LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS
With the incorporation of technology into our daily lives, the digital society is bombarded with multiple training opportunities with different learning environments beyond those of the formal educational system. Learning can be done at any time and at any place and can be accessed from any device. The proliferation of devices, platforms and social networks produces educational challenges in this era of constant change, digital identity and collaborative work. Technology enables us to acquire an evaluation not only at the end-product stage but throughout the process. Collecting all this information enables us to improve the learning processes.
Show moreIn order to make best use of this new context, innovative ideas are required that take into account a commitment to the ethical use and preparation of these resources and their contents. Innovation in the educational processes, repositories of contents, and personal learning environments are directed towards multimedia interactive tools and resources that allow for immersion.
Virtual learning spaces use advanced technology to provide a student-centred interactive learning experience. Learners create their own knowledge from the tools and resources available and with a strong social component.
The incorporation of technology into the teaching-learning process is often imposed from a merely technical perspective and has little pedagogical value. Teaching strategies, in accordance with learning objectives, should dictate which technology should be used. Training in the skills and competences of future professionals is generating new learning models based on the learning environment. Examples of these models are game-based learning, mobile learning, and project-based learning.
- Spaces: Digital interaction (virtual reality and augmented reality), digital games, social web/social media, cloud computing, mobile apps, MOOCS, PLE, LMS.
- Devices: Mobiles, tablets, laptops, computers, podcasts, videogame consoles, any electronic and digital device with connectivity.
