TRANSCRIPT
HORIZON REPORT:IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
Intention
• Describing new and emerging practices and technology in education.• Describing “change forces” that may affect teaching, learning and
creative expression.
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The Iberoamerican edition of the Horizon Report shares with the rest of reports the intention of:
The Horizon Report.Ib is focused on the specificities
of higher education in Iberoamerican countries.
The Horizon Report Ib is a joint initiative of the eLearn Center, UOC and the New Media Consortium.
Introduction
It’s a forecast targeting six emerging technologies, as well as the key challenges and trends associated to them, considered to have a great impact on higher education in Latin American countries, Spain and Portugal during next 5 years.
The selected technologies are distributed in three horizons according to the time to adoption:
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
One year or less
Two to three years
Four to five years
Advisory Board
The diversity of profiles and trajectories of members of the AB has been crucial in order to build a global and local view of the heterogeneous reality of the iberoamerican countries.
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
44 experts in the innovative use of technology in education from 12 Latin American countries, Spain and Portugal have participated in the Advisory Board the Horizon Report.Ib 2010.
Advisory Board
One of the expected outcomes of the report is to foster the creation of a network of experts focused on the educational possibilities of emerging technologies.
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
Methodology
The work of the AB members can be divided in two phases:
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The methodology used is an adaptation of the Delphi technique: a consultation with experts in progressive degrees of depth.
– Online collaboration through the wiki http://ibero.wiki.nmc.org/
– Face to face meeting in Puebla, México on 14th, 15th and 16th of April.
Methodology
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The selection of the emerging technologies as well as the key challenges and trends was done through a two round online vote.
The wording of the draft report has been in charge of the project coordination team. This first version has been reviewed by the AB. After the approval, the Horizon Report: Iberoamerican edition 2010 will be published.

Trends
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
Knowledge is "decentralized" in ways that affect production, distribution ... and reuse.
Technology is dramatically affecting the way we work, collaborate, communicate and move forward.
Technology has become a means to train students, a method to communicate and interact with them, and a ubiquitous and transparent part of their life.
Trends
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
Teachers - and many of the institutions where they work - are gradually losing their misgivings towards technologies.
Our way of thinking about learning environments is changing.
The perceived value of innovation and creativity is increasing.
The technologies we use are increasingly based on cloud structures, and our idea of information technology support is decentralized.
Key Challenges
Teacher training that facilitates the incorporation of the use of digital media in the teaching and learning.
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The following challenges have been listed as the most likely to cause a significant impact on teaching, learning and creative research in the coming years:
The main challenge is managing change, not to revise or improve, but to transform the teaching, research and university management through the intelligent use of ICT to contribute to economic growth, human development and social cohesion.
Digital literacy has to be a part of the professionalization of the teachers.
Key Challenges
Integration of the use of the ICT for problem solving, creation of knowledge.
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
There is a growing need to include the use of new media in formal education.
Students are changing, but the educational practices and materials to support teaching evolve very slowly.
Integration of the technology to support the educational model.
Policy recommendations
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The data and reflections arisen during the working process led us to go one step further and adventure some policy recommendations. The aim of the following recommendations is to open the scope of future action, rather than acting as concluding sentences:
Organizational change, institutional, systemic.
Training of trainers.
Linking formal education with informal education.
Policy recommendations
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
Linking formal education with Lifelong Learning.
Digital divide: physical access.
Digital Divide: e-skills.
About the future
HORIZON REPORT: IBEROAMERICAN EDITION 2010
The Horizon Report: iberoamerican Edition is a very powerful initiative to promote reflection and debate about the possibilities of emerging tecnologies in iberoamerican higher education.
Annual publication of Horizon.Ib Report.
Horizon.Ib Report as a working tool.
Creation of a regional expert network focused on the educational use of emerging technologies.
After this first edition, key aspects are:
