In particular, the task entailed designing a strategy to provide for the delivery of educational content to the students online, ie, e-learning using cloud-based Web 2.0 tools. The addition of this new responsibility required the development of a strategy to affront the eventual crisis, and the emphasis to focus on ...

Robert J. Marzano (2001) writes of many strategies that are based on research that are successful in classroom instruction. Here he states that strategies such as identifying similarities and differences, homework and practice and cooperative learning help students acquire knowledge and skills. The data from US Department of Education's National Center for Education ...

It is not trying to get humans to think like computers. There has been a lack of interest for computational thinking in higher education. This presentation is calling for an innovative approach that starts with the identification of a discipline specific problem space within a higher education student's program of study. Keywords-loose parts; imaginative behavior; instructional design; computational thinking.
