Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age
Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age December 12, 2004 George Siemens Update (April 5, 2005): I've added a website to explore this concept at www.connectivism.ca Introduction Behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism are the three broad learning theories most often utilized in the creation of instructional environments. Learners as little as forty years ago would complete the required schooling and enter a career that would often last a lifetime. “One of the most persuasive factors is the shrinking half-life of knowledge. Some significant trends in learning: Many learners will move into a variety of different, possibly unrelated fields over the course of their lifetime. Background Driscoll (2000) defines learning as “a persisting change in human performance or performance potential…[which] must come about as a result of the learner’s experience and interaction with the world” (p.11). Driscoll (2000, p14-17) explores some of the complexities of defining learning. Conclusion:

EDpuzzle y dale la vuelta a tu clase!
Seguro que a todos nos suena eso de "Flipped classroom" o el aula al revés. Consiste en dejar las clases magistrales para casa y que el alumno participe de manera activa en el aula. Esta metodología es la que deberíamos utilizar en el desarrollo de un aprendizaje por proyectos, o basado en problemas, donde el trabajo práctico, las consultas, la investigación, la realización del producto final y la colaboración en grupo debe realizarse dentro del aula. Entonces... ¿cuándo les explico ese nuevo concepto, o esa teoría, o de dónde sale esta fórmula?... Bueno, la solución es darle la vuelta a la clase y proporcionarles esas explicaciones en vídeo que puedan ver en casa de manera individual. Hay muchos vídeos que nos gustan, por su calidad de imagen, por su contenido, pero que no nos sirven porque son demasiado largos, o bien están en otro idioma, o quizá nosotros lo explicaríamos de otra manera... Con EDpuzzle podemos crear nuestras clases y asignar los vídeos que grabemos a nuestros alumnos.
New te reo Maori App set to launch - TangataWhenua.com
Ratings12345 A new mobile phone application developed by Victoria University’s Faculty of Education, Te Kura Maori, looks set to change the way New Zealanders learn te reo Maori. The ‘Kura App’ includes a range of games modules that allow users to improve their knowledge and understanding of the Maori language. “There didn’t seem to be any applications that catered to people with some degree of proficiency in te reo. Mrs McKenzie says the team spent most of last year working with local app developers to create the concept. “Our primary audience is the teachers we work with at Kura Kaupapa (language immersion schools) and in the field, but we believe everyone should be able to learn te reo Maori, so we’ve decided to make it publicly available and free to download.” Mrs McKenzie says before users access the modules and games, they can create an Avatar, or alter ego, which involves choosing their hair, eyes, nose, mouth, clothes and even accessories.
8 Crucial Resources For Flipped Classrooms
Have you “flipped” yet? My colleagues have this week; it’s PSSA week in Pennsylvania (PSSAs are standardized tests.). That’s not the flipped I meant, however. YouTube This might be the most popular tool teachers have used for flipped instruction. You don’t have to establish a class list to allow for student discussion. Other services, such as those that approximate a LMS, require a lot of preparation before a teacher can use it. You can edit the video online (somewhat). Evernote Tutorial as a Cartoon Trim and stabilize Swap audio tracks Change the look of the video (for instance, make it look like a cartoon) Add annotations Add captions Download the new version of the video for offline use It’s easy to share with colleagues, friends, and professional development organizations. I would assume that teachers might want to share their videos with other teachers or use them when they present at professional development conferences.

Les outils qui rendent possible la classe inversée
La notion de classe inversée tourne beaucoup autour de la vidéo. Mais pourquoi? Selon Caroline Hétu et David Chartrand, enseignants, elle constitue un outil pédagogique très puissant, permettant « d’expliquer des notions, substituer une partie du cours et donner des instructions claires, autant en classe qu’à la maison ou à l’étranger ». De plus, elle favorise l’autonomie des jeunes en leur permettant d’apprendre à leur rythme, laissant par le fait même plus de temps à l’enseignant pour aider les autres. 1. Introduction à l’infonuagique Quiconque a déjà travaillé avec la vidéo sait à quel point ce média est « lourd » côté informatique. Le fait de déposer un fichier (dans ce cas-ci, un fichier vidéo) sur un service en ligne pour y avoir accès de partout s’appelle l’infonuagique, ou l’informatique en nuage. Il existe d’autres applications de l’infonuagique. 2. Pour la création de capsules vidéo originales, il y a différentes façons de procéder. 3. Khan Academy Sophia D’autres à considérer 4.
