The aim of this study was to examine the development of the metacognitive knowledge of a group of higher education students who participated actively in an experiment based on a Computer Supported Collaborative Learning environment called KnowCat. Eighteen university students participated in a 12-month learning project during which the KnowCat learning environment was used to support scaffolding process among equals during problem-solving tasks. After using KnowCat, the students were interviewed over their work in this shared workspace. Qualitative analysis revealed that the educational application of KnowCat can favour and improve the development of metacognitive knowledge.

L'objectiu fonamental d'aquest article és mostrar com les técniques desenvolupades en intel'ligéncia artificial (lA) són d'una gran utilitat per tal de millorar el software destinat a I'ambit educatiu. Per a aixó, en primer Iloc, s'hi fa un breu resum de les finalitats i els objectius generals de les investigacions en lA realitzades fins al moment. Posteriorment, es descriuen les diferents aplicacions de la lA en I'educació dirigides als alumnes en tasques formatives i instructives, i als professors en tasques de disseny i planificació de les activitats docents. L'article acaba amb una reflexió sobre les tendéncies futures de la lA aplicada a I'educació.

En aquest article exposarem una proposta didàctica per treballar la llengua oral, valent-nos de les possibilitats que ens ofereixen les noves tecnologies, com ara la gravació i l"emmagatzematge de models de parla i d"imatges de vídeo en un suport digital: el CD-ROM. Aquesta proposta, tot i que es porta a terme en assignatures de nivell universitari dels ensenyaments de mestre i de comu- nicació audiovisual de la UB, és adaptable a diversos nivells educatius, com a l"ensenyament secundari o al de persones adultes, entre d"altres.

This article explains the social transformation process initiated at the end of the 1970s within the neighborhood of La Verneda-Sant Martı´ in Barcelona. This process started with the foundation of an adult education center that was organized as a Learning Community (the first one in the world). From the beginning, it was administered for and by the community. It became a space of debate where the demands and dreams of the neighbors converged about transforming their neighborhood along with the recommendations of the international scientific community. Twenty years later, the dreams came true: There have been substantial improvements throughout the urban space, infrastructures, housing, urban thoroughfares, and public highways. The INCLUD-ED European project, using the communicative methodology of research, has thoroughly studied the transformation carried out in the La Verneda-Sant Martı´ Adult School and its neighborhood. INCLUD-ED has identified successful practices within diverse social areas that are transferable to other contexts and contribute to overcoming inequalities and improving the most underprivileged neighborhoods.

In the last decade, an important debate has arisen about the characteristics of today"s students due to their intensive experience as users of ICT. The main belief is that frequent use of technologies in everyday life implies that competent users are able to transfer their digital skills to learning activities. However, empirical studies developed in different countries reveal similar results suggesting that the"digital native" label does not provide evidence of a better use of technology to support learning. The debate has to go beyond the characteristics of the new generation and focus on the implications of being a learner in a digitalised world. This paper is based on the hypothesis that the use of technology to support learning is not related to whether a student belongs to the Net Generation, but that it is mainly influenced by the teaching model. The study compares behaviour and preferences towards ICT use in two groups of university students: face-to-face students and online students. A questionnaire was applied to a sample of students from five universities with different characteristics (one offers online education and four offer face-to-face education with LMS teaching support). Findings suggest that although access to and use of ICT is widespread, the influence of teaching methodology is very decisive. For academic purposes, students seem to respond to the requirements of their courses, programmes, and universities. There is a clear relationship between students" perception of usefulness regarding certain ICT resources and their teachers" suggested uses of technologies. The most highly rated technologies correspond with those proposed by teachers. The study shows that the educational model (face-to-face or online) has a stronger influence on students" perception of usefulness regarding ICT support for learning than the fact of being a digital native.

La Comunidad de Aprendizaje Escuela de personas adultas La Verneda-Sant Martí, lleva más de 10 años trabajando las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación desde una perspectiva transversal y global. A través del trabajo que venimos realizando día a día, hemos visto como las TIC han pasado de ser una necesidad formativa a convertirse en un contexto de aprendizaje cotidiano entre las personas que participan de nuestro proyecto. Desde que en 1999 decidimos transformar nuestras actividades para integrarnos plenamente en la sociedad de la información hemos cambiado metodologías, prioridades y formas de trabajar. Mostrar cuáles han sido esas transformaciones y qué resultados son los que se han alcanzado es el principal reto del artículo.

La presentació del patrimoni en els museus i altres espais afins (exposicions, parcs arqueològics, centres d"interpretació patrimonial, etcètera) s"està beneficiant en els últims anys dels avenços a nivell didàctic que ofereixen les noves tecnologies. Però, sovint es fa palès que aquestes estratègies comunicatives no impliquen necessàriament una òptima assimilació del discurs històric i museogràfic per part del públic. La modernització dels espais patrimonials amb la incorporació d"audiovisuals i sistemes informàtics multimèdia no serveix de gran cosa si es planteja com un mer recurs passiu de delectació o com una concessió a la creixent implantació social de les noves tecnologies. És per això que es fa imprescindible plantejar des d"un punt de vista didàctic i comunicatiu com aquests recursos poden construir i/o enriquir el discurs a l"entorn del patrimoni (històric, arqueològic, artístic, etcètera) per a una museografia veritablement comprensiva i, més enllà dels objectes, educadora en valors.
