Utiliser un réseau social en classe: les bonnes questions à se poser avant de se lancer Quelles questions se poser avant de lancer sa classe sur un réseau social? Je reprends dans ce prezi le billet que j’avais écrit ici il y a un an. Prezi qui servira de base à la formation des nouveaux enseignants que j’assurerai pour l’académie de Poitiers en mars. " Vous voulez introduire les réseaux sociaux dans votre pédagogie? Voici quelques conseils et pistes de réflexion avant de se lancer: Je prends en exemple dans cette fiche pratique le réseau social Twitter mais c’est adaptable à d’autres comme Facebook. Avant de commencer : je recommande de l’utiliser personnellement pour bien le maîtriser. Tweeter en classe mais pour quoi faire ? On n’entre pas avec sa classe en réseau social comme on entrerait n’importe où. B. L’usage peut se restreindre uniquement sur le temps de classe proprement dit. Mais il est évident que l’utilisation du web 2.0 décloisonne la classe: l’enseignant entre facilement en communication et interaction avec ses élèves en dehors du temps de classe. C. D. En classe:

The 21st century pedagogy teachers should be aware of Interpersonal learning , personalized learning, second life learning , 3d learning, collaborative learning and virtual learning , these are just some of the few buzz words you would be be reading so often in today’s educational literature.

Study: iPad Apps Improve Learning First of its kind evidence shows that an iPad learning app can measurably deliver educational value. I’ve tested, rated, tried out, and put tons of educational iPad apps through their paces. Some are worthwhile, some are not worth your time. That’s why I was excited to read about a new study that attempted to figure out the actual effectiveness of iPad apps in learning. In a landmark study, a USC professor studied 122 fifth-graders from two schools and four math classes to assess the effectiveness of an iPad app for improving students’ fractions knowledge and attitudes. The study is the first to document learning and motivation gains achieved through iPad game play. Education researcher Michelle Riconscente (Los Angeles) designed and constructed the study, which was funded by a grant from the Noyce Foundation and Stanford StartX company, Motion Math . • 5th graders fractions test scores improved 15% after playing Motion Math, for 20 minutes over 5 days.

Teaching with Google+ Stream This is like Facebook's News Feed, where the sharing happens. Updates, links and other media from the people you follow will show up here. Posts aren't "hidden," but are "muted."Circles This was a defining feature for Google+ when it was released -- a selling point that allows users to add people to different "circles" as a way of separating content, updates and the general mixing of different areas of your life. Whereas Facebook lumps everyone together in a single feed, Google+ streams allow you far more flexibility. Users are currently split regarding how well this works in application. Most of the differences between Google+ and Facebook are a matter of branding: one company's "follow" is another company's "Add to Circles." Beginning Classroom Integration Of course, it is far more than a Facebook clone. 1) Basic: Communication The most basic way Google+ can function in your classroom is as an avenue of communication. 2) Intermediate: Project Management Tips Closing Tips

Flipped Classroom A New Learning Revolution There has been a growing buzz around a recently coined phrase " Flipped Classroom". This term starts to take root in education as more and more educators are discovering it. So what is this all about and what are its advantages in learning and teaching? ( Awesome Infographic included below ) Flipped Classroom is an inverted method of instruction where teaching and learning take place online outside of the class while homework is done in the classroom. Flipped Classroom shifts the learning responsibility and ownership from the teacher's hands into the students'. Flipped Classroom depends a lot on educational technology and web 2.0 tools such as podcasting and screencasting applications. "In most Flipped Classrooms, there is an active and intentional transfer of some of the information delivery to outside of the classroom with the goal of freeing up time to make better use of the face-to-face interaction in school.

Social media for trainers: think differently! I did a workshop last Friday on the conference 'Trends voor Trainers'. The topic was: social media as learning instrument.

I forgot my adaptor (really stupid of me) and felt very disorganised working on various different laptops and computers. Skype for instance looks so differently on a Windows computer. I started with a line up: from no engagement with social media to intensive engagement. Here's the presentation that followed.
