Pedagogical uses of ICT: from consumption to participatory cocreation / Usos pedagógicos de las TIC: del consumo a la co-creación participativa

Abstract

Some pedagogical uses of ICT improve learning mediated by technology, but we also  observe  some  uses  of  ICT  that  place  students  in  situations  of  passive  or interactive  consumption.  To  analyze  the  different  ICT  uses,  their  limits  and potential, we introduce five levels of educational uses of ICT. First, passive consumption (e.g. videos); second, interactive consumption (e.g. interactive schoolbooks); in the third and fourth levels, creation  of  individual  or  team  content  (e.g.  create  a  story),  and  finally,  the participatory co-creation of knowledge, aimed at understanding or solving problems within a learning community.

Keywords:  Co-Creation,  technology,  techno-creativity,  uses  of  ICT,  technology enhanced Learning, ICT integration, educational technology.
