One way of bridging the educational divide between girls/women and boys/men is by mainstreaming gender components into pedagogical delivery of instruction. There is a need for more awareness, knowledge and practice skill sets that help teachers reflect on their instructional practices. Teachers need to be cognizant of gender issues replete with students’ learning and how they can implement effective instructional pedagogies that mitigate gender bias. This article presents an instructional framework for gender-responsive collaborative learning and a resourceful tool for teachers to design gender-responsive collaborative learning environments that promote the achievement of all students.

This books lays the foundation for prospective teachers to learn about various teaching methodologies and covers material typically found in many teacher training programs. Chapters in the text can be assigned either from beginning to end, as with a conventional printed book, or they can be selected in some other sequence to meet the needs of particular students or classes. In general the first half of the book focuses on broader questions and principles taken from psychology per se, and the second half focuses on somewhat more practical issues of teaching. But the division between “theory” and “practice” is only approximate; all parts of the book draw on research, theory, and practical wisdom wherever appropriate. Chapter 2 is about learning theory, and Chapter 3 is about development; but as we point out, these topics overlap with each other as well as with the concerns of daily teaching. Chapter 4 is about several forms of student diversity (what might be called individual differences in another context), and Chapter 5 is about one form of diversity that has become prominent in schools recently—students with disabilities. Chapter 6 is about motivation, a topic that is heavily studied by psychological researchers, but that also poses perennial challenges to classroom teachers.

Long Description:
This book is the result of a co-design project in a class in the Masters of Education program at the University of Calgary. The course, and the resulting book, focus primarily on the safe and ethical use of technology in digital learning environments. The course was organized according to four topics based on Farrow’s (2016) Framework for the Ethics of Open Education. Students were asked to review, analyze, and synthesize each topic from three meta-ethical theoretical positions: deontological, consequentialist, and virtue ethical (Farrow, 2016). The chapters in this open educational resource (OER) were co-designed using a participatory pedagogy with the intention to share and mobilize knowledge with a broader audience. The first three chapters in the book discuss specific ethical considerations related to technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) , social networking services (SNS), and 3D printing. The next four chapters shift to a broader discussion of resource sharing, adaptive learning systems, STEM, and assistive technologies. The final two chapters discuss admissions and communications that need to be considered from an institutional perspective. In each of the nine chapters, the authors discuss the connection to the value of technology in education, and practical possibilities of learning technologies for inclusive, participatory, democratic, and pluralistic educational paradigms.

This book is the result of a co-design project in a class in the Masters of Education program at the University of Calgary. The course, and the resulting book, focus primarily on the safe and ethical use of technology in digital learning environments, and is the second volume in the series. The course was organized according to four topics based on Farrow’s (2016) Framework for the Ethics of Open Education. Students were asked to review, analyze, and synthesize each topic from three meta-ethical theoretical positions: deontological, consequentialist, and virtue ethical (Farrow, 2016). The chapters in this open educational resource (OER) were co-designed using a participatory pedagogy with the intention to share and mobilize knowledge with a broader audience. The first section, comprised of four chapters, focuses on topics relating to well-being in technology-enabled learning environments, including the use of web cameras, eproctoring software, video games, and access to broadband connectivity. The second section focuses on privacy and autonomy of learners and citizens in a variety of contexts from schools to clinical settings. In each of the seven chapters, the authors discuss the connection to the value of technology in education, and practical possibilities of learning technologies for inclusive, participatory, democratic, and pluralistic educational paradigms. The book concludes with reflections from the course instructor gained over two iterations of teaching the course.

El MOOC «Europeana en el aula: construyendo las competencias del siglo XXI con el patrimonio cultural digital» (repetición) ayudará a los profesores a conocer mejor el patrimonio cultural para así integrarlo de forma eficaz en sus clases, independientemente de la materia que suelan impartir.
La integración del patrimonio cultural digital en el aula adquiere cada vez más peso, ya que el siglo XXI abre numerosas posibilidades para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje digital. Aunque los currículos nacionales pueden variar de un país a otro, sigue existiendo una gran demanda por conocer nuestra historia europea común, nuestro patrimonio cultural y los retos de futuro. El patrimonio cultural digital puede utilizarse no solo para impartir Arte, Historia o Literatura, sino que también ofrece una excelente base para la enseñanza de Ciencias, Tecnología, Ingeniería y Matemáticas (CTIM).
El MOOC será la puerta de entrada a la plataforma Europeana, donde los participantes encontrarán diferentes recursos pedagógicos, como fotos, vídeos, textos y otras herramientas que pueden integrar fácilmente en sus clases. Asimismo, el curso ayudará a los profesores a crear escenarios pedagógicos gracias al patrimonio cultural digital, todo ello dentro de un marco de competencias del siglo XXI.
Además, ofrecerá una selección de actividades y recursos avalados para el aula de diferentes países europeos para que los profesores de primaria y secundaria puedan incorporar el patrimonio cultural en el aula y ayudarles a reflexionar sobre su propia docencia.
The “Europeana in your classroom: building 21st-century competences with digital cultural heritage (Rerun)” MOOC will improve teacher’s understanding of cultural heritage in order to efficiently integrate this topic into their lessons and practices, regardless of the subject they usually teach.
The integration of digital cultural heritage in the classroom is increasingly important as the 21st century brings further opportunities for digital teaching and learning. While the national curriculum can differ from country to country, the demand to understand our common European history, cultural heritage and challenges for the future stays all-encompassing. Digital cultural heritage can be used not only while teaching Arts, History or Literature, but it also gives an excellent basis for teaching STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).
The MOOC will introduce participants to the Europeana platform, where they will find different resources for educators such as pictures, videos, texts and various tools that they can easily integrate in their lessons. Moreover, the course will help teachers to build learning scenarios using digital cultural heritage, in a framework of 21st-century skills.
Additionally, it will offer a selection of tested classroom activities and resources from different European countries to empower primary and secondary teachers in introducing cultural heritage in the classroom and help them reflect on their own practices.
