Las instituciones educativas se someten a la necesidad de repensarse y replantearse, para hacer frente a los retos determinados por la sociedad de conocimiento, teniendo a la vez la responsabilidad de permitir que los sujetos encuentren un espacio de proyección hacia su futuro como masa crítica y capital humano, en una sociedad que cada día requiere mayores competencias en los sujetos, y que en muchas ocasiones está muy lejos de poder encontrar el camino idóneo para enfrentarse y dar solución o respuesta a todas esas demandas. La presente publicación reflexiona en torno al papel de las incorporación de las TIC en los sistemas educativos, considerando una serie de referentes teóricos y metodológicos que permitan explicar, de manera satisfactoria, la importancia pedagógica en el desarrollo de proyectos que implican el uso de TIC en el aula, teniendo como muestra o caso de estudio el Programa Enciclomedia, desarrollado en México durante los primeros años del siglo XXI.

La presente investigación responde a la pregunta ¿Qué recursos didácticos y herramientas tecnológicas intervienen en la motivación y en el autoaprendizaje dentro de un curso para docentes ofrecido bajo la modalidad educativa e-learning? Para dar respuesta a ella se utilizó el método cualitativo bajo un enfoque etnográfico holístico. Se aplicaron tres instrumentos los cuales corresponden a una entrevista, un test para conocer el nivel de motivación y un segundo test para conocer estilos de aprendizaje. Los resultados obtenidos indicaron que el utilizar, en un curso e-learning, las herramientas tecnológicas adecuadas así como los recursos didácticos necesarios motiva al participante a dirigirse hacia el autoaprendizaje. También se corroboró que la motivación intrínseca no es el único factor para que el participante se incline a realizar un curso e-learning, sino que su motivación puede provenir de factores externos, sin embargo, la motivación intrínseca es más duradera y permite al alumno mantenerla presente. Finalmente se puede corroborar que son tres factores los que inducen la motivación hacia el autoaprendizaje a través de un curso e-learning, conocer el estilo de aprendizaje del público al que va dirigido el curso, la motivación intrínseca y el uso de herramientas tecnológicas adecuadas y recursos didácticos necesarios, con estos factores básicos el curso e-learning puede cubrir sus funciones de enseñanza-aprendizaje y motivar al alumno.

This volume of essays from leading British, North American and Australasian contributors looks at the issues of the convergence of distance and conventional education. The term 'convergence' refers to the breaking down of barriers between open and distance learning and conventional institutions, and the creation of more and more institutions working across a range of modes. Such convergence has been driven by a number of factors, including the new technologies for teaching and learning, the impact of lifelong learning policies, the entry of larger than ever numbers of adult part-time students into tertiary education, and the demands of both employers and individuals for professional and work-related education throughout their working lives. The fourteen chapters engage critically with a range of aspects of convergence, including: * how well is open and distance learning carried out by conventional institutions for which it may continue for a lengthy period to be seen as of secondary importance? * to what extent will open and distance learning be more effectively carried out by conventional institutions able to offer a variety of modes to a wide range of learners? * how well will the variety of learners be served by systems that are converging? * what are the managerial issues at institutional level where converging systems are being developed?

Why is metacognition gaining recognition, both in education generally and in science learning in particular? What does metacognition contribute to the theory and practice of science learning? Metacognition in Science Education discusses emerging topics at the intersection of metacognition with the teaching and learning of science concepts, and with higher order thinking more generally. The book provides readers with a background on metacognition and analyses the latest developments in the field. It also gives an account of best-practice methodology. Expanding on the theoretical underpinnings of metacognition, and written by world leaders in metacognitive research, the chapters present cutting-edge studies on how various forms of metacognitive instruction enhance understanding and thinking in science classrooms. The editors strive for conceptual coherency in the various definitions of metacognition that appear in the book, and show that the study of metacognition is not an end in itself. Rather, it is integral to other important constructs, such as self-regulation, literacy, the teaching of thinking strategies, motivation, meta-strategies, conceptual understanding, reflection, and critical thinking. The book testifies to a growing recognition of the potential value of metacognition to science learning. It will motivate science educators in different educational contexts to incorporate this topic into their ongoing research and practice.

Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms. These groups exist so that people don't have to learn these things on their own, but ironically, their founders and instructors are often teaching themselves how to teach. There's a better way. This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.
