Abstract

It is by now common knowledge that one of the aspects upon which the survival of the University depends is how it will make the best possible use of the new technologies (e-learning). Despite the acceptance of this principle, difficulties arise when one attempts to proceed from the mere declaration to actually planning activities and putting them into effect. This research, the result of collaboration between teachers and researchers of the Educational Science and Engineering Faculties of the University of Florence, focuses on certain theoretical concepts and reference apparatus, bringing international literature to bear on the specific case of Italy.

Abstract

Les défis posés par l'avènement de l'informatique, les nouvelles structures de travail, les modifications dans l'exercice des rôles de parents et de citoyens exigent désormais d'apprendre autrement. De nouvelles pratiques s'imposent tant dans le monde de l'éducation que de la formation : approche par compétences, apprentissage par problèmes, contrat d'apprentissage, coaching, organisation apprenante, etc. Autant de termes neufs pour de nouvelles réalités dont le dénominateur commun est la nécessaire autonomie du sujet dans les apprentissages qu'il doit réaliser. Depuis les trente dernières années, des chercheurs se sont intéressés à l'étude de l'autoformation en relation avec l'éducation des jeunes, la formation en entreprise ou l'éducation populaire. Ce livre fait état de leurs principales découvertes en présentant : l'évolution du domaine d'étude de l'autoformation et les principaux courants de pensée qu'on y retrouve ; les principales caractéristiques d'une situation d'autoformation ; les compétences particulières à développer chez l'apprenant et chez le facilitateur (enseignant ou formateur) ; les tests et les questionnaires de diagnostic de l'autonomie dans l'apprentissage ; les méthodes qui sont souvent associées à des aspects de l'autoformation. Cet ouvrage intéressera les enseignants, les formateurs, les consultants en formation et les gestionnaires des ressources humaines pour qui l'autoformation constitue une manière souple, pertinente et accessible d'apprendre en toutes circonstances et à tous les âges.

Abstract

Designing for Learning in Networked Learning Environments is of interest to researchers and students, designers, educators, and industrial trainers across various disciplines including education, cognitive, social and educational psychology, didactics, computer science, linguistics and semiotics, speech communication, anthropology, sociology and design. Computer Support for Collaborative Learning (CSCL) is a genuinely interdisciplinary field that strives to create a better understanding of collaborative learning that is mediated by a diverse set of computational technologies. The theme of CSCL 2003 "Designing for Change in Networked Learning Environments" reflects a commitment to influence educational practice in times of the Internet. The contributions in this volume include discussions on knowledge building, designing and analysing group interaction, design of collaborative multimedia and 3D environments, computational modelling and analysis, software agents, and much more.
