Da Educação, uma passagem:

«Education and Skills
Use of digital technologies to improve teaching, research and use of evidence

Technology is being used to support learning across different stages of education. For example, technologies such as location specific resources can be used to better support new and existing students. The Future Cities catapult is working with the University of Glasgow to develop a strategy for a Smart Campus that will take into account changes in technology and learning whilst also protecting their heritage (both cultural and physical) and realising cost savings. Technologies are also being used to engage learners including augmented reality technology (such as Google Cardboard), adaptive learning technologies (Dreambox, ALEKS, Reasoning Mind), and holographic learning (Microsoft HoloLens). Technologies are further being used to support teaching. For example, one school has used two of SoftBank’s human-looking robots and AI to grade students’ written answers. Technology can also be used for administrative purposes such as monitoring attendance automatically. Examples include small digital “badges” signifying completion of a training task, using analytics to boost fair access and retention and lead to improved student satisfaction and attainment. Other technologies such as Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems – programs that connect the brain or nervous system to a computer – are at an earlier stage but may help support users with significant physical or sensory deficits. They can collect information on attention levels of students and can store and manage educational data concerning learning processes. (...)»

Da Apresentação:

«(...)

Governments can help to open up systems to innovation. They can create an innovation-friendly climate that encourages transformative ideas to flourish on the ground, both by fostering innovation within the system and by creating opportunities for outside innovations to come in. They can help strengthen professional autonomy and a collaborative culture where great ideas are shared and refined. Governments can help to make great ideas real by providing access to funding and non-financial support to lift those ideas into action. Not least, governments can build incentives and signals that strengthen the visibility and demand for what demonstrably works. But governments can only do so much. Silicon Valley works because governments have created the conditions for innovation, not because they do the innovation. Similarly,  governments cannot innovate in classrooms. If there has been one lesson learnt about innovating education, it is that teachers, schools and local administrators should not just be involved in the implementation of educational change but they should have a central role in its design. They need robust frameworks and sound knowledge about what works if they are to be effective innovators and game changers. The OECD Centre for Educational Research and Innovation has devoted considerable energy to building such a knowledge base about innovative policy and practice over recent years. This Handbook now translates that knowledge base into practical tools for teachers and for leaders, whether in schools or at other levels of education systems. We hope it will empower them to educate children for their future, not for our past. (...)».

BOM NATAL !

A conferência a que se refere a imagem teve lugar recentemente como se pode constatar. Ao vermos o programa não pudemos deixar de reparar nas matérias tratadas, algumas, a nosso ver, tão pouco refletidas no nosso País em ambiente  «Contabilidade e Contabilistas». Por exemplo:  «Technology Impact on Accounting»; «Integrated Reporting – Future of Reporting»;

«Taxation in the Disruptive Era – Challenges and Opportunities» ... Bom, mas basta olhar o mote global da Conferência:«Accountancy Profession: Convergence and Sustainability in Digital Era». Em resumo, inspirador.
