What is EDUCATRONIC?



The EDUCATRONIC is a educational paradigm characterized by implement solutions (pedagogic, methodology, didactic and technological) pertinent and exclusive for Virtual Education environments.

It is important highlight that the Educatronic, departs from the vision of Virtual Education in the first decade of XXI century, because it is no longer tenable or sustainable see virtual education as “presential education assisted by the ICTs” nor as “a model of distance education updated by ICTs”. It's so specialized, the science and technology required to implement educatronic solutions that need to be contextualized in cybersocial and cultural models, and being digital.

In continuation a brief overview of each component:







e-learning

The first component of the LatinCampus equation is the e-learning or the theoretical component of Virtual Education. Its purpose is to provide the educability component or theory that generates mentals-cognitive competences (along with the e-training). It is done by PEDAGOGICAL MEDIATORS.

The PEDAGOGICAL MEDIATOR or Virtual Teacher is designed in pedagogical models, methodologies and didactic strategies COGNITIVISTS (mental processes take precedence).









e-training

The second component of the LatinCampus equation is the e-training or digital practice of Virtual Education. Its purpose is to provide the first component of the teachability that also generates mental cognitive competences (along with the e-learning). Is performed by SIMULATORS AND EXPERT SYSTEMS.

SIMULATORS or virtual tutors are designed with educational models, methodologies and didactic strategies CONSTRUCTIVISTS AND CONSTRUCTIONISTS.









Trainer-devices

The third component of the LatinCampus equation is the trainer-devices or laboratory of real practice for Virtual Education. Its purpose is to provide the second component that generates cognitive instrumental competences. It is done by EDUCATRONIC-DEVICES (didactic-devices with connected intelligence).

The EDUCATRONIC-DEVICES are designed in models of e-CLECTICISM PEDAGOGIC.
