Le ministre @jmblanquer, l'homme qui voulait en finir avec le pédagogisme, se rend donc à #Ludovia15.
Les échanges seront sincères et chaleureux.
Comment expliquer ces improbables et courtoises papouilles ?
En serrant la pogne des pédagogistes, le ministre se lave les mains du cambouis libéral tout en graissant la patte des idiots utiles.
Mais c'est bien le marché de l'éducation, cette nouvelle conjuration des imbéciles, les #edtech, qui fournit le lubrifiant.
Bref, on sait comment tout cela finit : on s'embrassera, sans la langue pour ne pas trop choquer, mais en se mettant une petite olive là où vous savez.
Et les #edtech pourront s'astiquer le membre en matant le film connu de cette #PornPédagogie

Consider the implications for our Ss —and democracy: “Why, when he asked Google his question, was he directed to a white nationalist website trading in vicious propaganda, rather than to accurate statistics provided by the FBI or the SPLC?” #edtech #equity psmag.com/.amp/news/dyla…
And more...

“They make the technology in their image and in their interests.”

“Another element in this template, is that #learning happens at different paces... it changes from person to person ... but the awareness of the limitations has somehow been lost over the decades” @PauloBlikstein #AIed @AIEDconf #personalizedlearning @uclknowledgelab @EDUCATEldn
But...here’s the problem

“There is a big problem with this template that we have been using for decades ... in using this map...” @PauloBlikstein

1/ I spent the past couple months trying to understand how and why #edtech companies are trying to measure, monitor, and mold students' feelings, mindsets, and ways of thinking. You know what that means...thread incoming.
2/ First, let's look at some of the companies & researchers doing this work.

3/ Like @AlgebraNationFL. A team of academics, funded by an $8.9m @IESResearch grant, have used the online platform to anonymously collect the clicks and keystrokes of 200,000 Fla. students. The goal: teach the software to pinpoint when kids feel happy, bored, or engaged.
