Teaching students good learning strategies would ensure that they know how to acquire new knowledge, which leads to improved learning outcomes, writes lead author Helen Askell-Williams of Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia. And studies bear this out. Askell-Williams cites as one example a recent finding by PISA, the Programme for International Student Assessment, which administers academic proficiency tests to students around the globe, and place American students in the mediocre middle. “Students who use appropriate strategies to understand and remember what they read, such as underlining important parts of the texts or discussing what they read with other people, perform at least 73 points higher in the PISA assessment—that is, one full proficiency level or nearly two full school years—than students who use these strategies the least,” the PISA report reads.

En vez de enseñar cosas que ya están accesibles en las redes, las escuelas y universidades deberían practicar la diversidad de formatos de aprendicaje posibles. Ya no es tan importante formar personas intelectuales que sepan de memoria datos declarativos, sino profesionales que tengan capacidades para el aprendizaje autónomo. Hoy día es más importante tener la capacidad de desaprender lo innecesario y reaprender lo que es verdaderamente esencial en el siglo 21.

Augmented reality begins with Pokémon. It begins as a toy. But it won’t remain a toy. It’s going to become an industry, a constant, a coping mechanism, a way of life. It will change how we spend our time, how we compete for status, how we interact with our loved ones. It will change the behaviors we think of as normal — already we’re seeing Pokémon Go run into racism; it won’t be long until AR cuts across other fault lines in our society.

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT Read the article. Pokemon GO is more than a game, the start of a new era where virtual moves into physical world more and more.
Also read "The brilliant mechanisms of pokemon GO" to understand why this is transformative http://tcrn.ch/29Nhtau
Plus it gives new meaning to "kids go play outside" ;-) |
