El Icono, de lo real a la virtualidad

Evolución de lo iconográfico hacia su uso en educación virtual

Breve Historia del Icono. Video de: Oswaldo Freitez

millones antes de Cristo al Siglo V D.C. Prehistoria-Antiguedad

El icono por representar un significado muy cercano al hombre, fue haciéndose de uso común y convencional en los grupos sociales.

Siglo V a Siglo XV D.C Edad Media

El icono (imagen) es asociado a lo espiritual, a lo religioso, a través de las piezas artísticas.

Se observa también un desarrollo en sociedades secretas.

El icono sirve para guardar los secretos y educar a los elegidos, estos son los que los reconocen, interpretan y acceden a los significados a los que esta asociado

Siglo XV a Siglo XVIII D.C. Edad Moderna

Mantiene su estrecha relación con el arte. El icono se oculta en las obras de los artistas.

Se asocia al poder religioso y más tarde al nacimiento del humanismo

Siglo XVIII a Siglo XXI D.C. Edad Contemporanea

Marcada por el desarrollo tecnológico, el icono por su sencillez, es asociado a la interfaz de los ordenadores y dispositivos computacionales como como facilitador de la interacción hombre-maquina.

Su éxito como parte del lenguaje visual de la informatica, es tal que prácticamente todos los desarrolladores asumen el uso de iconos para el acceso a la virtualidad de la W.W.W.

Actualidad Aulas Iconográficas

El icono en educación virtual es entonces un elemento gráfico (pictograma) al que se asocia determinada significación e interpretación.

Abriendo así puertas que facilitan la motivación, la curiosidad y por ende el aprendizaje bajo dicho modelo.

Las Aulas Iconográficas vienen a ser una propuesta de Planeta FATLA en la investigación y desarrollo de propuestas educativas virtuales.

Live Quizzes

Live Quizzes allows you to launch quizzes and polls in real time to get instant feedback.

To launch a 'Live Quiz' you have to access to a presentation and click on the 'Launch' button placed at the bottom of the quiz you want to use. Take into account that the 'Launch' button is not present when you are previewing a presentation with the editor. When you launch a live quiz, a 'quiz session' is created on the ViSH platform, which will store all the quiz results and stats. Once a 'quiz session' is created, you will be able to access it (and therefore to view the results and stats) on the ViSH Platform at any time.

After you launch a live quiz using the 'Launch' button placed at the bottom of the quiz, a new screen will pop up ('live quiz screen') displaying several elements:
- A hyperlink to the live quiz, for instance: 'http://vishub.org/qs/1234'. This hyperlink is use to answer the quiz. Anyone accessing this internet address will be able to answer the live quiz. Therefore you can share your live quiz through this hyperlink, for example sending it by email or pasting it in a forum.
- Some logos of popular social networks (Twitter, Facebook, Google+, ...). You can share the hyperlink of the live quiz on any of these social networks by clicking on the corresponding logo.
- A QR code for mobile devices. Any device can automatically get the live quiz hyperlink by scanning this QR code.
- A 'Results' tab placed at the top, that allows you to view in real time the quiz results. Depending on the type of the quiz, the representation of the results will vary (pie chart, graph bar, etc.).
If you want to 'close' the live quiz you should click on the 'Stop' button placed at the bottom right. After you close a live quiz no more answers will be allowed and stored. You can also close a live quiz from the ViSH platform at any time. When you close a live quiz, you can optionally specify a name to facilitate its later searching on the ViSH.

If you exit from the live quiz screen, you can come back at any time by clicking on the 'Options' button placed at the bottom of the quiz. Notice that if a quiz has been launched, the 'Launch' button is replaced by a 'Options' button. Once you close the live quiz, the 'Launch' button will appear again. Finally, bear in mind that you can not launch more than one live quiz at the same time.
