"Social learning theory is the idea that people learn most effectively when they interact with other learners about a given topic. Educational psychologists refer to this as social constructivism. Recent credibility for this theory comes from a study by Dr. Richard J. Light (Harvard School of Education) that identify factors that lead to success for college students. According to Dr. Light, the strongest determinant of students’ success in college—even more than the details of their instructors’ teaching styles—is their ability to form or participate in small study groups. Students who studied in groups, even only once a week, were more engaged in their studies, were better prepared for class, and learned significantly more than students who worked on their own."

Les Luxembourgeois et Internet - Analyse de l'utilisation des technologies de l'information au Luxembourg
Ce petit malheur a engendré la coupure de la connexion Internet de 90 % de la population arménienne. Car cette dame s'était tout simplement attaqué à une connexion Internet. Heureusement, au Luxembourg, il est moins facile d'atteindre un tel câble avec une simple pelle, la connexion Internet est donc assurée 24h/24. Qui sont ces internautes et pourquoi certains décident-ils de rester hors ligne ?

We all need to learn and benefit from Advanced Life Skills because all life skills are not created equal. Basic life skills are simply not enough.
I am convinced that billions of people feel trapped in a life full of limits and frustrations because they have never been taught the simple skills that have the power to transform almost every aspect of their current situation.
As a result, a life of personal excellence seems like an impossible dream for most. We can easily understand why so many people feel that way when we consider the scarcity of living examples. Most people see very little evidence that a life of extraordinary quality is even possible.

Shock of the new
If we want to understand the modern way we think about so-called “information overload” the best place to start is the 1970 book Future Shock by author and futurist Alvin Toffler.
In it, he said future shock is, “the dizzying disorientation brought on by the premature arrival of the future. It may well be the most important disease of tomorrow”.

Technology is not value-free. John Merrow explains how to turn kids — who are digital natives — into good digital citizens.
Schools today must provide opportunities for young people to create knowledge out of the swirling clouds of information that surround them 24/7. You went to school because that’s where the knowledge was stored. That was yesterday.
Think how different today’s world is. Today’s young people need guidance in sifting through the flood of information and turning it into knowledge.
They need to be able to formulate good questions — because computers have all the answers.

At the core of Visible Thinking are practices that help make thinking visible: Thinking Routines loosely guide learners' thought processes and encourage active processing. They are short, easy-to-learn mini-strategies that extend and deepen students' thinking and become part of the fabric of everyday classroom life.
Thinking Ideals are easily accessible concepts capturing naturally occurring goals, strivings or interests that often propel our thinking. Four Ideals -- Understanding, Truth, Fairness and Creativity -- are presented as modules on this site.
There are associated routines for each ideal and within each module there are activities that help deepen students' concepts around the ideal.

Google is not God, but the omnipresent search engine commands an unworldly level of trust from its followers.
If they’re naive at Googling, it’s because the ability to judge information is almost never taught in school. Under 2001′s No Child Left Behind Act, elementary and high schools focus on prepping their pupils for reading and math exams.
===> And by the time kids get to college, professors assume they already have this skill. <===

Procrastination is a state that has complex origins. It may be due:
In the fear of success (more pressure thereafter); In the “pleasure” of having the pressure; To protect against everything and everyone…; The lack of confidence (failure); The lack of motivation (goal too far away or unclear); And many others.
Though it is, she rots our existence, blocking our way and be happy in life.
As a repented procrastinator, I know what I mean.
Today I found, fortunately, some very effective tools to avoid mostly resorting to this vicious subterfuge.
Why we are procrastinators?
The reasons are many and complex. Without going into the medical maze (yes, it can happen in extreme situations), I’m just going talk from the level “light”, which affects many people and that everyone should be able to manage itself...
