Computational Participation: Towards a National EducationPolicy in Uruguay ...@cristobalcobo
L@S: Fourth Annual ACM Conference on Learning at Scale
April 20 – 21, 2017 @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology
organized with the Association for Computing Machinery (www.acm.org).
In 2007, Plan Ceibal became the first nationwide ubiquitous educational computer program in the world based on the 1:1 model. It is one of the most important programs implemented by Uruguay’s Government to minimize digital divide and is based upon three pillars: equity, learning and technology. As of 2007, Plan Ceibal has covered public schools, providing every student and teacher in kindergarten, primary and middle school with a laptop or tablet and internet access in the school, as well as a comprehensive set of educational software platforms.
Plan Ceibal reached 85% of the students in Uruguay (100% of public education 1 to 9 grades students) reducing significantly the digital divide between the “have” and the “have-nots”.
After the massive deployment of devices, platforms and connectivity, as well as educational resources, now the focus is particularly on teachers training, development of new pedagogies as well as a new culture for understanding teaching and learning (i.e. new pedagogies for deep learning). This presentation summarize the "computational thinking" and the "maker culture" promoted by this public policy in Uruguay.

From Digital Literacy to Digital FluencyDavid Cain
While our students may appear to be digital natives, they rarely have the capacity to make wise or ethical decisions as they construct their digital identities. As educators, we have a moral imperative to guide our students--even in an ever-changing digital landscape.
Doha College Mobile Learning Conference 2014: Learning from ResearchKevin Burden
Dr. Kevin Burden (The University of Hull) argues that like many educational technologies in the past, whilst we know fairly well WHAT works when students have access to a mobile device, we have virtually no idea WHY it works. Design Based Research (DBR) offers an opportunity to unlock this mystery and in so doing help to replicate and extend the use of mobile technologies in ways which have not even been imagined yet

mLearning and MOOCs as an optimal training environmentInge de Waard
This presentation merges the benefits from mobile learning and MOOCs. The presentation was given during one of ADL Interagency Mobile Learning Webinars on 16 July 2013.
In this keynote for Anglia Ruskin University's Digifest 2016 I introduced the idea that a convergence of emerging digital contexts is creating a tipping point in understanding the hybrid learning space. This changes the relationships we have with our students and signals at last that digital lifewide learning shifts the balance from a teaching or content-centred paradigm to learning paradigm.
The implications are staff and students need to learning the literacies of this connectivist learning environment.

Second of three slide decks for a flipped keynote presentation at the SEDA UK conference, November 2014. This looks at two kinds of response to the digital revolution, a critical/intellectual response and a felt response.
First of three slide decks for a flipped keynote presentation at the SEDA UK conference, November 2014. This looks back at the 'digital revolution' from a point in time when we are still 'in the wake' of the digital, but hardly over it.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. But technology is everywhere...
‘We are not
rethinking some
part or aspect of
learning, we are
rethinking all of
learning in these
new digital
contexts’ (2007)
3. But technology is everywhere...
For a physical space of learning to exclude the virtual, digital devices would have
to be banned, switched off or inoperable. Otherwise the assumption must be that
learning in real space is penetrated with information and conversations from
elsewhere, and that real world learning events can be captured and amplified
into virtual spaces. (2014)

7. All settings are ‘blended’...
Settings are ‘porous’ or leaky
Boundaries between personal/institutional are blurring
(time, space, technology, content/services, tasks)
‣ learners are continuously
connected
‣ technologies are immersive
and intimate
‣ realworld locations are
data nodes
‣ continuous record ->
‘instant memorialising’
8. What (else) is blurring/blending?

10. New things to know
‣ (Sub)disciplines: web science,
digital media, internet culture,
animation, digital humanities...
‣ Interdisciplinary problems:
digital bodies, globalisation,
communication design, privacy...
‣Professional issues: ‘What does it
mean to be a lawyer in this new
ethical space?’
‣What new areas are emerging
in your subject or profession?
11. New ways of knowing
‣ Data collection, analysis, management, re/use:
what can be (done with) data?
‣ Secondary research: what and
where is legitimate knowledge?
‣ Design, inc. research design
‣ Collaboration, inc. remotely
‣ Modes of representation, e.g.
data visualisation, animation,
virtual worlds, hypermedia, digital presentation...
‣Digital/information literacy is fundamental
12. New motives for learning
‣ fewer traditional graduate jobs,
more informal ‘knowledge’ work
‣ most high value jobs involve
digital technologies
‣ 7-10 career changes, loose ties,
portfolio careers
‣ constant upgrade (the capable
self as lifelong project)
‣ alternatives to a degree: informal learning, online credits,
OERs, MOOCs, TED talks, Kahn academy, Google...
‣ Digital/information literacy is fundamental
13. New practices of learning
social media practices -> new
assumptions about sharing,
openness, credibility, authority...
personal apps/services -> new
practices of collating, collaborating,
writing, referencing...
14. New practices of learning
reliance on image-based media &
graphical interfaces -> new practices
of searching, finding, visualising,
communicating, managing info
experience of gaming -> high
expectations of simulation
environments, micro-reward
structures, assessment tasks (coding
as communication of ideas? )
15. New practices of teaching?
Borderless, blended, flipped classrooms
Networked, connected, rhizomatic learning
Open, public, massive, online courses
16. New practices of teaching?
1. Students locate, evaluate and work with information
2. Students collaborate using virtual tools
3. Students communicate ideas in a variety of media
4. Students create digital artefacts and leave a digital trace
5. Real time is precious: students are prepared, teaching is responsive
6. Authentic (academic/professional) tasks: authentic digital practices
7. Engagement and feedback from beyond the classroom/cohort
8. Students’ digital resources - tools, services, skills, identities -
are recognised and valued

18. Against the myth of digital ‘natives’
‣ Students fundamentally divided
on uses of technology in learning
‣ Learners are different! May have
limited or negative digital
experiences
‣ Some enjoy virtual engagement,
others see it as poor substitute
‣ Learners have difficulty transposing digital practices from social to
professional/academic contexts e.g. evaluating information
‣ Creative production and knowledge sharing are minority activities to
which most learners are introduced by educators (Selwyn 2011-14)
‣ NetGen (<25yo) use internet more for social/leisure but older, better
qualified people use it more for study and self-advancement
19. ‘Digital’ learners still want...
shared places and spaces of learning
shared time-of-life, cohort experience
transformational encounters with
inspiring teachers
sense of belonging
20. Universities still make a unique offer ...
shared places and spaces of learning
shared time-of-life, cohort experience
transformational encounters with
inspiring teachers
sense of belonging
high quality academic content
specialised digital practices
space to play: fluency, resilience, repertoire
‘a professional reputation, carefully managed’
... and must now reframe it in the digital space
23. Continuities and disruptions
In pairs/small groups discuss and write on post-it notes:
What should we continue doing that supports students
effectively with their learning?
What should we change to support students more
effectively (and how)?
