Digital and open like a book - Il Sole 24 ORE
Teachers ask educational adaptable and often love to build their own guides to work, perhaps using the collaboration of students, according to the logic of Web 2.0 and user content generation. Moreover, the school, the quality, even before the advent of digital, wrote or rewrote their texts, it was a series of lecture notes, rather than actual volumes mimeographed and reproduced by hand.
The sixteenth edition of Educa Berlin conference, which took place precisely in Berlin last December, has placed great emphasis on the experiences of production and sharing of digital learning content for the school by a community of teachers. The case of Norway may be emblematic for public initiative was established in 2006, the Norwegian Digital Learning Arena ( Ndla ), a space where teachers in secondary school can share a variety of digital content published under Creative Commons license . An editorial staff, composed by his teachers, monitor and publish the material and implements changes based on feedback from users. The ability to deliver content and share it has recently also offered the students themselves. The largest publisher in Norway have tried to block the project that collects, however, very successful and has received the attention of the OECD in 2009 ("Beyond Textbooks - Digital Learning Resources as Systemic Innovation in the Nordic countries")
a few years old is also the initiative to Merlot, a collection of resources built and tested in accordance with the logic of peer reviewed journals. Collaborations individual, institutional partners and media groups can also participate in this exchange of digital texts organized by subject area, which has the main purpose of helping to build of a community interested in new technologies for teaching. We could also mention the Nation's online library for education and research in science, technology, engineering, mathematics dedicated to all activities related to science or even the best-known The Le @ rning Federation, which since 2001, by the will of the Australian Government is a point of reference for anyone involved in educational innovation. The intent declared by the Australian institution is to help the school "to take the path of the twenty-first century education and to implement digital education revolution .
is still difficult to define the nature dei testi che vi si trovano: con lo stesso termine si indica talvolta una semplice serie di schermate informative corredate di approfondimenti in linea o di java script, mentre in altri casi ci troviamo di fronte a veri e propri corsi che propongono allo studente percorsi formativi completi costituiti da approfondimenti, esercitazioni, lezioni registrate e anche servizi online in cui un docente (non virtuale) risponde ai quesiti posti. È questo il caso dei corsi proposti di recente dal Mit, accessibili e liberi per chiunque voglia seguirli senza la pretesa di nessun riconoscimento o attestato formale, un autoapprendimento nel senso più classico del termine. Per ora il Mit ne ha pubblicati cinque in versione beta. Essi rappresentano «un significativo nuovo approccio a risorse educative aperte e condivisibili. Denominati "Ocw scholar courses", questi materiali sono destinati fin dall'inizio ad allievi indipendenti che non hanno molte altre risorse disponibili». Il momento è propizio così per chi abbia voglia di riconsiderare la natura del testo di studio, così congeniale alle logiche del digitale. Perché a scuola si legge e scrive assieme ed è difficile pensare a una sostanziale cesura tra le due attività.
