Angélica Potes's curator insight, May 16, 2017 3:17 PM
In some way, today we are living the future which has got us closer to a set of technological inventions that are useful for us in the sense that they cover many of our necessities, even leisure activities. Apart from all the activities in which internet is useful, the one I consider the most important is the education. Internet and, in fact, technology serves as a bridge to reach the knowledge from the spot we are standing in an easier way. Hence, as this article explains, Blended learning which is the type of academic formation presented in a program that mixes Internet-based media with traditional classroom methods. When this happens in a classroom, we can say that the lesson is totally oriented to 21st century students from 21st century teachers. Therefore, altough this is an action that is not easy to experience is state schools in Colombia, it is something that can be built for future generations in which the state can support education with technology in the way that I already explained.
