Metabolaspel
Leer spelenderwijs alles over celmetabolisme. Dit spel wordt ‘online’ via de browser gespeeld, in principe door twee teams, elk met een anabole (opbouw) opdracht en een katabole (afbraak) opdracht. Speel dit spel vaker met verschillende deelnemers en in verschillende rollen waardoor uw inzicht in celmetabolisme voelbaar wordt, ook voor de mede- en tegenspelers. Het spel heeft een ingebouwde chat-functie.

Applied research is made possibly by a strong base of practical skills (in, for example, film production, drawing, graphic design, tangible interface design, media production, multimedia authoring, narrative writing or game design). The group is conducting a series of seminars, workshops and master-classes. They run every fortnight, since January 2010, with visiting speakers from industry and academic circles. To-date, the series has addressed the following areas: decision making and game theory, visual design, multimedia consultancy, graphic design, e-learning, and citizen democracy.
ENVI GAME
Školní výuka Průřezového tématu Environmentální výchova (PT EV) prostřednictvím kombinovaného programu ve škole i mimo školu s využitím multimediálních i mobilních technologií.
Environmentální výchovu lze realizovat prostřednictvím hry
Cílem projektu ENVI GAME je vytvoření vzdělávacích programů pro praktickou realizaci Průřezového tématu Environmentální výchova (PT EV). Výukové programy budou zahrnovat sady her a metodické pomůcky, které budou použitelné v různých předmětech jako je např. zeměpis, přírodopis, dějepis. Výuka PT EV bude kombinací práce dětí v terénu a aktivit ve třídě s možností využití počítače, multifunkčního mobilního telefonu s GPS s tím, že bude možné hrát hru přes internetovou platformu pro zvýšení herní interaktivity. Do projektu bude zapojeno deset žákovských týmů ze základních škol z různých krajů České republiky. Celkem se jedná asi o 250 žáku, kteří budou hry prakticky ověřovat (pilotovat).
Výstupem projektu bude šest výukových programů zaměřených na průřezová témata jako je obec, občan a jeho vztah k okolí. Jednotlivé regiony budou žákovskými týmy mapovány z hlediska biodiverzity druhové i ekosystémové, z pohledu kulturního a historického dědictví, využívání přírodních zdrojů, zdraví a životního stylu. Ve spolupráci s Výzkumným ústavem pedagogickým Praha a s občanským sdružením Klub ekologické výchovy bude vytvořena metodika, jejíž součástí budou praktické příklady výukových programů. Využití vytvořených produktů na dalších školách regionů České republiky bude zajištěno pořádáním krajských vzdělávacích seminářů.
Projekt je realizován společností Cross Czech a. s. ve spolupráci se dvěma partnery – Klubem ekologické výchovy, o.s. a Výzkumným ústavem pedagogickým v Praze. Projekt byl zahájen 11. listopadu 2009 a bude trvat 36 měsíců.

ED-MEDIA 2011-World Conference on Educational Multimedia, Hypermedia & Telecommunications
ED-MEDIA - World Conference on Educational Multimedia, Hypermedia & Telecommunications is an international conference, organized by the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE).
This annual conference serves as a multi-disciplinary forum for the discussion and exchange of information on the research, development, and applications on all topics related to multimedia, hypermedia and telecommunications/distance education.
digital-earth.eu
The digital-earth.eu project examines the use of geographic media in schools and teacher education.
Geo-media is the visualisation of information from different media sources and is concerned with digital content and its processing based on place, position and location. Many geographic media are widely used for navigation and routing purposes. Cartographic communication has never been so easy to implement, therefore 21st century school education needs to include geo-media into daily work. Innovative approaches to teaching and learning are needed to study environments from local to global scale.
The digital-earth.eu network links innovative centres around Europe where geo-media use is well developed. Products, resources, experiences and ideas are shared between the centres and opened to the public wherever possible.
A digital-earth.eu infrastructure is under development. The European Centre and an accredited network of national and regional Centres of Excellence are developing an online catalogue of materials, courses, publications, links and good practice scenarios, and are publishing a series of core publications.
The digital-earth.eu network project is a Comenius Multilateral Network (2010-2013). It complements the activities of two previous Comenius Multilateral Projects (GISAS and iGuess) that used specific GIS software and produced teaching materials for schools and training courses for teachers.
The digital-earth.eu network seeks to provide broad access to resources (Europe-wide and international), promoting innovation and best practice in the implementation of geo-media as a digital learning environment for school learning and teaching. The goal is to raise the profile of learning with digital geo-media. The network encourages the sharing of innovative practices and rewards organisations and individuals displaying ‘excellence’.
Mediawijs? Bewijs het maar groep 7!
TV, internet, social media, gaming. De mogelijkheden die media bieden zijn grenzeloos. Kinderen zijn er dagelijks uren mee bezig. Maar weten ze wel hoe media werken? Wat ze er allemaal mee kunnen en wat de risico's zijn? Daarom introduceert Mediawijzer.net het spel: MediaMasters.
Een super spannend, levensecht spel dat in de klas en in de media wordt gespeeld. Waarbij leerlingen moeten overleggen, samenwerken, zelf media maken en inzicht hebben in wat er speelt. En bewust omgaan met vragen als: wat is echt en wat niet? Is iedereen te vertrouwen? Wat vertel je over jezelf? Alle leerlingen laten zien hoe mediawijs ze zijn en ontvangen na afloop hun officiële Media Master.
MediaMasters2011 vindt plaats in de Week van de Mediawijsheid van 21 t/m 27 november 2011. Tijdens deze week vinden in samenwerking met de openbare bibliotheken activiteiten plaats om burgers en instellingen wegwijs te maken in het gebruik van verschillende media, met het accent op digitale media.
Aanmelden
Scholen kunnen zich aanmelden via http://www.mediamasters2011.nl/. Het spel neemt per lesdag ongeveer één uur in beslag. Aan het spel zijn voor scholen geen kosten verbonden.

International Conference on Digital Storytelling
Digital storytelling combines the longstanding art of telling stories with any of a variety of available multimedia tools, including graphics, audio, video animation, and Web publishing. It has become both an educational and a cultural phenomenon which has certainly given a new dimension to the art of storytelling. Digital Storytelling is currently being used in more than 80 countries with many different applications, including education, marketing, and self-expression, among others.
In this conference we hope to gather here in Valencia those who want to share and explore these new pedagogical/socio-cultural dimensions of digital storytelling as well as learn how the use of technology has helped transform the whole experience of storytelling into something more personal and within everyone’s reach.

Interview with Jose Pessanha. European Commission - DG Education and Culture
Going back to the past and recalling the specific atmosphere of those years, what were the challenges that you wanted to address through the eLearning programme?
The overall objective of the eLearning programme was to "support and develop further the effective use of ICT in European education and training systems", which should constitute a crucial factor of "their adaptation to the needs of the knowledge society in a lifelong learning context". Under this framework, the programme addressed essentially the contribution of ICT in lifelong learning through the promotion of digital literacy, in particular for those with poor or no access to the technologies, the promotion of virtual mobility in higher education, the support to a Europe wide school networking scheme, including the training of teachers, and the dissemination, promotion and transfer of good and innovative practices of ICT use in education and training.
As underlying dimensions we can mention the contribution of ICT to strengthen social cohesion, to enhance the European dimension in education and to support the development of innovative teaching methods.
What do you think was particularly successful about the programme?
Although the programme was in general quite successful and cost-effective, I would put a very special emphasis on eTwinning, which is still a major ongoing European initiative in the field of school networking, supporting the exchange of innovative teaching methods and contributing to students' virtual mobility and teachers' professional development.The programme also successfully enhanced the European dimension in education and promoted co-operation between stakeholders in e-learning, for example in the fields of quality and open resources.
What are the most important lessons learnt?
The design and successful implementation of eTwinning, including the effectiveness of its funding model, demonstrates the potential of ICT to support innovative learning experiences, which would not be possible otherwise. It also shows the importance of integrating ICT in a coherent pedagogical project addressing clear needs and with the allocation of appropriate content and technical resources.
What are in your view the main challenges for the future of ICT in learning?
In my opinion the main challenge now is the full integration of ICT in education and training, both as a learning aid and a subject, implying the rethinking of organisation, curricula, teacher training and school infrastructure.
A particular effort should also be put in ensuring access to all, which would contribute to create the conditions favourable to increase participation in lifelong learning.
