If you'd like to contribute please do so. : )<br /><br />Carl Sagan (1977) poignantly ostensifies in his book The <em>Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence</em>, that human beings have in the most recent few tenths of a percent of existence, invented not only extragenetic knowledge, but also extrasomatic knowledge, of which writing is the most notable example... that is until now with ICT. Whether or not, you agree with Sagan, there’s no doubt that knowledge acquisition and transmission are very different from yesteryear.<br /><br />Cyberspace now is the cradle of a plethora of extrasomatic knowledge (i.e. information shared outside our bodies) that is "googlizable" and deliverable with a click crossing both time and distance as we know it. Furthermore, 21st Century learning is not just about the individual learner's mind, but rather the interface of the learner's mind and ICT, which houses global information given from multiple perspectives. ICT is truly the learner's helm of the 21st Century!<br /><br />Piaget asserted, The current state of knowledge is a movement in history, changing just as rapidly as the state of knowledge in the past has ever changed, and in many instances more rapidly. Thus, shouldn't our developmental frameworks evolve to embrace ICT for 21st Century Learning?<br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:georgia;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:georgia;"></span><p><span style="font-family:georgia;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family:georgia;"></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23465516-114340163528091959?l=digitalacquisitionmodel.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mechellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11519865688597613570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23465516.post-1143313064228575982006-03-25T13:57:00.000-05:002006-03-25T20:44:15.823-05:00<a id="clustrMapsLink" href="http://clustrmaps.com/counter/maps.php?url=http://digitalacquisitionmodel.blogspot.com/"><img alt="Locations of visitors to this page" onerror="this.onError=null; this.src='http://www.meetomatic.com/images/clustrmaps-back-soon.jpg'; document.getElementById('clustrMapsLink').href='http://clustrmaps.com/'" src="http://clustrmaps.com/counter/index2.php?url=http://digitalacquisitionmodel.blogspot.com/" border="1" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23465516-114331306422857598?l=digitalacquisitionmodel.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mechellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11519865688597613570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23465516.post-1141581377361850442006-03-05T12:55:00.000-05:002006-03-28T07:46:42.976-05:00There is a Creative Commons License (By:Attribution) regarding this work. <br /><br /></span><a href="http://creativecommons.org/"><span style="font-family:georgia;">http://creativecommons.org/</span></a><span style="font-family:georgia;"><br /><br /><!--Creative Commons License--></span><a href="<a" rel="license"><span style="font-family:georgia;"><img alt="Creative Commons License" src="http://www.blogger.com/" border="0" /></a></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23465516-114158137736185044?l=digitalacquisitionmodel.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mechellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11519865688597613570noreply@blogger.com1
