What So Psychologists Make

Internet, beyond the "materialism" teaching Digital Delivery

Normally when we talk about Internet, we are certain to discuss teaching materials or school furniture. But the Internet, besides being an artifact, a tool or an instrument of the Network Society, set up an educational environment, ie a large scale that accommodates the subject and the set of actions and interactions that affect their learning while building their identity as person. Therefore, Internet use is not to add new educational material, using the Internet is to deploy actions in a social, cultural and technologically enriched.

me explain. When we think about the educational use of Internet-on education with ICT or eLearning-opens an array of relentless questions: why learn?, What to learn?, How to learn, how to learn?, " how well do they learn?, when do you learn? or with whom to learn? (This last I will later), but the question where to learn? -rarely claimed the world face by its "invisibility" as it is assumed per se physical place with Internet acquires another dimension, a non-place, a new scope to learn, think, do and feel. Beyond

see the Internet as a sophisticated educational materials must be understood as an authentic environment where we stayed for learning and teaching. So when we wonder where to learn? the response that we raise the Internet is not teaching material, the response that the Internet offers is the handling of technologically enriched environment for learning. And this we have many examples, such as videos that can be seen below.

With the previous insistence borders are not looking code and put flags virtual territory, or education, but educational attention on the educational opportunities it offers us understand the Internet as an environment, and thinking about education from this condition, beyond the concept of material wealth didáctico.La is that in these virtual environments are not only things or objects, people moving, talking, cooperating, playing, discussing, doing ... Major reason to understand that it is not material.

Where is the courage to think the Internet as a learning environment? Taking Internet as an environment is to understand that the Internet is part of the explanation and learning development. In research we do to understand what added the technological component virtual cooperative learning, it was concluded, roughly, that "the virtual technology, by modulating the flow of interaction as an asynchronous communication system in writing, added to the basic form cooperation an array of temporal and spatial representation from which students reshape their opportunities and strategies at the time of learning in virtual training team. " In other research that sought to analyze the spatial character ¬ virtua environments of learning will "demonstrate the presence and sense space in the use of new technologies on the basis of precisely the type of use or activity that takes place there. "

therefore act must not forget that the Internet is to act on the internet and therefore defined or enhanced by the characteristics, handling and feeling of immersion that configures the virtual environment . When we are learning and teaching with the Internet we are acting with all the warp sociotechnológical that means being housed in virtuality.

As an example of what I argue here some examples where you can see what people do in these environments
