Las redes sociales están desempeñando un papel cada vez más importante en la configuración del comportamiento de los usuarios en la web. Los servicios de redes sociales cada vez cuentan con un mayor tráfico y un uso en constante crecimiento por parte de los usuarios. No cabe duda de que se están convirtiendo en espacios de comunidad, donde los usuarios interactúan con su entorno y acercan distancias.
A través de comportamientos individuales podemos comprender el comportamiento del usuario en general. No obstante, cuánto mayor es la cifra de usuarios de una determinada comunidad y menos específica en su orientación temática, de contenido, de servicios, de participación… mayor es la diferencia que encontramos entre unos y otros. Lo verdaderamente importante en la mayor parte de las ocasiones es interpretar la acción de los usuarios en un contexto en línea con las personas a las que están conectadas socialmente y la influencia que entre ellas se produce.
Norma. The Best iPad Tips and Tricks. A mobile device has changed the ways you interact with the computer.

Some frequently used keys turn ‘soft’ and appear only when you're running the apps, and special keys like Ctrl, Alt, Esc and Function keys are removed from the onscreen keyboard. Shedding some light on this trend, these tips and tricks might be of interest to you and come in handy especially when you've just got an iPad in your hand. Most of them may also work well on other iOS devices like the iPhone and the iPod touch running on the same mobile operating system.

So much have been written about Bloom’s taxonomy; one click in a search engine will flood your page with hundreds of articles all of which revolve around this taxonomy. Only few are those who have tried to customize it to fit in the 21st century educational paradigm. As a fan of Bloom’s pedagogy and being a classroom practitioner, I always look for new ways to improve my learning and teaching, and honestly speaking , if you are a teacher/ educator and still do not understand Bloom’s taxonomy then you are missing out on a great educational resource. The following article is a summary and a fruit of my long painstaking research in the field of Bloom’s taxonomy.
The purpose is to help teachers grow professionally and provide them with a solid informational background on how to better understand and apply Bloom’s taxonomy in classrooms in the light of the new technological advances and innovations. 1 – The cognitive : The intellectual or knowledge based domain consisted of 6 levels .
