Rallumons les téléphones mobiles dans les classes !
Et si à l’école, on arrêtait de considérer les téléphones mobiles comme des outils de distraction, et qu’on les utilisait enfin comme des machines pour apprendre ? Et si on arrêtait de penser qu’ils sont une arme de guerre entre élèves et professeurs, entre la vie sociale et les cours ?
L’éducation en ligne n’est pas supérieure en tant que médium, mais en terme d’attention
La conclusion de l’étude que vient de publier le ministère américain de l’éducation, a le mérite de la clarté. Le New York Times n’hésite d’ailleurs pas à titrer que “l’éducation en ligne bat la salle de classe“. L’étude en question est moins péremptoire, et incite à plus de modération.
Is Online Education More Effective Than Traditional Learning?

danah boyd: some thoughts on technophilia
Rejecting technological determinism should be a mantra in our professional conversations. It's really easy to get in the habit of seeing a new shiny piece of technology and just assume that we can dump it into an educational setting and !voila! miracles will happen. Yet, we also know that the field of dreams is merely that, a dream. Dumping laptops into a classroom does no good if a teacher doesn't know how to leverage the technology for educational purposes. Building virtual worlds serves no educational purpose without curricula that connects a lesson plan with the affordances of the technology. Without educators, technology in the classroom is useless.
“We are at an inflection point in online education”
Until fairly recently, online education amounted to little more than electronic versions of the old-line correspondence courses. That has really changed with arrival of Web-based video, instant messaging and collaboration tools.
The real promise of online education, experts say, is providing learning experiences that are more tailored to individual students than is possible in classrooms. That enables more “learning by doing,” which many students find more engaging and useful.
