Serious Computer Games as a Teaching Tool. Atlantis Remixed. Transformational play involves the use of virtual worlds to help people learn and grow in a context where they can fail safely.

Theory At its core, transformational play is a learning and empowerment philosophy that is grounded in the belief that each one of us is capable of, wants to, and deserves to achieve, great things. Unlike any other form of curriculum, these games offer entire worlds in which learners are central, important participants; a place where the actions of a ten-year old can have significant impact on the world; and a place in which what you know is directly related to what you are able to do and, ultimately, who you become. The theory highlights relations among the three interconnected elements of person with intentionality, content with legitimacy, and context with consequentiality. This stands in sharp contrast to the more traditional positioning of content as facts to be memorized, not as meaningful tools that are necessary for transforming a problematic situation.

SPARKS IT AND EDUCATION. Blog Pere Marques: What is the bimodal curriculum? See multimedia presentationIntroduction: New Culture, "i-Person" and Education Several years ago we entered a New Age, the Internet Age, with a New Culture that clearly deviates from the contemporary culture of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and since then we are living "the greatest social change in human history" (Partal, 2001) Understanding culture as the "set of representations, rules of conduct, ideas, values, forms of communication and behavior learned patterns (not innate) that characterize a social group" (Quintanilla, 1992), economic globalization and constant cultural and scientific advances, especially the construction of Cyberspace, have conducted profound changes in our cultural substrate forming a "new technological paradigm organized around Information Technology" (Castells, 2000:60).

In the present study, three different modes / communications environments were compared in a context of cooperation between e-deficient students. Each child was accompanied by a teacher - tutors who monitored, for each environment, social context, interactivity, privacy and the feeling of privacy, online communication, and the degree of socialization achieved.

The success of these sessions brought through a more structured project on autism and educational robotics. It is going to start in September, 2010. For these educational laboratories with autistic children we employed a pc, a projector, a kit Lego Wedo, paper and pens. In each lesson the students could assemble a small robot (using a robotics kit) following on the screen the related digital manual. We split up the students in two groups, assigning to each of them some different tasks. It was in discussing with the children's teachers that we had understood the methodological importance of assigning the task to the autistic children: a) to clarify the assignment to them, and b) as a way to involve all the autistic children.

We knew the difficulties involved in setting a definite methodology for autism. Roberta. Www.roberta-home.de/en.

Robots can be used as educational technology to help parents and therapists in teaching children with autism. Autism is a disorder affecting very young children, undermining their ability to interact socially, and communicate effectively. Sensory integration therapy is used to help children with autism get used to situations that they are sensitive to, in a fashion that is not distressing to the child. This type of therapy assumes that the distress felt by autistic children is the result of over-stimulation, or under-stimulation. In a very interesting article by Mark Turner, the author quotes the discovery by Italian neuroscientist Giacomo Rizzolatti and co-workers about the "mirror neurons" and other recent studies aboput the brain areas underpinning imitation.

Khan Academy. IPad = Flipped Classroom Made Easy. Yes, the Flipped Classroom (Video lessons watched before class time) is a fashionable topic but whilst there’s still chalk-and-talk together with standardised testing I feel I must continue to push it. And no, it’s not just chalk-and-talk in disguise. It creates a whole new learning environment for the student. I haven’t taught a whole class for 6 months! All my teaching is now one-to-one and not surprisingly, my grades are soaring. In the classroom I only teach individual students the specific points they highlight as unclear after watching the video lesson and I monitor progress on the projects they’ve designed to prove understanding of the content.
