Carlos Fosca's curator insight, January 9, 2016 6:55 AM

La idea de centros de aprendizaje como ambientes (físicos y/o virtuales) muy bien diseñados (compartiendo una variedad de recursos) donde se llevan a cabo una serie de actividades con la finalidad de lograr objetivos de aprendizaje y en especial las denominadas "21st Century Skills"  (capacidad de pensamiento crítico, capacidad para resolver problemas, para comunicar y sustentar ideas) debieran ser el nuevo concepto de diseño de aulas para colegios (y porque no para Universidades). No hay nada nuevo en el horizonte en torno a estos modelos educativos, el reto y lo innovador esta en como creamos un equipo humano (multisiciplinar) y el soporte tecnológico capaz de provocar la magia del aprendizaje en nuestros estudiantes, pues no se trata de " sólo entender el procesamiento que hace el cerebro de la realidad sino también ofrecer alternativas de facilitación para impactar, esa misma realidad de una manera emocionalmente memorable".(http://america-retail.com/agenda/the-magic-of-learning).

Le témoignage intéressant d'une enseignante qui, lors de la résolution d'une tâche complexe a laissé comme consigne à ses élèves de ne choisir d'utiliser leur appareil numérique ( portable, tablette , smartphone...) qu'en relation avec les tâches demandées et dans l'objectif d'apprendre...l'usage du BYOD lui a paru nécessaire dans la mesure où les élèves ont pu commenter les productions des autres et participer à des tâches collaboratives

This article provides a helpful criteria for teachers assessing whether their technology integration meets the needs and abilities of every student. This is very helpful information and I look forward to using this to measure the effectiveness of my tech assignments.
