From sciences to education: complex and not direct ways
•No well shaped science to simplify
• No simple update of contents (more complex mapping)
• Old disciplinary model from 19e century to be modified
• Links to elaborate with professions

Current projects:
– LIMIN’R: links between media literacy, information
literacy and digital literacy
– Digital textbooks and working platforms
– PREA2K30 project (ready for 2030) is a one-year action:
• prospective reflection workshop supported by the French
national agency for research (ANR).
• aims to identify and precise main issues for the next twenty
years concerning knowledge and key tools for learning and
teaching taking into account economical, industrial and
social dimensions.
More concretely: producing groups of scenarios helping
ANR to launch new research streams.

ICT in classrooms
• A huge literature devoted to
the impact of ICT in classrooms
– 90% to be thrown out
– No consistent results
– See EDU’SUMMIT 2011 (Unesco)
• According to many researchers
(Cuban, Collins & Halverson, etc.)
– School system is robust and cannot
integrate seriously ICT
– Some disruptive innovations (Christensen…)
– ICT as a lever of change
– Towards a new schooling model

12
Disruptive Innovation
• Increase of blended learning (presence and
distance)
• According to Christensen, in 2019, 50% of all
courses (high schools) will be on line
– In US, number of students having taken an online
course:
• In 2000, 45000 students
• In 2009, more than 3 millions

13
Future of the school system
• Towards a new system:
– Schools will not very soon disappear.
– Change seeds are here, eroding identification
between learning and schooling.
– School has been a good answer to increasing
urbanization issues. Several elements have been
combined to create a robust and adapted system.
Can it change? Integrate technologies?
• Technological developments can raise several
issues: equity, social behavior and cultural
cohesion of the society.
Allan Collins, Richard Halverson (2009). Rethinking Education in the Age of
Technology: The Digital Revolution and Schooling in America. New York:
Teachers College Press, 176 p.

14
ICT for education
• Some up to date (very modern)
words:
– Personalization
– Interactivity
– Extend education: any place, any
time with seamless devices

15
Example
From the 19th century until now
From electric life to smart life,
what has changed?

16
Albert Robida (1892). The 20th century, the electric life (Wallet, 2006)

17
Seoul Subway
Service not provided by
institution: Personal
objects. Advertisements,
security messages…
What about the news? (Not consulted in Robida’s picture)
For doing what?
Learning ?

18
A global world newspaper?
Metro is the world’s largest international newspaper
and is recognised by the Guinness World Records. Metro International and its commercial
partners publish 68 daily editions in 22 countries around the world. Every day, Metro is read
by more than 21 million readers in over 150 major cities across Europe, North and South
America and Asia.
Pre digested information, same logo, same format, same
process. “Personalized” content?

19
ICT,
renewing schools?

20
A way tor by-pass the law
Falls 1880, Le Charivari
journal denounces the guiles
of the Jesuits for continuing
their teaching in schools
(forbidden by law, march
1880): hiding their identity,
going abroad with their
students
Using telephone, they could
teach from Belgium! (Wallet,
2006)
http://sticef.univ-lemans.fr/num/vol2006/wallet-
03/sticef_2006_wallet_03.htm

21
Private / public school
Beyond public school
• Fear of parents and school pressure: going in
public school is not enough
– In Korea, young students spend too much time in
private schools. Limitation at 10 p.m., uses of e-
learning at home to bypass the law.
– Creation of a Cyber Home Learning System (CHLS)
in order to reduce the gap with private courses
• Hikikomori (social withdrawal)
– people staying at home or in their room, and not participating in any
social activity for more than six months, without any mental disorder as a
cause
– Between 300.000 and 1 million in Japan

22
Social effects and ICT
(Derycke, 2010)
• Anyplace, anytime leads to always
connected = always reachable
– Only powerful persons may disconnect
themselves
• Technological continuity leads to
fragment human activities
(constrained by external events;
trigger to a lot of micro-activities)…

23
A story form Iceland:
foreign language learning
• Immersion, from a real life to a
virtual reality concept
– Spending a period of time in a
foreign country: you become fluent
– Interaction continuity (connected
mode with friends and country)
using smart technology: you remain
a beginner

24
ICT for education
• Some up to date (very modern)
words:
– Personalization
– Interactivity
– Extend education: any place, any
time with seamless devices
A new or and old story?

25

Rank audio visual,
1966

26
A new context
• Convergent elements:
– Approaches using competences
– New management:
• accountability
• Management with indicators
(general tendency of quantification of social
objects)
– Financial crisis
• Cost management
• Economical view is dominating
Mechanical Vision with independent elements

27
Towards a new school
system?
But other stories

28
Some potential in education
• Computer as a Meta-instrument
(Alan Kay)
• Allowing experimentation in each
subject
– Searching for a metaphor in English
– What if? Exploring answers of a
search engine

29
Tables and internet
• A table structure, links via internet…
• Towards a new collective writing,
continuing Jack Goody’s ideas (1977):
“The domestication of the savage mind”
Importance of lists and tables (written vs oral
culture)
• From graphical to computational
writing and ideas
From tables to graphs : collective and recording of
the writing process

30
Digital natives / naives
• Strong opposition between school
use and home use of computer
instruments
– Same technology
– Immature culture (immediate
satisfaction) vs distance and
reflection
• Giving computers to teenagers
(grade 8 and 9):reserved results

31
New trends
• Communication, Facebook…
– New youth culture in several years?
• Geo localization
• Internet of things
• Digital fabrication
– Cutting printers
– 3D printers

32
Computational Thinking
Problem-solving process with:
• Formulating problems in a way that enables us to use
a computer and other tools to help solve them.
• Logically organizing and analyzing data
• Representing data through abstractions such as
models and simulations
• Automating solutions through algorithmic thinking (a
series of ordered steps)
• Identifying, analyzing, and implementing possible
solutions with the goal of achieving the most efficient
and effective combination of steps and resources
• Generalizing and transferring this problem solving
process to a wide variety of problems

33
• Yang Zhao
– Invent a job, not find a job:
– Students as Global Entrepreneurs

34
New models
• “Democratizing innovation” (Von
Hippel)
• Ascending innovation (Cardon) or
bottom-up innovation
– Not participative design
• Collective writing, free encyclopaedia
as Wikipedia (Levrel)
• Free software and copyleft
– SPIP, Claroline…(Horn)
• Communities of practice (Wenger)

35
Teacher communities
producing resources
• Internet allows
– collaborative design among distant people
– free and immediate access to resources
– collective discussion about resources
• use with students and
• possible improvements after classroom use
– Life cycles of educational resources
including initial design and classroom use
• Sesamath, mathematical teachers
– nearly 1/5 of math textbook market
– Free textbooks, activities outside schools, results
for teachers… Loss of classical boundaries

36
Higher Education: ECP, top
level engineering school
• The engineer has to master sciences, trans
disciplinarity and put science into action in a
complex world where human aspects are key
features
• Towards more subjects with strong human
component (innovation, entrepreneurship,
leadership ...),
self-esteem, self-efficacy, self-knowledge
• Which pedagogy of trans-disciplinarity and
complexity?
• we talk about pedagogy grounded in reality
(projects, case studies ...), but what is the
reality for our students?

37
Some concluding remarks
• From STEM to STEAM,
– theory of information: goal of education,
reducing entropy (social cohesion)
• The undo button:
– Useful to get confidence in computer
systems
– To suppress in art (or in life) for
engagement
• Sciences of explanation: not only
correlations between huge amounts of
anonymous data, supporting political
decision
