Launching a learning blog as TIC and TAC tool in the sphere of university
Abstract
The European Higher Education Area has made possible the incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in University`s classes. However, nowadays it is being hotly debated whether ICT can be considered as a technology and educative tool that allows learning about knowledge. The creation of an educative blog in the subject of “ICT applied to Education”, from the degree in Pre-primary Education of the University of Burgos (2010/2011) is the focus of this research. The conclusion that can be drawn from this experience is that the use of the blog has not only made possible a co-constructivist learning of knowledge of ICT through ICT, but also has contributed to collaborative and cognitive work being a learning tool itself. Besides, within occult curriculum, it has sought to raise awareness on attention to diversity as its guideline and key topic.
