NEW BLOGGERS

Do you remember the times when the idea of having a computer at home was science fiction? And what about text messaging or videoconference?
We may be familiar with new technologies or not, but we cannot ignore them. They are in our daily lives and we have to cope with them.
Now think, who has taught you to use a mobile phone, an ipod or a computer? What do you use them for? How have they changed your life? How often do you use your computer? What do you use the Internet for? Do you remember the time you first downloaded a song? Have you ever entered a chat room? and I could be adding more and more questions…
My “ICT-mentors” told me about this video and suggested a brilliant idea. It is about 21st century university students: how they learn, what they need to learn, their expectations for life, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime…
And this is your task: you watch it and give your opinion. You can use these questions as guidelines if you want: Is teaching up-to-date or is it still something from the old times? Are ICTs useful tools for students? How have ICTs changed teaching and learning? or any other ideas that cross your minds.
Then you write your conclusions in no more than 150 words and, needless to say, you post your comment here. After all, we are using the so-called “Information & Communication Technologies”, aren’t we?
Deadline to post your comment: 28th February

And as always, thank you CL and MV.
