Teach Your Monster to Read - Phonics and Reading on the App Store Global Forum : Quand les enseignants et les élèves inventent Du 11 au 14 mars, à Barcelone, le « Global Forum » rassemble, venus du monde entier, enseignants innovants, personnels de direction, industriels, politiques pour échanger expériences et réflexions autour du numérique éducatif. Selon Montserrat Gomendio Kindelan, Secrétaire d’Etat espagnole à l’Education et aux Universités, des méthodes d’enseignement dépassées expliquent les relativement faibles résultats des élèves européens dans les enquêtes comparatives internationales. Ils rencontrent notamment des difficultés à résoudre les problèmes, à débattre, à faire preuve d'esprit critique, d’innovation et de créativité. Sur tous ces aspects, le numérique présente des intérêts pédagogiques, pour peu que les enseignants acceptent de changer de posture et cherchent à stimuler les élèves dans les apprentissages : que s’inventent simultanément de nouvelles façons d’enseigner et d’apprendre.

Aurasma in the Music Classroom · just a little more Using Aurasma in the Music classroom Since the beginning of this year, Aurasma has been a big hit with my students; it’s easy to set up and it’s way cooler than last year’s QR codes. I’ve been using Aurasma in the Music Classroom to create opportunities for exploring those who write and perform music and to bring those musicians into my classroom in a very futuristic way. However, I’m most excited about how Aurasma will allow my students to creatively share their demonstrations of understanding and their musical compositions. It all started when I first saw this bulletin board on Mrs King’s Blog and decided to take a different twist on the idea. I mustache you a question… Do you REALLLLLY know these musicians? Last year, we mastered creating QR codes to bring student work to life, to provide links to websites, and to distribute various files for download, etc. More than just a QR code How the children use Aurasma in the music classroom.

Bring your classroom to life with Augmented Reality Augmented Reality (AR) has become a real "hot topic" in education recently. If you're not familiar with it, we describe AR as making a static image come to life - just like the posters from Harry Potter. It might sound crazy, but it really exists. And the more and more mainstream that AR becomes, the more we see it seeping into the classroom. But just like any tool, we have to be careful of not just consuming a product. Here's our recommendations for using inside your classroom. There's a lot of great educational AR products out there. If AR is to reach its fullest potential in education, we believe you have to put the tech in the kid's hands and allow them to create their own AR. Here are a few successful examples of students and teachers using Aurasma to create meaningful learning experiences: - taking a photo of a book cover and creating a video of a student giving a book review. - creating tutorial videos that are attached to homework that is being sent home.
