Web 2.0 Science Tools By Laura Turner The following web2.0 sites would be useful for science educators at the high school and middle school level. Some would also be appropriate for higher elementary grade levels. There are many new ‘tools’ or websites that take advantage of the higher speed and bandwidth of today’s Internet. Web 1.0 tools/websites were text based and web2.0 tools/websites are designed for full-motion video, 3D animations and are generally interactive in some manner.

I migliori siti italiani che parlano d'innovazione didatticaProf Digitale Penso sia finalmente giunto il momento di mettere insieme in una lista, che spero mi aiuterete ad ampliare ed a tenere aggiornata con le vostre preziose segnalazioni, i migliori siti italiani che parlano d’innovazione didattica, di scuola 2.0, di rivoluzione digitale all’interno delle classi. L’articolo su quelli internazionali ha avuto un discreto successo, ma è ora di cominciare a guardare dentro i nostri confini, perché ci sono risorse meravigliose che aspettano solamente di essere scoperte e condivise. Nell’elenco troverete anche siti che non parlano esclusivamente di scuola, ma anche d’innovazione tout court, perché personalmente ritengo che aprirsi all’esterno, e non essere troppo autoreferenziali, sia un’ottimo modo per andare avanti nel nostro percorso professionale. Rinnovo il mio consiglio: salvate questi siti tra i preferiti o, meglio, sul vostro RSS reader, in modo da consultarli più o meno regolarmente, perché riescono a pubblicare anche diversi articoli al giorno.

L’Aula del XXI Secolo come Ambiente di Apprendimento La “Scuola” intesa come Spazio Fisico Nel dibattito sulla riforma della scuola viene spesso sottovalutata l’importanza della scuola intesa come “Habitat“, spazio fisico e architettonico in cui ha luogo il processo di insegnamento e apprendimento. L’idea che gli ambienti in cui si svolge l’attività educativa siano come lo Spazio newtoniano “vuoti contenitori” caratterizzati da uniformità e universale omologazione, ha radici antiche nella scuola italiana. Negli altri paesi monitorati dall’OECD, esistono architetti specializzati nello School Design, che lavorano insieme ai rappresentanti di docenti e studenti per creare gli spazi educativi. Ma è davvero irrilevante lo spazio nel quale si svolge la didattica? Può migliorare l’apprendimento scolastico in edifici cadenti e fuori norma? Quali Spazi per una didattica basata sulle Nuove tecnologie? Componenti della Classe del XXI secolo secondo Open Colleges Come deve essere l’aula per una didattica basata sulle TIC e sul WEB? E in Italia?
