According to gamification.org, gamification “typically involves applying game design thinking to non-game applications to make them more fun and engaging.” In education, teachers have gamified the running of their classrooms as well as incorporating game design into the curriculum itself. In this blog post, we’ll explore why you might want to gamify your classroom, examples of gamification, and how to gamify with Moodle. Via Mercedes Kamijo, xavier suñé

iPads have certainly become a highly desired commodity in education. Apple is reporting that schools are purchasing iPads by a ratio of 2:1 over MacBooks. However, that rush to purchase the latest technologies often precedes the careful planning and preparation that’s crucial to their success as educational tools. Stated simply, technology alone doesn’t have the capacity to improve education. It needs to be woven into a holistic approach to education that encompasses thorough planning and ongoing review of the skills and competencies required by the rapidly changing society that characterizes life in the 21st century.

Este informe (en inglés) indaga sobre las opiniones de los padres cuyos hijos pertenecen a una generación móvil, desde niños en edad preescolar hasta estudiantes de la escuela secundaria. ¿Cómo perciben los padres el valor de los dispositivos móviles, qué piensan de su uso con objetivos educativos y de recreación, qué opinan de las posibilidades que brindan los móviles? En vista del creciente interés en el M-Learning por parte de instituciones educativas, y en la expansión de los modelos de BYOD ("Trae tu propio dispositivo"), los padres pueden llegar a ser aliados clave en este nuevo campo de aprendizaje.
