The Curriculum of Everything: Understanding education and curriculum
“The Curriculum of Everything advances as the eternal future in which artificial intelligence surpasses the human capacity to do but not that of understanding and feeling.” Now even the “father” of Artificial Intelligence worries even those bedrocks of being – understanding and feeling - may be at risk. Pacheco reminds us that “curriculum study is a normative question,” now necessarily “with its technological dimension.” Then in a stunningly synoptic sentence that students could usefully study all semester, he summarizes: “the curriculum as a socially, culturally, ideologically, politically and economically constructed practice, is a formal and informal dispositive of int...

Blended (e)Learning na Sociedade Digital
A tecnologia sozinha não muda a prática escolar. Para maximizar os benefícios da inovação tecnológica importa alterar a forma como se pensa a educação. É este mix de uma sociedade presencial e virtual que nos conduz ao conceito de blended-learning. (...) É impossível imaginar uma aprendizagem “unblended”, pois a questão não é se devemos combinar mas como combinar, que exige uma reengenharia dos processos de aprendizagem e mudanças culturais, nas instituições e nos atores. Esta é a visão blended, uma visão disruptiva, que projeta a realidade de um caminho nem sempre fácil de percorrer. É neste contexto de blended-learning que esta obra encontra o seu espaço e se perfaz de um valor precioso e único, num real contributo para o necessário esforço analítico da atual realidade, com diferentes formas, ritmos e escalas.
