How to Use Twitter to Build Your Students’ Personal Learning Networks Licensed Under CCSA/stevegarfield You may be familiar with the Toyota Venza commercial where a young woman expresses concern over her parents’ 19 Facebook friends compared to her own 687 friends; all the while, her parents are out mountain biking. To many students, puppy videos and amassing a ridiculously large circle of “friends” is the epitome of social networking. Unbeknownst to them, another kind of network exists within their favorite social networks: the personal learning network (PLN). It’s up to savvy professors to direct students’ attention away from the puppy videos and toward conversations about research, trends and resources within their fields of study. Dr. Transforming Twitter From a Social Network to a PLN Drawing on social-constructivist pedagogy, Rhode knew he wanted his graduate students, who were in-service teachers, to engage with the subject matter and each other.

‫أدمين هرّابينو - الفيديو الذي فسخه النهضواين عديد المرات | Facebook‬ The Learning Project It's been said and discussed often here and many places that a real shift for educators is moving from teacher to learner. Not so much moving, we still need teachers, expertise matters but until we see ourselves as learners and intentionally show are students we can't be the educator our students need us to be. Last week I began my ECMP 355 course with largely freshman pre-service teachers. I'm trying to get them to consider something new. Last year i read Ewan's post about a 100 hour challenge. 1. 2. 3. 4. That's it. I'm really looking forward to my own learning but also watching others learn as well.

Libye : « La vérité est que nous négocions avec la France et non avec les rebelles », affirme Saif al Islam Le Gouvernement libyen de Mouammar Kadhafi mène des négociations avec le Gouvernement français, déclare Saif al Islam, un fils du colonel dans un entretien accordé à la presse algérienne, à paraître lundi. « La vérité est que nous négocions avec la France et non avec les rebelles », affirme Saif al Islam dans le journal El Khabar, lors d’une interview réalisée à Tripoli. « Notre émissaire auprès de (Nicolas) Sarkozy a indiqué que le président français a été très clair et lui a dit, ‘nous avons créé le conseil (des rebelles) et sans notre soutien, notre argent et nos armes, le conseil n’aurait jamais existé’ », ajoute al Islam. « La France a dit : ‘lorsque nous serons parvenus à un accord avec vous (Tripoli), nous obligerons le Conseil à cesser le feu’ », ajoute encore al-Islam. Paris, qui a été en pointe sur l’intervention militaire en Libye, semble avoir fait évoluer sa position sur le conflit, signe d’une impatience croissante à l’égard des maigres progrès enregistrés sur le terrain.

Que va faire Microsoft avec #Skype ? Passage en revue des raisons stratégiques d'une telle acquisition Microsoft vient donc de réaliser la plus grosse acquisition de son histoire en s'offrant Skype pour plus de 8,5 milliards de dollars, en cash, dette incluse. Si le roi de la VoIP est cher payé, rappelons que le service affiche encore des pertes malgré des revenus en hausse, il constitue néanmoins une pépite avec ses 663 millions d’inscrits dont 124 millions d'actifs tous les mois et 8,1 millions d’utilisateurs payants, soit le numéro un mondial de la VoIP.

The Flipped Classroom: Pro and Con In 2012, I attended the ISTE conference in San Diego, CA. While I was only there for about 36 hours, it was easy for me to pick up on one of the hottest topics for the three-day event. The "flipped classroom" was being discussed in social lounges, in conference sessions, on the exhibit floor, on the hashtag and even at dinner. People wanted to know what it was, what it wasn't, how it's done and why it works. What It Is According to the description on ASCD's page for the newly released book, Flip Your Classroom: Reach Every Student in Every Class Every Day, by flipped-classroom pioneers Aaron Sams and Jonathan Bergmann, "In this model of instruction, students watch recorded lectures for homework and complete their assignments, labs, and tests in class." The authors go on to explain that the model is a mixture of direct instruction and constructivism, that it makes it easier for students who may have missed class to keep up because they can watch the videos at any time. What It Isn't
