Improving Teaching And Learning

En el siguiente documento se presenta el diseño de una plataforma educativa de herramientas y temas de salud para el ciudadano, realizado por la filial mexicana de la empresa Compax, la cual trabaja en proyectos de centros comunitarios digitales, para su conversión posterior en ciberescuelas. Con el objetivo de ser un elemento transformador de la sociedad ante un entorno cambiante, donde la aplicación de Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) en la Educación, se presenta como una oportunidad para promover el aprendizaje y mejorar la enseñanza en el marco del desarrollo de comunidades de aprendizaje virtuales. En este contexto la animación digital juega un papel muy importante, al tener el poder de atrapar la atención de una persona, ayudando a generar interés en temas poco atractivos –como la prevención en la salud- así como ayudándole a entender ideas complejas más fácilmente. The present document thus presents the design of an educational platform of tools and issues relating to the importance of health care to the common people, undertaken in the Mexican company Compax, which develops digital community centers projects, for the subsequent conversion into e-Schools. This for the purpose of being an active element in society, facing a rapidly changing environment where implementation of information and communications technologies in education presents itself as an opportunity for improving teaching and learning within the framework of virtual learning communities. In this context, Digital Animation plays a key role to catch the attention of the people, helping to generate interest on topics considered particularly neither attractive nor unattractive –such as public health prevention- therefore helping to understand ideas that are far more complex.

Typical characteristics of Master’s-level education usefully complement the development of professional attributes leading to improved outcomes for those professions. These include critical reflection on one’s own practice, scholarship and research, and also that of others. This requires access to and engagement with a well organised and verified corpus of research-based evidence to support improved practice and scholarship. Taking an interdisciplinary approach from the viewpoints of the teaching and midwifery professions, we argue that access to well-designed Master’s-level curricula should form the basis of initial and continuing professional development for all professional practitioners, and that these curricula should be informed by research and linked directly to practice. Additionally, we propose that information and communications technologies, including social media, should better be used to facilitate access to both Master’s-level education and its underpinning evidence bases, thereby enabling continuous updating and enhancement activities to be accessible to busy professionals. If these three recommendations were to be adopted, we are convinced there would be value for the professionals themselves and, in turn, for the people they serve.

Universally, information and communications technologies (ICTs) have revolutionised multiple ways of executing tasks in many sectors. In the education sector, ICTs provide a scaffold to enhance technology-driven teaching and learning information needs of the teachers and learners in a school environment. The aim of the study was to investigate the availability and use of ICTs in library facilities in primary schools in disadvantaged rural communities in Limpopo province, South Africa. The study targeted all 18 primary schools in Lebopo Circuit of Mankweng Cluster. Self-administered questionnaires were used to collect data from teacher-librarians who attended a school library workshop at a local high school. Purposive sampling was employed in the selection of the teacher-librarians and all 18 schools were represented by one teacher-librarian. The findings indicate that there are few ICTs used by the teachers to enhance teaching and learning in different library facilities in disadvantaged rural schools. The study recommends that additional ICTs should be procured by the Department of Basic Education (DBE) for distribution to all schools to mitigate technology-driven information needs of teachers and learners. Furthermore, as vandalism was cited as a challenge in all schools, security needs upgrading to protect the few available ICTs.

In recent years, the landscapes of teaching and learning has changed because of the utilization of information and communications technologies. In this context, the most illustrative innovations are Learning Management Systems (LMS) and Personal Learning Environments (PLEs). Despite of the LMS and PLEs popularity in ed-ucational contexts as well as the expand set of tools and services that they offer to learners and teachers; they are still in fancy stages. In order to present the challenges Personal Learning Environments were presented; however, it is obvious that PLEs will not replace LMS. Therefore, both types of environments should coexist and interact. In this manner, the current study took teachers’ perspective on integrating the third generation LMS into PLEs. In addition, this study conducted to find out the teachers’ perspective on how the LMS could enhance PLEs in terms of planning before applying the PLE's; designing a framework in the PLE’s; imple-menting the PLEs; interacting in PLEs; managing the learning process through the PLEs and utilizing technolo-gy in PLEs. The participants of the study were 575 teachers who were selected randomly from Saudi Arabia schools. The findings of this study found that teachers must apply a positive teaching approach, holding that knowledge is composed upon student-to-student interaction as well as student-to-teacher interaction. Further-more, this study revealed that teachers must enterprise, deliver, and support K-12 online learning.

The applications of information and communications technologies (ICT) have become an important instrument of education nowadays. Besides being as tools for presentation and communication, there are many more ICT tools that could help the teaching and learning process. In the field of hadith (Prophetic tradition), there are many ICT applications that have been developed. The applications were developed mainly to ease the Muslim to get close and comprehend their second primary source of religion legislation which is their Prophet's hadith. The functions of the applications were rapidly upgraded besides its ability to digitizing the resources, it can store huge amount of data, facilitate quick access to databases, analyze and classify the data simultaneously. Thus, this study tries to look over the integration of the applications in the study of hadith in Malaysian public universities whether it being exposed, integrated or consolidated. Moreover, this study also tries to ponder over the lecturers’ perception, acknowledgment, skill level as well as the barriers hindered the integration of the applications. The findings of this study are most Malaysian public universities lecturer are skillful at using applications related hadith, most of them accepted the new technology well and integrated it into their teaching and there is no barrier of integrating ICT at their institution. Instead, their institutions offered full support for the integration. However, there is some disagreement from some lecturer for the full integration of ICT in the study of hadith for their opinion that the study of hadith must persevere its traditional method of teaching.

Students’ early exposure to the fundamentals of business and Information and Communications Technologies (ICT), creation of a professional skill base, as well as, the gaining of practical experience in applying such knowledge and skills, are the determinants of success in their study and development as Information Systems (IS) professionals. This chapter argues that e-simulations, or computer-based and online simulations, can be effectively used to engage learners in interactive learning activities and provide them with real world practical experience in the safety of an educational setting. A research project is subsequently described. A suite of e-simulations were developed and deployed across two institutions to support teaching and learning of Information Systems. Using staff discussions and online surveys, quantitative and qualitative data were collected from the staff and students. The collected data were then analysed to evaluate and guide a sequence of curriculum and technology changes with a view to arriving at an optimum support model for students and teachers using the e-simulations. The findings of the study emphasise the usefulness of e-simulations to accommodate the learning styles of generation Y students, to stimulate their interest and creative thinking, and in meeting industry expectations of IS graduates’ ability to fulfil professional roles. Based on these insights, in its concluding remarks, the chapter outlines a conceptual framework for the inclusion of e-simulations in Information Systems curriculum development and teaching delivery.
