"The answer to empowering our learners by giving them purpose and inspiring their passion may be right under our noses. In play, one group of children may use dozens of LEGO pieces to recreate the excavator they found fascinating on their neighborhood walk, while another group of students uses Minecraft to create a fireworks display in honor of the Chinese New Year. Taken together, students learn the science and engineering behind simple machines or the importance of cultural practices in social studies, while learning how to collaborate with others and create something better together. In each instance, students use elements of design thinking to cocreate and problem solve, engaging in thoughtful dialogue and continuous iteration. This play can be made into so much more if educators guide students by demonstrating the utility of the content they're learning and inviting students into the process of meaning making."

La mejor tecnología y su influencia en el futuro de la educación

Nowadays technology is a great tool that helps us in our life, in our work, in our study, etc. The internet is part of our lives and is very beneficial to us. As future teachers, we must show and tell our students all the benefits and advantages that the internet brings to our lives, but we must also make them aware that this if not used in a correct way can be dangerous for them. It is important to read and take into account these three ways to protect our students from the dangers of technology, because they often do not think about the consequences that can bring to their lives the content that they upload to the internet. We need to make sure that our students get the most out of technology.

Analysis of more than 1,000 learning studies by the department of education show blended learning environments have the greatest impact in improving student achievement. We cover three main types of blended learning models; traditional, hybrid and flipped. We also tackle five common misconceptions about blended learning: http://tiny.cc/BlendedLearningPotential

“...let’s not waste new beginnings.” R - Overall, the OECD has a good reputation of being reliable and showing accurate facts. The author, Marie-Hélène Doumet, also doesn’t seem to have a troubling reputation. A - This article, published by the OECD, is heavily based on statistics and their own percentages. Because of this, the author could simply just be reporting about an issue and did not experience anything first hand. V - At the end of the day, this author will be paid by her boss no matter what. Thus, there is vested interest because the writer will be receiving a form of payment by writing and publishing this article. E - Marie-Hélène Doumet is the Senior Analyst and the OECD Directorate for Education and Skills. Because this article is mostly made up of statistics and percentages, her being the Senior Analyst makes her qualified to write an article written like this one. N - I think Doumet was successfully able to remain neutral and explicitly just state facts and logical conclusions from those facts. Some of the topics, such as women being more likely to complete tertiary education than men, could be perceived as biased since she herself is a woman, but she quickly stated facts and showed percentages that support her claim.

"A un moment donné, on arrivera à un niveau de cynisme tel que les gens trouveront la financiarisation de la moindre de leurs activités numériques insupportable. [..] Pour contrer la nature excessive de la médiation technologique, des mouvements importants de déconnexion vont apparaître"
