Online Pedagogy
09/02/2010
here I am again. I admire all my colleagues who work hard day and night. I am trying to keep the pace but it is hard. Interrupted by my responsibilities at school and by my private life (strange, isn’t it?), I miss to post interesting ideas on the subject I am interested in.
This video is very true. It represents the third online pedagogy principle presented by Peltz. Teacher must be virtually present all the time.
Engagement v. Empowerment – once again
05/01/2010
I have to start this blog post. It is a necessary condition to end it, isn’t it?
Chris Lehman brings so many interesting, not to say provocative thoughts. I feel he is right but one has to elaborate them. Engagement, empowerment, progressive pedagogy, School 2.0, Technology is like oxygen …
I strongly recommend this blog, Chris’s presentation on Slideshare.
Enjoy in sharing his passion.
This list is categorized in the following groups:

Amazing Presentations
31/12/2009
It was a real pleasure to discover the Chris Lehman’s presentations on Slide share. After long months, even years, of digging the Net, suddenly I hit the gold mine. I opened the School 2.0 and immersed myself in it. It was an amazing experience. I felt as if I didn’t have any idea what followed on the next slide and, at the same time, I intuitively knew what was coming.
First of all, Chris suggests that (Progressive!) Pedagogy means A LOT. Then, if we have Web 2.0, it does not necessary mean that we have School 2.0 and Teacher 2.0 …
Check the Educon22. It is to far for me, unfortunately. And also
What we need is a lead

“Education systems need to be transformed, to better meet the needs of businesses and society, and to empower learners to thrive in the 21st Century.
A new approach has been proposed – Education 3.0.”
Committed to structural change of the educational system. Many teachers instinctively feel that we need a three in one approach (TPACK). “The Global Education Leaders’ Program (GELP) is an opportunity for education system leaders to join a coalition of world-class academics, policy-makers and practitioners who recognise the urgent need for change in current education systems.”
Please review the GELP
Web 4.0!
24/12/2009
Oh, my God! Why am I so surprised?! Isn’t it expected? Nova made an excellent presentation on the future of the Web.
What can we, as educators, do? What about the curriculum we are supposed to follow? Instead of trying to implement such ideas, it seems we are still copying with the basic concepts such as TAPCK . The life is going on.
Or …
Should we start thinking how we are going to teach the the world to machines not to students?
Effective Technology Integration
23/12/2009
Let’s try to list the assumptions for the effective technology integration.
1. students do must of the work. Or …
Let’s the machine do the most of the work.
2. striving for presence (frequent interaction and feedback).
3. (inter) active engagement
4. group participation
5. connection to real world experts
…
This seems to be a basis for a new online pedagogy. Think about the concept TAPCK
What are we or what are we going to be?

“A knowmad is what I term a nomadic knowledge worker –that is, a creative, imaginative, and innovative person who can work with almost anybody, anytime, and anywhere.”
Exactly, is it already true that for a knowledge worker a coffee shop is an office like any other place in the world or it is yet to become the truth? Not yet, I guess. We are still in the 2.0. not only technology wise but still knowledge wise.
Let’ s discuss it.
WEB 3.0 The Future of Education
21/12/2009
“This week, Education Futures presents a series on Education 3.0. For a little background on this new paradigm of human capital development, you may wish to start with this chart on Education 3.0, or view this presentation on SlideShare.”
Very interesting issue. Are we approaching the whole new era? Probably yes, although the intelectual structures are still solid to resist the incoming changes. Web 3.0 schools only on CLICK, and no on BRICK.
“the importance of recognizing that no one individual is able to master a discipline. We all have gaps in our knowledge. To address this reality, we first need a shift in our mindsets. Or perhaps a more accurate concept – we need to let go of the notion that we can know a field in its entirety. All knowledge is in the connections – how we’ve connected concepts and how we are connected to other people and sources of information. To know is to be connected.”

The idea is certainly not new but the context definitely is. Should one think about the Web 3.0?
