Rutas Cervantes :: Paris :: Instituto Cervantes :: Ruta Rayuela La Anécdota A la hora de diseñar la cubierta de Rayuela, Julio Cortázar tiene claro que quiere una rayuela. El 8 de octubre de 1962, durante el proceso de producción del libro, le escribe a Paco Porrúa, su editor en Sudamericana: "Voy a ir el sábado a las librerías de Saint-Germain-des-Prés, y miraré los álbumes de Brassaï y otros fotógrafos en busca de una rayuela". Debió ser ese día que compró Graffitis, fotolibro publicado por Brassaï el año anterior. Juan Manuel Bonet La Sugerencia "Cuantos viajeros no han buscado la rue de Seine para asomarse al arco que da al Quai de Conti en un atardecer de diciembre y tratar de distinguir sobre el Pont des Arts la figura delgada de una mujer inclinada sobre el agua" asevera el autor de la ruta de Rayuela, el escritor José María Conget. Ese pequeño "pasadizo" en el que comienza la novela es el punto sugerido e inevitable de la ruta, el número uno de nuestro recorrido.
Concept Maps Used as a learning and teaching technique, concept mapping visually illustrates the relationships between concepts and ideas. Often represented in circles or boxes, concepts are linked by words and phrases that explain the connection between the ideas, helping students organize and structure their thoughts to further understand information and discover new relationships. Most concept maps represent a hierarchical structure, with the overall, broad concept first with connected sub-topics, more specific concepts, following. Concept Map Example Definition of a Concept Map A concept map is a type of graphic organizer used to help students organize and represent knowledge of a subject. Benefits of Concept Mapping Concept mapping serves several purposes for learners: How to Build a Concept Map Concept maps are typically hierarchical, with the subordinate concepts stemming from the main concept or idea.

Open Data Kit The MRC Molecular Haematology Unit 40 Android Apps A few weeks ago I invited readers to share their favorite iPad apps for the classroom, and the comments section features several good suggestions. Last week I asked readers to share their favorite Android apps for the classroom, and… well… we didn’t end up with nearly as many suggestions. I do not own an Android device, but I spent some time searching for apps that might prove useful for pedagogical purposes, and the list below is the result. (I’ve also made this information available as a spreadsheet on GoogleDrive, which you are free to copy and re-use however you like.) In the comments section below, please share any additional suggestions you have of Android apps for the classroom. 1Password Price: FreeDownload from Google PlayDeveloper: AgileBits“Have you ever forgotten a password?

Glastonbury Festivals - Welcome To Glastonbury Festivals Mind mapping Aunque nosotros estamos acostumbrados a trabajar con el texto, las ideas muchas veces pueden ser mejor plasmadas de una forma gráfica. Ya sea desde los comienzos de un proyecto hasta diagramas organizacionales, este método es efectivo y conocido. Como tal, hay muchas aplicaciones que nos pueden ayudar a resolver nuestra organización a través del mind mapping, que definiremos en unas líneas. Para quienes no lo sepan, un mind map o mapa mental es una forma gráfica de representar ideas y conceptos. El mind map se opone a la anotación normal que, en nuestro caso, podemos tomar con aplicaciones como Evernote o la reciente Google Keep, dado que no se trata de un texto lineal, sino de una estructuración que se asemeja a la forma en que funciona realmente nuestro cerebro. Hemos seleccionado cinco aplicaciones para hacer mind maps de diferente calibre, que se corresponden con diferentes necesidades. FreeMind MindMeister XMind Freeplane Map Myself
Prospects Markdown: The Syntax You (Probably) Already Know There are a lot of reasons to love plain text. We’ve mentioned some of them in earlier ProfHacker posts, such as Alex’s about JDarkRoom and Jason’s about nvALT. Briefly, plain text is a great format to use because (1) it can be read by any computer or device; (2) it’s future proof, since computers will always be able to read it; (3) it can be synced to all your devices; (4) it can be converted to virtually any format. In a future post, I plan to explain the virtues of plain text at greater length. But there is one major objection to writing in plain text. The program saves only to .txt files? There’s a way for plain text to handle formatting too, in a way that’s lightweight and so easy to learn, you might already know it. The Syntax You Already Know Suppose you’re writing an e-mail (that will be sent in plain text). Be sure to read William James, _The Varieties of Religious Experience_. That looks like a title. James's book will **definitely** be covered on the final exam. Markdown
Events Three ways to use Markdown with Evernote | To Do Hack As many of you will know, Markdown is a very fast and easy way of generating HTML without knowing how to code. Effectively this means that you can quickly create all kinds of formatted documents, which may be blog posts, web pages, or in this case Evernote notes. At present Evernote doesn’t have an inbuilt Markdown capability, but there are tools and hacks available to bridge the gap. The first tool that can be used to work with Markdown in Evernote is Markdown Here, a browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer. The second tool that enables markdown in Evernote is Markable. The third option is Byword, a Mac editor. Finally you may recall that I posted on 3 ways to use templates with Evernote. If you want to learn more about markdown, its syntax and uses I recommend Instant Markdown.
