Introduction - Let's introduce Technology!

The

main objective of this project is to launch Digital Literacy in EFL classroon in a world contest moved by Knowledge instead of Skills.
The goal seems to be easy considering the economic growth and the market needs,  making professionals each time more specialised.

However, Knowledge in our current system became a enormous network in which information are free and avaiable for everybody who want to learn. Today teachers face the position of a mediator who makes students thinking, criticising, giving opinion and interacting often in a real time.

Communication usually colaborate to build knowledge. The ancient conception of "Bank Education" (Freire,1983,p66) is completly out of context, because It operates under the passive idea of copy and paste without changing on mind conceptions, behavior,way of thinking and so on.

Technology became part of our routine and habits, the distance between companies and workers got shorter as the devices started to be applied at work but a new technology does not eliminate another, they just sum themselves.


"Let's use videos to reinvent education" is a speach by Salman Khan, the creator of "Khan Academy", an organization on a mission with the goal of changing education for the better by providing a free world-class education to anyone anywhere.
