The alarm goes off, they jump out of bed and embark on their journey to the school or institute, after ‘checking’ that they have collected everything necessary for the new course. The students return to the classrooms, but something has changed. If the backpacks with wheels replaced their counterparts a few years back, today, the introduction of ICT as part of the learning process has revolutionized the system. The books and workbooks continue to have an unquestionable weight in the educational centers, but their presence in the classrooms is reinvented in digital format.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of the most interesting issues of the digital backpack is that it is constantly evolving. It is no longer just accessing resources but have them evolving constantly.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
If the suspenders gave prominence to the wheels decades ago, today it is the tablets, computers and other electronic devices that pick up the baton. The contribution of new technologies to the chapter on educational resources is nothing more than the reflection of a digital society that has to take its first steps in school. In an ecosystem in which solutions for the needs of teachers, students, schools and parents have to be combined, digital backpacks seem like a tool capable of responding to all of them.<\/p>\n
But what are digital backpacks<\/a>? How are the contents offered<\/strong>? What advantages<\/strong> do you have compared to traditional systems? At the IES Aldecoa<\/a>, they have spent five years developing the ‘Tablet in the backpack’ program, a pioneering project in which digital backpacks are front and center in the classroom.<\/p>\n
