The Evolution of the Web
http://evolutionofweb.appspot.com/ The Evolution of the Web Over time web technologies have evolved to give web developers the ability to create new generations of useful and immersive web experiences. Today's web is a result of the ongoing efforts of an open web community that helps define these web technologies, like HTML5, CSS3 and WebGL and ensure that they're supported in all web browsers. The color bands in this visualization represent the interaction between web technologies and browsers, which brings to life the many powerful web apps that we use daily. |

(Critical) History of ICT in education
http://tinyurl.com/chq53n (Critical) history of ICT in education - and where we are heading? The use of computers in education is much more a series of failure than success stories. I agree with Erik Duval that in general, on a large scale, the impact of technology on the way people learn has been minimal. In open distant learning and military training (simulations) there are examples of success, but these models do not fit very well into the school and university context. So, I wouldn’t call them “good examples”. |
