«Making networked education happen»
Antonio Rodríguez de las HerasInstituto de Cultura y Tecnología de la UC3M
Abstract
Following the title of the IX eMadrid Conference, this presentation will consider what still maintains a gap between the technology that assists education and the people. Therefore, the importance of the “place” will be taken into account and the living experience that things and activities happen for the human being, and, therefore, the disorder that produces its absence. Next we will see methodological opportunities that technology also contains to “give place” to that which virtuality, the Net, deprives.
