2. Learning Management Systems LMS

A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of educational courses or training programs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_management_system https://www.knewton.com/infographics/blended-learning/

What Does an LMS Do? Any LMS should perform three main functions: Systematizing and presenting training content Creating assignments to solidify and test knowledge Evaluate progress

classroom.google.com‎ Google Classroom is a blended learning platform for schools that aims to simplify creating, distributing and grading assignments in a paperless way. It was introduced as a feature of Google Apps for Education following its public release on August 12, 2014. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Classroom

The fifth 5C´s: Computational Thinking – Coding Digital Minded    

Paper and talks off http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~wing/ Computational thinking will be a fundamental skill used by everyone in the world by the middle of the 21st Century. Just like reading, writing, and arithmetic. Incestuous: Computing and computers will enable the spread of computational thinking. In research: scientists, engineers, …, historians, artists In education: K-12 students and teachers, undergrads, … Thinking computationally not programming Fundamental skill not rote skill Computing not computers: pervasive computing/computers is passe: 20th Century! “used by” ambitious. Certainly needed to function in modern society In research: long-term; in education: nearer-term (outreach, diversity, changing society’s view of our field) J.M. Wing, “Computational Thinking,” CACM Viewpoint, March 2006, pp. 33-35. Paper and talks off http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~wing/ Computational Thinking Jeannette M. Wing

Computing is the Automation of Abstractions 1. Machine 2. Human 3. Human + Machine 4. Networks of 1, 2, or 3 Computational Thinking is the process of abstraction - choosing the right abstractions - operating in terms of multiple layers of abstraction simultaneously - defining the relationships the between layers as in Mathematics guided by the following concerns… Computational Thinking Jeannette M.
