the Australian Curriculum. Goals Global education aims to develop global citizens through promotion of open mindedness and a willingness to take action for change, respecting and valuing diversity, and being active in the development of a peaceful, just and sustainable world. It has much in common with the Melbourne Declaration on Education Goals for Young Australians (2008), which promotes equity and excellence, development of successful learners, confident and creative individuals and active and informed citizens. Approach Global education promotes flexible learning, which empowers students to learn about the world, develop values around a positive sense of self, appreciation of cultural diversity, passion for social justice and human rights and building sustainable futures. Skills Critical and creative thinking Ethical behaviour Personal and social competence Intercultural understanding. Perspectives
ICT Education on the verge of collapse? Bill Mitchell is Director of the Academy of Computing at the BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT). Applications to Computer Science courses in UK universities have collapsed by 60% since 2000, yet the demand for software professionals across the EU has grown by around 50% in the same period. The value added to the EU economy directly from IT products and services is around £480bn each year. Computing is a vital part of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Computing is on the verge of collapse in the English state-funded school system. Teaching computing, or just software? Students are not taught how computers work and are denied the opportunity to be creative through inspiring computing activities. We must educate our children so that by the time they become adults they are capable of making a valuable contribution to our digital society and economy. Teacher shortage and curriculum must be addressed Forthcoming report to show the way forward
Conectivismo - Nuevas perspectivas sobre el aprendizaje, enseñanza y Tecnología Clarissa Davis, Earl Edmunds, Vivian Kelly-Bateman Department of Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology, University of Georgia Review of Connectivism Introduction Just like anything else that involves human experience or interaction, the act of learning does not happen in a vacuum. If you would like a quick introduction to connectionism, try looking at networked student in plain English video. Half-Life of Knowledge New technology forces the 21st century learner to process and apply information in a very different way and at a very different pace from any other time in history. Taking into account the ideas presented in the video, how is the 21st century learner supposed to assimilate all this information, and make valuable use of it? Components of Connectivism Chaos Theory Importance of Networks According to Siemens, “considering technology and meaning-making as learning activities begins to move learning into the digital age” (2005, para. 15).
