Incorporating the new technologies into the classroom, would integrate students with different paces, learning styles, and allow teacher quality time being tutors or monitors of the students' autonomous learning. I don't see it restrictive to the higher social classes , at least in my country, it may need some extra work from the teacher, but it is totally possible and worthwhile, both for the teacher and the student .

I  agree with Mitch Resnick of MIT Media Lab and Professor Richard Noss , TEL Research Program at tel.ac.uk, maybe the the new literacy is teaching children to code. The students will be able to develop the abilities of designing, creating, programming, codding , discover etc , that will empower them with  higher order cognitive thinking abilities .

TEACHERS : Do not be scared of the machines ! Use them wisely . Know your students' interests , be creative, innovative, be fun !

"Technology, like art, is a soaring exercise of the human imagination. Art is the aesthetic ordering of experience to express meanings in symbolic terms, and the reordering of nature—the qualities of space and time—in new perceptual and material form. Art is an end in itself; its values are intrinsic. Technology is the instrumental ordering of human experience within a logic of efficient means, and the direction of nature to use its powers for material gain. But art and technology are not separate realms walled off from each other. Art employs techne, but for its own ends. Techne, too, is a form of art that bridges culture and social structure, and in the process reshapes both_Daniel Bell " Read more at http://quotes.dictionary.com/technology_like_art_is_a_soaring_exercise_of#57fwJlFd3SSgSFD8.99

My favorite films are mostly Dystopian, I believe in a change or in a digitalized education, but I don't like the idea of trans-humanism in our society as a whole. My idea of enhancement is human enlightenment, reaching your higher natural potencial in harmony with the world that surround us. Remember that with great power comes great responsibility and the way I see the world today, we have not been very responsible, and that ...scares me .

I am a teacher of English. Coordinator of the English

Pedagogy Program at UST, Chile.

I believe in Humanistic Technology. Teaching is an art and I like to integrate the new technologies to the teaching -learning experience without quitting on what pedagogy really means.

My work experience range from primary, secondary to higher education. I hope this artefact or the other creations I have posted are useful, they represent how engaged I have been in this great course,and how much I have learnt from the edcmooc team, and from my classmates in all the different platforms.

Please, feel welcome to leave some feedback on the comment section to the right, or on any of my other sites.

Thank you,

My reflections

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This week I am head over heels with technology no matter what anybody says .
My laptop went black last week and I thought I had lost everything , actually two technicians told me it was gone for good, I was in shock !!
Somehow someone I am happy to have in my life , did the impossible , he fixed it !! He recovered my information and backed it up, and believe me, I had a lot !
Although I had " my precious" back , not all was solved . As many of you, or maybe not, I have everything personalised and all my accounts are opened automatically : Facebook, Flickr, IGoogle, Netflix, hotmail, yahoo mail, gmail, Skype, LiveBinder,blogger, my bank accounts, etc , I know, I know ...I need to know and remember my passwords, but I have so many, that I just allow my laptop to remember them for me, much easier , right ? So, I panicked !! but thanks God for the Internet , all those 500 bookmarks were recovered ( I rarely go back to them ) , my Igoogle account gave me access to my YouTube channel, to my Gmail, Google+, and to my Blog. The websites I DO use, were all in my LiveBinder, and the passwords for all my email accounts were recovered by only remembering one password.
I had to struggle to set all my system and my IGoogle and search in English ( my native tongue is Spanish ), but I finally managed to. Now , the order has been restored !!
Considering all this, my job and my studies, I haven't been online much , yes guilty as charged ...now, sorry for the deviation.

Well, now focusing on the question of this week , I think that we talk a lot about technologies, we are plenty of tools and resources that we can categorised as Web 2.0, but we should focus more on the methodology ,how are we going to use them with a pedagogical objective. Somehow, just present the tools to our students is not enough, we need to instruct them of to use it and what for.

I remember some Laboratory classes in which the teacher only uses the lab to keep the students entertained but no methodology or objective whatsoever !

Considering that my students are teachers to be, I think , and I am trying to answer the question now, that one of the best tools I can use with them is a blog/ Padlet. My students are fourth year students of English Pedagogy. I have been trying to develop critical thinking with them by using Ted Talks and workshops, then they work and discuss in groups, analyse certain topics, they think globally, and then locally, share ideas ,they work cooperatively and at the same time, I have asked them to keep a Padlet with the topics seen in class.

Student Padlet Example

So, basically, in my case I would choose tools that promote creativity , evaluation, creation, reflexion and autonomous learning. I have been using Padlet, as most of my students happen to be visual , but as you can see , they can add whatever content they feel like and in the way they want. Padlet is free and easy to use.
