El profesor estadounidense David W. Johnson, referente mundial en aprendizaje cooperativo o en grupo, mantuvo ayer en Bilbao que el objetivo de este sistema educativo es “hacer más fuertes” como personas a los miembros del grupo. Johnson dio una conferencia sobre esta materia en la cuarta jornada de la Conferencia Internacional de Pensamiento ICOT (por sus siglas en inglés), el más importante congreso internacional sobre pensamiento e inteligencia en la educación, que concluye hoy en la capital vizcaina. El doctor en Psicología Social por la Universidad de Columbia (EE.UU.) y fundador, junto con su hermano Roger, del Centro de Aprendizaje Cooperativo de la Universidad de Minnesota, sostuvo que, en una clase, el profesor puede optar por uno de los tres sistemas educativos que hay: el competitivo, que busca destacar al mejor de la clase; el individual y el cooperativo. De todos ellos, afirmó, este último es el “más útil, más importante y más poderoso, si queremos que en una clase los alumnos sean activos, hablen, no estén callados y se relacionen entre ellos, en vez de estar desconectados”. “Los alumnos que cooperan entre sí en el aprendizaje hablan explicando lo que hacen, están activos y están conectados a sus compañeros”, sentenció.

The current study examined the effects of providing learning aids during a lecture on later test performance, and its relationship to structure-building ability. Before taking notes on an audio lecture, participants were either given a skeletal outline, an illustrative diagram, or no learning aid at all. After the lecture, participants were given a free recall test and a short-answer test that probed understanding of target concepts (requiring explanation). For low-ability structure builders, outlines improved free recall but not short-answer performance compared to the no-aid control condition. By contrast, providing high-ability structure builders with outlines improved free recall and short-answer performance (relative to the control). An illustrative diagram improved free recall and short-answer performance compared to the control condition, regardless of structure-building ability. Thus, these aids are generally useful for improving learning while listening to a lecture. Implications for the more specific enhancement patterns for low-ability structure builders are discussed.

Professional and personal development are important to many people. Professional development allows you to stay current in your field, make connections with likeminded professionals, and satisfy any continuing learning requirements your job may have. Personal development allows you to grow as a person, learn new skills, and try new things. Via Miloš Bajčetić

El uso del powerpoint es usado por la mayoría de profesores como un medio de sintetizar al máximo el contenido de su curso y reducirlo a algunas ideas fuerza, cuando para lo primero que debería servir es provocar la curiosidad y el interés del estudiante en forma de contenidos realmente impactantes que los lleven, de manera individual y/o colaborativa, a desarrollar ellos mismos esas ideas fuerza. Para ello el profesor debe elaborar la estrategia (el guión, el diseño instruccional) en el que se enmarque su powerpoint, de modo que sea él a través de diversos medios quien cree la atmósfera que provoque el interés del estudiante por aprender. No es nada sencillo, pues los profesores muchas veces por desidia otras por error terminamos otorgándole todo el peso de la estrategia docente al powerpoint
