Entrevistado por Beatriz Hernández en 8 Magazine. Volaron los minutos hablando de Innovación Docente en la Universidad de Valladolid, y sus últimos años de historia. Luego comentamos algunos ejemplos y finalmente entramos en detalle en algunas actividades del proyecto Immunomedia.
Project-based learning continues to be misinterpreted as a single teaching strategy rather than as a set of design principles that allow us to introduce the philosophy of inquiry into education in an...
Alfredo Corell's insight:
If PBL is to become a powerful, accepted model of instruction in the future, a vocabulary change may be in order — preferably to the term project based inquiry. It’s time to not only address the flaws in PBL, but to reinvent it in a way that leads to deeper learning, creative inquiry, and a better fit with a collaborative world in which doing and knowing are one thing. Here are thoughts about five areas in which PBL needs to move forward.
Online Education as an Agent of Transformation New York Times WHEN the first commercially successful steamship traveled the Hudson River in 1807, it didn't appear to be much of a competitive threat to transoceanic sailing ships.

Here’s a list of blogs that feed my teaching soul, hunger for knowledge, and need for deeper insights into teaching, learning and writing. There are so many wonderful blogs that it’s impossible to list them all here, so I’m listing the ones that have been most relevant to my own professional development. As such, they should be relevant to any teacher who wants to turn online teaching and/or publishing into a fully-fledged career.
I am making my way through these but am excited about the content I am finding here. What did educators ever do with all this wisdom before we had the place to make it heard? How wondrous that we can each become an expert and a motivator in our field!

"Utopian visions of learning are tempting, if for no other reason than they absolve us of accountability to create it right now, leading to nebulous romanticizing about how powerful learning could be if we just did more of X and Y. But therein lies the rub: Tomorrow’s learning is already available, and below are 7 of the most compelling and powerful trends, concepts, and resources that represent its promise."
Brainstorming is sometimes a spur-of-the-moment activity. Arguably, the best tool for generating ideas remains the humble pen and paper. Again arguably, the second best tools are mobile phones and tablets.

No cabe duda de la gran utilidad que representan los mapas conceptuales, la panoramica que muestra sobre un tema especifico permite simplificar y direccionar efectivamente el pensamiento y la capacidad de respuesta, excelente ejemplo.
HOla!! Interesante mapa de conceptos. Pero me parece que hay ue diferenciar que la modalidad de learnig class NO ES E-LEARNING es you learning porque es en intranet. Los alumnos no encuentran esas aulas virtuales de manera ubicua.
100 EFFECTIVE PROJECTS TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL (STEM) CAREERS
Alfredo Corell's insight:
This report, Top-100 Educational Innovations, presents the results of the Education Challenge project. This is an extensive research project that Fundación Telefónica has conducted throughout the year to identify innovative educational initiatives, that is to say, innovative projects which nevertheless have proven results in the field of science education as a whole. Initiatives that are considered to have the greatest potential for development will be presented, and brief but useful and systematic information will be offered for each of them. We are confident that these results will be a tool that allows the dissemination of knowledge that we consider to be of great value to the entire educational community and society in general.
What if teachers embraced the idea of transparency as a form of activism, a way of shining light on what works in the classroom? [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more!
Alfredo Corell's insight:
One way to promote change is to allow the outside world to see inside innovative classrooms, hold up positive narratives and be sure everyone knows the consequences of seemingly distant policy decisions.
Upplication es el resultado de once meses de desarrollo de un creador de apps con el que cualquier negocio puede tener su propia app de manera rápida y sencilla, sin necesidad de tener conocimientos de programación.
Si WordPress fue la herramienta definitiva para la democratización de las webs, Upplication llega con la misma intención pero enfocada a las aplicaciones móviles tal y como nos cuenta Víctor Rodado, uno de sus fundadores.

Un dato importantísimo a conocer es el Eurobarómetro (2007) indica que España es, tras Bélgica y Lituania, el tercer país con mayor porcentaje de población que nunca se ha planteado la posibilidad de iniciar un negocio propio
In this post someone is sharing with us an excellent evaluation rubric for iPad applications . It is in the iPad rubrics section in Educational Technology and Mobile Learning.

Alex Rister: "Storytelling for Presentations" was a short lesson I developed for my online Professional Communication and Presentation course. How do you teach storytelling
This presentations clearly explains what makes a good story - you need to devise conflict, develop characters and add efficient details. I enjoy this presentation because it explains the details of storywriting with a variety of interesting visuals, which makes it more entertaining to read.
Excerpted from this long and useful article by ProBlogger about Pinterest: "I believe that blogs in any niche, not just DIY crafty blogs, are missing out on huge amounts of traffic and exposure if they are ignoring Pinterest. If you want to see your blog grow in leaps and bounds in 2013, you’ve got to pay attention to Pinterest.
I want to make sure that you fully understand the power of Pinterest, I’m going to start with the very basics before digging into the good stuff that will get you the blog success you’re looking for. At least read through the basics and info about using Pinterest accounts so that you have a better understanding of what’s going on and how to apply that to your blog.
Here’s what I’m going to cover: - What is Pinterest? - Why care about Pinterest? - Basics of using Pinterest. - Strategies for using your Pinterest account. - Get your pins maximum exposure. - Get more traffic to your blog using Pinterest. - Pinterest tools for bloggers."
Pinterest is a Social Media powerhouse. It takes a bit of work to keep up with PinEtiquette but it is well worth it. We are up to 5 repins and 5-10 Likes or Board follows a day and growing. There is Powere in those Pins!!
Piktochart is easy to work with and creates a fair Infographic. I still prefer to hire an art director. It's worth the money to have an intelligent designer with you :-)
