Usages des technologies par les élèves professeurs : analyse à partir de questionnaires
2005
This article studies the appropriation and the uses of technologies by French student teachers. The methodology used is based on the analysis of answers to questionnaires submitted to the trainees of four “instituts universitaires de formation des maîtres” (teacher training schools). The results obtained tend to prove that outside the classroom trainee teachers are today well equipped and really competent as far as personal and professional uses of technologies are concerned. However, it appears that these skills are not taken advantage of in the presence of the pupils.
Technology-Supported Educational Innovations in Finland and Hong Kong: A Tale of Two Systems
2005
The paper presents a comparison of case studies about innovative ICT-supported pedagogical practices in two educational systems, namely Finland and Hong Kong. The two systems were selected for this in-depth comparison for three main reasons. First, Finland and Hong Kong performed well in several international comparative studies of educational achievement. Second, the case studies collected via the SITES Module 2 indicated rather different profiles between Finnish and Hong Kong schools in terms of ICT infrastructure and pedagogical practices. Third, further analysis of the case studies data indicated differences in emergent pedagogical characteristics between the cases collected in Asia and…
E-maintenance platform: a business process modelling approach
2014
Las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) se utilizan cada vez más en la sociedad y en los negocios. Las TIC se han convertido en un elemento clave para el desarrollo empresarial y la mejora de las actividades en todos los departamentos de una organización. Análogamente, la creciente importancia de los Sistemas de Gestión de Mantenimiento asistido por Ordenador (CMMS), Mantenimiento Basado en la Condición (CBM), y la aplicación de dispositivos remotos y funciones como el e-mantenimiento, han abierto grandes posibilidades para la optimización del mantenimiento. Estas técnicas han dado lugar a la aparición de retos tecnológicos, tales como la interoperabilidad entre diferentes…
Spaced learning and innovative teaching: school time, pedagogy of attention and learning awareness.
2016
AbstractCurrently, the ‘time’ variable has taken on the function of instructional and pedagogical innovation catalyst, after representing-over the years-a symbol of democratisation, learning opportunity and instruction quality, able to incorporate themes such as school dropout, personalisation and vocation into learning. Spaced Learning is a teaching methodology useful to quickly seize information in long-term memory based on a particular arrangement of the lesson time that comprises three input sessions and two intervals. Herein we refer to a teachers’ training initiative on Spaced Learning within the programme ‘DocentiInFormAzione’ in the EDOC@WORK3.0 Project in Apulia region in 2015. The…
Neo Open Innovation in the Digital Economy : Harnessing Soft Innovation Resources
2018
Successive increases in R&D that creates new functionality are essential for global competitiveness. However, unexpectedly, as a consequence of the two-faced nature of information and communication technology (ICT), excessive R&D results in a marginal productivity decline leading to a decrease in digital value creation. In order to overcome such a dilemma, global ICT firms have been endeavoring to transform themselves into disruptive business model. Neo open innovation that harnesses soft innovation resources may be a solution to this critical question. On the basis of an empirical analysis focusing on forefront endeavors to this dilemma by global ICT firms, this paper attempted to demonstr…
L'ordinateur, outil de productivité de l'enseignant quelle formation initiale en IUFM ?
1992
Les nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication – audiovisuel, informatique et télématique – ont connu depuis trente ans en France de grandes actions de mise en oeuvre dans l'enseignement : radio-télévision scolaire, Jeune Téléspectateur Actif, expérimentation « 58 lycées », plan « 10 000 micros », expérimentation « 84 collèges », plan « 100 000 micros », plan IPT, opération « vidéo collège »...Les avancées technologiques de ces dernières années ont favorisé l'évolution des pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants. On est passé progressivement de pratiques indépendantes et isolées de l'informatique, de la télématique et de l'audio visuel à une utilisation combinée qui conce…
Robotization of Mobile Communication
2020
The aim of this chapter is to systematize the discussion regarding robotization of mobile communication. The chapter begins by clarifying the fundamental role of both robot hardware and robot software in this process. This is followed by a critical overview of existing research, which is classified into three categories. First, robotization is understood as the hybridization of the human body with existing ordinary mobile devices. Second, the incorporation of new robotic software, such as algorithms, artificial intelligence, and virtual assistants, into mobile devices is seen to robotize them from inside. Third, the convergence of smart communication devices, typically as user interfaces wi…
Advances of Research in Education and ICT in Hospital Classrooms
2017
Últimamente ha proliferado la utilización de aplicaciones didácticas digitales en torno a la educación del alumnado convaleciente. No obstante, son escasos los trabajos que han estudiado de forma global las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) y sus materiales en las aulas hospitalarias (AH). Desde ese punto de vista, hemos realizado un análisis de los avances alcanzados en las investigaciones desarrolladas sobre experiencias educativas, evaluando el impacto de las TIC y comprobando que el alumnado hospitalizado puede conectarse con la comunidad educativa y su entorno. La metodología llevada a cabo ha sido la revisión bibliográfica que nos ha permitido organizar, clasificar…

Projection of the Flipped Learning Methodology in the Teaching Staff of Cross-Border Contexts
2019
Technological impact and immigration have resulted in ICT playing a significant role in educational adaptation to multicultural environments. This study focuses on flipped learning as an innovative teaching method. The overall objectives of this research are, on the one hand, to carry out a review of the scientific literature about flipped learning, and, on the other hand, to know the extent of its scope amongst teaching staff in cross-border regions. To achieve these objectives, a quantitative method has been developed through a descriptive model. 316 teachers from different educational centres of the Spanish Autonomous City of Ceuta (Spain) were selected as a sample, and an ad hoc questio…
