The Brasilian Ict Market 9 10 Nov. 2005 Milangdonnini
油
The document introduces the Brazilian ICT market and potential synergies with Italian companies. It notes that Brazil's GDP grew nearly 5% in 2004 and inflation/unemployment are low. ICT investments in Brazil are forecast to grow 9% annually through 2008. Major global ICT companies have a presence in Brazil and some Italian firms operate there as well. The Brazilian financial system is efficient and reliable, with large international banks participating, while ICT solutions have been exported throughout South America and to the US. The market is fragmented with many small companies, though banking suppliers tend to be larger with over 15 years of experience. Brazil is considered a top offshore location due to its services rates, which are up to 60% lower than in
The document discusses the benefits of integrating educational technology into classrooms. It provides examples of how technology can be used to help teach reading skills in an engaging way for students. Several organizations that promote the use of technology in education are mentioned, including programs run by NASA and companies that donate funds and equipment to schools implementing more technology. The conclusion is that educational technology can make learning more fun for students and help prepare them for future success compared to more traditional forms of teaching.

Digital Innovation in Schools: Case Studies of 10 Schools for 21st Century discusses technology integration in education. It describes 10 schools that have successfully implemented digital technologies and transformed their pedagogical approaches. The schools employ strategies like project-based learning, personalized learning, BYOD programs, and digital curricula. They aim to equip students with 21st century skills by enhancing the learning process through technology, redesigning teaching methods, and empowering students as producers and managers of their own learning.
This document provides an introduction to a Digital Turn course taught by Mart Laanpere. It includes information about Mart, the practicalities of the course, background on Estonia, statistics on Estonia's digital society, its success on PISA tests, shifts in technology use in education, Estonia's strategy for lifelong learning and digital turn in schools, and experiences from a Samsung digital turn project. The document outlines the course content and provides context about Estonia's leadership in digital education.
Education system in Estonia: PISA and Digital TurnMart Laanpere
油
This document summarizes education in Estonia, including its success on PISA tests in mathematics, reading, and science. It provides statistics on Estonia's population, economy, and information society indicators showing widespread computer and internet access. Educational statistics are presented showing Estonia ranking highly in the world and Europe on PISA from 2009 to 2015. Possible factors for this success are discussed like school autonomy, qualified teachers, equal opportunities, and educational expenditures. The document concludes by discussing Estonia's digital turn in schools toward 1:1 computing and new learning paradigms.
Scenario-Based Validation of the Online Tool for Assessing Teachers Digital ...Mart Laanpere
油
This document summarizes research evaluating an online tool and rubric for assessing Estonian teachers' digital competencies. Through focus groups with teachers and other stakeholders, the researchers found:
1) Some statements in the rubric were difficult to understand or irrelevant for teachers.
2) The workload of self-assessment was too high, reducing motivation.
3) Changing to a simpler 3-point scale and providing examples instead of definitions could increase usability.
4) Scenario-based discussions helped validate changes needed to the rubric and tool to better reflect teachers' experiences and increase adoption. Suggestions were made to simplify the rubric and requirements for a new online assessment tool.
Evidence-Centered Approach to Online Assessment of Students Digital CompetenceMart Laanpere
油
This document discusses developing an online assessment of digital competence for Estonian students based on an Evidence-Centered Design (ECD) framework. It involves two university teams combining deductive and inductive approaches to build an assessment aligned with the DigComp framework and Estonian curriculum. The ECD framework layers assessment from domain analysis to implementation. A Bayesian network and practical tasks are proposed to assess knowledge, skills, and abilities. Piloting is planned in schools to test scenario-based tasks and Bayesian scoring.
Digital Mirror: Measuring the digital innovation maturity in Estonian schoolsMart Laanpere
油
1. The document discusses measuring the impact of whole-school digital innovation in Estonian schools. It describes Estonia's strategy of implementing a digital turn in education through 1:1 computing initiatives.
2. A tool called "Digital Mirror" is presented for assessing schools' digital maturity across dimensions of infrastructure, pedagogical innovation, and change management. The tool was used to evaluate schools in Estonia's Samsung DigitalTurn project.
3. Lessons from empirical studies with vocational schools show that Digital Mirror is useful for schools to self-assess and benchmark their digital progress, though it may take time to fully adopt and interpret key concepts. The tool could be integrated with the European Dig

Analysing the Use of Distributed Digital Learning ResourcesMart Laanpere
油
Mart Laanpere presented on analyzing the use of distributed digital learning resources in Estonia. Estonia has moved towards a digital learning strategy of BYOD and digital textbooks, which requires learning analytics that can aggregate data from multiple sources across the open web. The current situation in Estonia finds learning resources scattered across many platforms. To address this, eSchoolbag is being developed as a digital learning resource cloud that can harvest metadata from different repositories, power search and recommendations, track user activities, and provide a recommender system - helping to analyze learning in a distributed environment.
