språkutvecklande med IKT? Modern teknik Enligt läroplanen för grundskolan, Lgr 11, ska skolan ansvara för att varje elev efter genomgången grundskola kan använda modern teknik som ett verktyg för kunskapssökande, kommunikation, skapande och lärande. Men vad innebär det och var börjar man? Hülya Basaran, lärare för nyanlända elever i Trollhättan, skriver så här: "Som lärare kan det kännas svårt att hänga med i utvecklingen av det digitala samhället och finna kraft och tid för att inte bara ta till sig allt nytt utan också utgå från pedagogiska idéer för att utveckla lärprocesser.

Come Trovare Immagini Gratuite da Usare (legalmente) per i Tuoi Articoli | Webilicious.it Hai bisogno di un’immagine per un articolo del tuo blog o una pagina del tuo sito? Se segui ‘la massa’ la prima cosa che fai di solito, è quella di tuffarti su Google image alla ricerca di qualche immagine trendy da accaparrarti! Sfortunatamente, il rischio che corri dal punto di vista legale ogni volta che ripubblichi un’immagine che non ti appartiene non è un dettaglio, né va sottovalutato. A meno che infatti tu non goda di precisi diritti al riguardo, la maggior parte delle immagini che trovi su google image sono coperte da copyright e in quanto tale proprietà esclusiva di chi a fatto/ pubblicato la foto. Lascia che sottolinei l’entità del rischio che puoi correre: se la persona in possesso dei diritti relativi a quell’immagine ha seguito i giusti step per proteggerla con copyright, potresti trovarti non solo ad essere multato per aver infranto il copyright, ma a dover anche pagare i danni relativi, per un totale che può aggirarsi intorno a cifre davvero notevoli! 1. 1. 3. 4.
