Marietje SCHAAKE:
A large majority of the European Parliament today endorsed the first ever Digital Freedom Strategy in the EU’s foreign policy. I’m very happy with the wide support my report received.... “The Parliament unequivocally acknowledges that digital freedoms, like uncensored access to the internet, are fundamental rights which deserve equal protection as traditional human rights. I have set out a number of concrete points of action to be incorporated in the EU’s trade and development policies. New technologies bring huge opportunities, but people can only really enjoy them if we also tackle the threats emerging from the rise of ICTs, for example by authoritarian regimes.” Read more: http://www.marietjeschaake.eu/2012/12/european-parliament-endorses-first-ever-digital-freedom-strategy/ Via Gust MEES

Très sollicitées pour mettre en avant les chiffres clefs d’une études, les principales tendances d’un marché, elles sont utilisées par un panel d’acteurs : agences, cabinet d’études, blogueurs, médias, etc.

A study in 1985 “On the Brain of a Scientist: Albert Einstein” found that Einstein’s brain was actually not significantly different from others. As an Organization Development blogger put it:
===> what made Einstein different was his mind. <===

Do you know the actual theories of learning? A learning theory is an attempt to describe how people learn, helping us understand this inherently complex process. Via Gust MEES

Jacques Cool : Regroupé en cinq sections, je débute par une description sommaire du monde hyperconnecté dans lequel on vit; le monde a bien changé. Par après, le mobile, les tablettes et l’identité numérique interpelle surtout l’individu dans ce monde hyperconnecté. Et l’enseignement dans tout cela ? Mais les contraintes systémiques, elles ? Des questions de fond sur lesquelles j’offre quelques perspectives et points de vue. On chemine inévitablement vers le dernier bloc, Se mettre en réseau = éviter l’isolement professionnel, qui se veut en quelque sorte un appel pour que ces futurs enseignantes et enseignants puissent grandir professionnellement par la force du réseau qu’ils/elles auront su tisser avec une communauté professionnelle qui s’étend bien au-delà des murs de leur institution d’éducation. Ce seront leur élèves qui seront les premiers bénéficiaires! Via Marcel Lebrun

Assistant Professor of Education at Michigan State University, Christine Greenhow, conducted a study titled “Twitteracy: Tweeting is a New Literary Practice.” In it, she found that college students who tweet as part of their instruction are more engaged with the course content, the teacher, other students, and they have higher grades.
“Tweeting can be thought of as a new literary practice,” said Greenhow, who also studies the growing use of social media among high-schoolers. “It’s changing the way we experience what we read and what we write.” “The students get more engaged because they feel it is connected to something real, that it’s not just learning for the sake of learning,” Greenhow said. “It feels authentic to them.”
“One of the ways we judge whether something is a new literary form or a new form of communication is whether it makes new social acts possible that weren’t possible before,” Greenhow said. “Has Twitter changed social practices and the way we communicate? I would say it has.”
===> The study appears in the research journal Educational Forum. <===

TWITTER TRANSFORMS EDUCATORS
Enter Twitter. I've heard many educators say that Twitter is the most effective way to collaborate and that they've learned more with Twitter than they have from years of formal professional development.
Here are some of the specific ways educators are using Twitter to collaborate:

Twitter provides a great opportunity to collaborate with educators outside of your local physical community. The exchange of ideas and perspectives can reenergize your career. “Twitter is often just the introduction — the virtual handshake that opens the door to a deeper collaboration”
