#CCK11 gRSShopper vs Moodle – Any thoughts?
serenaturri, serenaturri's Blog
Decido di fornire il mio contributo ragionando su un tema già toccato e per il quale ora mi trovo in ritardo, ma poiché è molto forte il fascino esercitato dai verbi unire e collegare, decido di rompere gli indugi e lasciarmi andare. Downes sollecita pareri, opinioni, considerazioni su gRSShopper, un progetto che è molto di [...] [Link] 2011-02-22T16:08:52 [Comment]

cck11: Applying connectivism through concept mapping
lindsayjordan, Life through a Linz
A few days ago I wrote down some practical thoughts on what connectivism might bring to the way I teach and the way my students learn. As a result, I did a concept mapping activity with both my tutor groups last week. They are currently starting small-scale teaching development projects of their own, and a common [...] [Link] 2011-02-22T11:00:52 [Comment]

olá, eu escrevi no seu blog, mas não encontrei as respostas. gostaria de esclarecer que me posicionei sobre o uso da tecnologia, que os médicos na atualidade para opinarem um diagnóstico lançam inicialmente de resultados de exames. A educação está a lançar mão da tecnologia [Comment]

Distributing the Dialogues
Ken Anderson, 1186 - Connectivism-2011 (per alQpr), February 22, 2011.

Hi Alan Thanks for the idea of distributing the discussions away from this forum. It's probably a good idea. I find that here the discussion is being steered in certain directions (mesh networks are the best, for example) without much debate on the issue. I feel that I am being asked to "take my word for it". Hopefully I can contribute to a discussion on your blog, but I may have to lurk for awhile, as my limited neural network capacity is required for the completion of some other chores. Have you joined the FB group yet? This could be a good discussion: http://qpr.ca/blogs/cck11/2011/02/22/groups-vs-networks/ Cheers [Comment]

They must much to learn because others find it useful. translate (but i don't now how good by google) 21 février 2011 23:44" Inicialmente obrigado! ë muito bom ter alguém que lê as nossas reflexões; E eu achei muito engraçado, pois aquela postagem foi uma espécie de desabafo!!! por não concordar com alguns acontecimentos em meu ambiente de trabalho!! Mas olha aí o que resultou, em uma sua resposta :) Mas gostaria de explicar alguns itens! - o currículo é muito bom! _ mas eu tenho algumas posições hierárquicas acima de mim!!! _ e não estou a concordar que se efetivem aprendizagens online, sem implicações das novas tecnologias!
