Petite histoire de la formation à distance – infographie
Quand on parle de formation à distance, on pense immédiatement à l’e-learning et à Internet. Mais en réalité, la formation à distance a déjà une très longue histoire derrière elle, vieille de près de 3 siècles. Voici une infographie et un article pour revoir un peu cette petite histoire de la formation à distance. Avertissement : cette infographie et l’article qui l’accompagne sont extraits d’une ressource du cours « Apprendre en ligne » que je me prépare à lancer dans les prochaines semaines. Ce cours sera offert à l’inscription de tout autre cours en ligne que je proposerai bientôt. Mise à jour 7-02-2014 : MOOC ITyPA. La formation à distance : une histoire vieille de près de trois siècles ! L’engouement récent pour les MOOCs (cours en ligne massif et ouverts) et pour l’e-learning en général nous font oublier à quel point l’histoire de la formation à distance est déjà riche et ancienne.

In 2012, the biggest changes on the Web were in online education, social networks, and the increasing use of smartphones and tablets.
Live and learn: Everybody went mobile in 2012 (or so it seemed), but the most groundbreaking movement on the Web may have been the rise of digital education. For all the attention lavished on the Web’s growth on mobile devices this year, one of the most interesting Internet trends is still best experienced on a desktop computer: online education. The rising cost of higher education (the average bachelor’s degree now costs more than $100,000), combined with increasing access to high-speed Internet service and a desire for more efficient and flexible learning methods, brought new prominence to websites offering free or low-priced courses in everything from programming to literature. Free online code-learning startup Codecademy’s effort to teach novices to code snagged more than 400,000 participants for its weekly lessons in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Another segment of the Web that experienced major changes in 2012 was social networking.
Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age
Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age December 12, 2004 George Siemens Update (April 5, 2005): I've added a website to explore this concept at www.connectivism.ca Introduction Behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism are the three broad learning theories most often utilized in the creation of instructional environments. Learners as little as forty years ago would complete the required schooling and enter a career that would often last a lifetime. “One of the most persuasive factors is the shrinking half-life of knowledge. Some significant trends in learning: Many learners will move into a variety of different, possibly unrelated fields over the course of their lifetime. Background Driscoll (2000) defines learning as “a persisting change in human performance or performance potential…[which] must come about as a result of the learner’s experience and interaction with the world” (p.11). Driscoll (2000, p14-17) explores some of the complexities of defining learning. Conclusion:
Eduquer au XXIe siècle
Entre 1900 et 2011, tout a changé pour les écoliers qui vivent à présent dans le virtuel et dans une société multiculturelle, analyse Michel Serres. Il faut aider l'école à prendre la mesure de cette nouvelle ère. Le Monde.fr | • Mis à jour le | Par Michel Serres, de l'Académie française Avant d'enseigner quoi que ce soit à qui que ce soit, au moins faut-il le connaître. Qui se présente, aujourd'hui, à l'école, au collège, au lycée, à l'université ? Ce nouvel écolier, cette jeune étudiante n'a jamais vu veau, vache, cochon ni couvée. - Il habite la ville. - Son espérance de vie va vers quatre-vingts ans. - Depuis soixante ans, intervalle unique dans notre histoire, il et elle n'ont jamais connu de guerre, ni bientôt leurs dirigeants ni leurs enseignants. - Alors que leurs parents furent conçus à l'aveuglette, leur naissance est programmée. Bilan temporaire. Ces enfants habitent donc le virtuel. Ils ne connaissent ni n'intègrent ni ne synthétisent comme nous, leurs ascendants. Je répète.

Emerging Perspectives on Learning, Teaching and Technology
Connectivism
Clarissa Davis, Earl Edmunds, Vivian Kelly-Bateman Department of Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology, University of Georgia Review of Connectivism Introduction Just like anything else that involves human experience or interaction, the act of learning does not happen in a vacuum. If you would like a quick introduction to connectionism, try looking at networked student in plain English video. Half-Life of Knowledge New technology forces the 21st century learner to process and apply information in a very different way and at a very different pace from any other time in history. Taking into account the ideas presented in the video, how is the 21st century learner supposed to assimilate all this information, and make valuable use of it? Components of Connectivism Chaos Theory Importance of Networks According to Siemens, “considering technology and meaning-making as learning activities begins to move learning into the digital age” (2005, para. 15).
