Sergio D. Bosio Nos contará como ha realizado las distintas estrategias, de la mano del conectivismo, para lograr motivar y comprometer a los adolescentes de la escuela media, en el último año de la misma. Comprometido con la idea de que la escuela esta para formar ciudadanos alfabetizados digitalmente, preparados y orientados vocacionalmente. Nos contará como ha desarrollado el diseño de clases que, entre otras cosas, logró que uno de sus alumnos se matricule simultáneamente a la escuela media, en una Universidad de España. Lo que constituye un hecho inédito e interesante. Como conclusión, logra visualizar como debe ser el paso hacia la universidad. Nuevas estrategias para que la Universidad logre más matriculados (Cantidad) y mejor alfabetizados (Calidad). Logrando con este diseño instruccional, capturar y fidelizar nuevos a alumnos, haciendo más rentable económicamente la labor de la Universidad. Por otro lado el diseño apunta a socorrer a la escuela media, incurriendo en ella sin interferir, mejorando el rendimiento académico de los alumnos de la escuela de hoy y futuros estudiantes universitarios.

Karen Armstrong


Charter for Compassion International


How to Change the World
Karen Armstrong, renowned and provocative writer about the nature of religion will speak about compassion as the common imperative in all world religions: Every single one of the world religions has developed this ethos of compassion, summed up in the ‘Golden Rule’ - which has arisen independently in all religions - ‘never treat others as you would not like to be treated yourself’. That is the test of true spirituality, rather than any doctrine or rules. Speaking about the Charter for Compassion, the global peace initiative of which she is the founder, posits that compassion is a force that can change politics, governments and communities, I am convinced that compassion is key to the survival of our world but urged us to begin with ourselves – what can I do to make my family or my workplace more compassionate? – and be gentle, it’s step by step. And it is a rewarding journey, don’t feel burdened by it: compassion can be a lot of fun.
BIO:
Religious thinker Karen Armstrong has written more than 20 books on faith and the major religions, studying what Islam, Judaism and Christianity have in common, and how our faiths shaped world history and drive current events. A former nun, Armstrong has written two books about this experience: Through the Narrow Gate, about her seven years in the convent, and The Spiral Staircase, about her subsequent spiritual awakening, when she developed her iconoclastic take on the major monotheistic religions -- and on the strains of fundamentalism common to all. She is a powerful voice for ecumenical understanding. Armstrong's 2008 TED Prize wish asked to help her assemble the Charter for Compassion, a document around which religious leaders can work together for peace. In late fall 2008, the first draft of the document was written by the world, via a sharing website. In February 2009 the words of the world were collected and given to the Council of Conscience, a gathering of religious leaders and thinkers, who are now crafting the final document. The Charter was launched in November 2009.

Design and Maker Thinking - how can they be part of our Everyday in Education
The focus of this presentation is to investigate the teaching and learning of design and maker thinking in schools. Design Thinking is a context-driven, human centered problem solving process that emphasizes ideation, learning from failure, prototyping and designing for real-world use. Maker Thinking is related to the DIY mindset and refers to a process of thinking through making, emphasizing tinkering resourcefulness. How and why is this thinking relevant? Should we be teaching these processes in our schools? Where does this type of problem solving fit in in the current education landscape? How can this thinking we integrated into education?

The Transformation of Education
Those entering school this year do not know a world without technology or the web. Our students are children of technology and the web. It is where and how they manage their resources, where and how they manage their relationships, where and how they collaborate with each other, and most importantly, where and how they learn. Think about what we do with technology and the web today and try to imagine what we will be able to do in two years, ten years, or 20 years. We will examine what the transformation of education needs to look like to take advantage of new learning models, and in the process, transform “students” into lifelong “learners.”

La educación necesita más Realidad Aumentada, con o sin computadoras
En Argentina el Plan Conectar Igualdad lleva entregadas más de 3.600.000 de netbooks y ha capacitado a miles de docentes con el fin de mejorar los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje a través de la modificación de las formas de trabajo en el aula y en la escuela a partir del uso de las TIC; aun así las pruebas del informe PISA (Programa Internacional para la Evaluación de Estudiantes) señalan que el 52% de los alumnos argentinos de 15 años no entiende lo que está leyendo y un 54% no puede resolver problemas básicos de matemática. Frente a esta realidad planteamos cuáles son las competencias que deben desarrollar los alumnos para mejorar su nivel educativo y cuánto puede incidir en esto la incorporación de las TIC. La mejora educativa no es una tarea fácil, lleva tiempo e implica llevar adelante programas a largo plazo en los cuáles deben comprometerse alumnos, padres, docentes, autoridades y la sociedad toda. Miremos a quiénes hoy marcan la diferencia, aún en contextos desfavorables, para descubrir algunas cuestiones que hacen al debate sobre cómo lograr una mejor educación.

The World is My Classroom
Although the classroom may be our world, the world can by our classroom. Students need to be equipped with the skills, knowledge and understanding that will enable them to engage effectively with and prosper in an increasingly globalised world. Technology provides students and teachers with an amazing power and opportunity to gain knowledge and experiences beyond the textbook. It breaks down all physical and social barriers. We can connect, collaborate and create in both synchronous and asynchronous time globally with students, classes, teachers, experts and community members. This presentation will share some stories from an innovative, practising classroom teacher and will provide a glimpse into what can be achieved, how it can be achieved and the amazing resultant outcomes that are now possible when learning extends beyond the classroom walls. It will also cover an array of useful tools for global interactions, the challenges faced and means for overcoming these challenges and provide useful resources. Teaching and learning globally will create the need for new competencies. What might these be? Please join this session and join in the conversations.

DRAP: Diseño de Recursos de Aprendizaje Personalizados
El objetivo de esta propuesta es promover el que la comunidad docente se deshaga de los obsoletos modelos mentales que se siguen practicando en las aulas. Los educadores del siglo 21 deberían desarrollar nuevas actitudes, no solo basadas en problemas de enseñanza, sino en la transformación de todo aquello en donde la innovación ya no puede llegar, donde su función tradicional resulta insuficiente para propiciar nuevas posibilidades de aprendizaje. El DRAP sugiere que cada educador diseñe su propio recurso de aprendizaje basado en las características, necesidades, intereses y preferencias de los aprendices. Esto basado en las prácticas tecno-sociales de la era en donde se fomentan nuevas culturas de aprendizaje. Los modelos de Diseño Instruccional (DI) del siglo 20 son interesantes referentes para entender cómo la educación tradicional debería transformarse. Pero, los límites de los modelos vigentes de DI deberían convertirse en las bases para sentar el desarrollo de nuevos recursos de aprendizaje personalizados. Por tanto, somos nosotros los educadores quienes deberíamos tomar la iniciativa de construir ecosistemas de aprendizaje con el fin de expandir nuevos horizontes de posibilidades. El rol de transmitir conocimiento basado en contenidos ya resulta ser insuficiente en el aprendizaje del siglo 21. Ahora se habla de aprendizaje basado en competencias. Dichas competencias solo pueden ser afianzadas desde la interacción social, ejecución de proyectos, solución de problemas, manejo de conflictos, manejo de conflictos creación de nuevos productos de utilidad, pronóstico de fenómenos emergentes, participación activa en situaciones reales y aprendizaje basado en el trabajo. El educador del siglo 21 debe prepararse para: crear, diseñar, emprender, dinamizar, moderar, facilitar y generar nuevas posibilidades. La pedagogía de la obediencia a la que hemos estado subordinados durante décadas se está transformando a nivel social por la pedagogía del pensamiento.
