			Dearest Dr. Bracho&#8230;We are so grateful that you took the time to respond to our <a href="http://hj.ukini.org/carta-abierta-a-felipe-bracho/#comment-2355">open letter</a>. But really disappointed with your arguments, nevertheless we wrote you a poem to show our gratitude:
		</p>
<blockquote style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 40px; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; border-style: none; padding: 0px" class="webkit-indent-blockquote"><p>
			&#8220;Oh Dear Felipe, how much we despite you let me count the ways !&#8221;
		</p></blockquote>
<p>
			No, really&#8230;It seems you payed nulled attention nor read the open letter.(I could even risk myself to declare that you are so full of it).Please just desist of any effort to defend yourself, you are only making it worse and making us sick.Your response seems quite uninformed and reflects the lack of knowledge for any contemporary trend in technology, education, information, knowledge societies or general contemporary culture.</p>
<p>But don&#8217;t worry, despite the <a href="http://hj.ukini.org/vandalism-on-enciclomedias-article-in-wikipedia/">HUGE efforts</a> you have made to make the civil society hate you and the almost <a href="feed://hj.ukini.org/orbital/birdfeeder/enciclomedia">infinite news</a> on corruption and illegalities on behalf of your organization, friends and processes. I mean&#8230; did you really thought that you could privatize public resources to develop your &#8220;fantastic&#8221; (insert sarcastic tone here) idea ?</p>
<p>			Who on earth thought that such a public program could be privatized like that? <span style="font-style: italic" class="Apple-style-span">oh wait, you are doing it already.</span>Stealing our money and fucking up our poor education system.One thing is to have, conceive an idea, and another one is to take ownership of the intellectual property which derives from it.Do you imagine of all researchers and scientist would take full ownership of their ideas after companies financed the full R&amp;D ? c&#8217;est ridicule !!! and even more when such funds come from CONACYT and not a private company.And how about all the content that government payed to be developed, are those also part of your property ? please&#8230;.</p>
<p>				But worry not my friend!!. We at the &#8220;Felipe Bracho&#8217;s Fan Club&#8221; have a great idea to save your <span style="text-decoration: line-through" class="Apple-style-span">ass</span> reputation and letting you still profit from your hard work (cough cough). Nobody is against capitalism and entrepreneur ship. You just gotta play nice !! for real !!</p>
<p>				No, really, bear with me for a while and seriously consider this:
</p>
<p>	Why don&#8217;t we adopt an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_innovation">open model</a>? You see, there is nothing bad in creating a business model based on public commons.Fuck, just take a look at linux and all open-source projects. they are quite profitable. Why don&#8217;t WE open up Enciclomedia to an open innovation model in which the common base of intellectual property, software and course materials can be used, and increased by anyone who wishes to use it ? Every other industry is doing it for some time now. why shouldn&#8217;t we ? </p>
<p>	I strongly recommend you read <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wikinomics-Mass-Collaboration-Changes-Everything/dp/1591841380">Wikinomis</a>, and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Open-Innovation-Imperative-Profiting-Technology/dp/1578518377">Open Innovation</a> i can gladly provide you with copies. (as long as you promise you will read them).So here is the deal:
		</p>
<ol>
<li>We release the course material in which millions tax money has been spent (software is useless cuz its on a microsoft platform)
			</li>
<li>We commit to review and enhance the contents and release them under a <a href="http://www.creativecommons.org/">creative common</a> license
			</li>
</ol>
<p>
			And then you can sell it to which any government you like. It pays for real, you will end up with a better product than that you are currently trying to (and very questionably) sell, really.And then and ONLY then, Enciclomedia could get near to provide any benefit for our broken education system. </p>
<p>We all win&#8230; </p>
<p>Now please DO response in ordet to take further action to save Enciclomedia (not to justify nor defend yourself) and I&#8217;m sure we can all make things the right way, for a better future&#8230; <br />Longing to hear from you once again. <br />Your dearest friends: <br />Mexican non-dormant Civic Youth

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today as i started my Monday session on the web, my mind paralyzed for over it seamed more than 5 minutes in emptiness&#8230;I was trying to fully understand what i has just realized.Even within our own education rescue plans, the vices of our idiosyncrasy that narrow our minds have seem to take effect. Is so evident that our own education programs obstruct our cultural development?Was it possible that the own leaders of the project vandalize <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enciclomedia">their information</a>?Mr. <a href="maitlo:aguzman1526@hotmail.com">Alejandro Guzman</a> kindly <a href="http://hj.ukini.org/carta-abierta-a-felipe-bracho/#comment-1766">revitalized</a> my almost lost interest on Enciclomedia Project. After my brief response i decided to go back to my information sources and look for some updates, that is how i found out about Colin Bryton and his excellent notes on the topic.Further more I return to Wikipedia with the hope to see some new knowledge on the project. For my surprise I saw myself before a sad surprise.Almost all content from the <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enciclomedia">article</a> had been deleted. Only copy-paste content from the governments&#8217; web-sites appear along with a lame excuse in defence of the project where an discussion related to the content edition should be.My first reaction was obviously think of our governments&#8217; party.After all they demonstrated an affection to hide manipulated and cheat on their own reports.But I fought against my first instincts and decided to do a proper analysis of the situation.I, personally am not a very savvy wikipedia user. so i went to the irc channel and presented the case&#8230; within no more than 2 minutes the content was restored along with the previous discussion pages (one point for open democracy).After the damaged had been reverted, I was still curious about this mysterious changes. So I went and dug some more.So it happened to be that our arbitrary editor user with ip: 148.245.60.60 was asked not to edit the article in such manner or would be banned. Ok an ip.. we have something now.<br />
<blockquote>Hola, 148.245.60.60. Te agradecerÃ© no edites arbitrariamente los artÃ­culos; otros editores deben perder tiempo valioso en revertir tus acciones y empaÃ±as la imagen de Wikipedia que puede hacerse un visitante ocasional. Recuerda ademÃ¡s que las ediciones arbitrarias pueden ser consideradas un acto de vandalismo (lo que nos obligarÃ­a a bloquearte) y que tienes la zona de pruebas para hacer ensayos de ediciÃ³n. Gracias. Tano Â¿comentarios? 23:06 7 mar 2007 (CET)Â </p></blockquote>
<p>Whats even more, whois 148.245.60.60 guides us directly to:<br />
<blockquote>owner:Â Â Â Â Â Â  <a href="http://ilce.edu.mx/">INSTIT LATINOAMERICANO DE LA COMUNICACION EDUCATIVA</a>ownerid:Â Â Â Â  MX-ILLC1-LACNICaddress:Â Â Â Â  ARENAL NO. 550.address:Â Â Â Â  CIUDAD DE MEXICO, DF 16020country:Â Â Â Â  MXÂ </p></blockquote>
<p>Same <a href="http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=148.245.60.60">IP and whois information that of our kindest Alejandro Guzman</a>, who works for Enciclomedia. Where does all this information takes me&#8230;Well&#8230; it seems that someone inside the Enciclomedia Project and ILCE has been investing a lot of effort trying to hide all information that doesn&#8217;t defend the project.If it wasn&#8217;t enough with all the political problems they have found themselves with corruption administration and logistics. They keep playing the game&#8230;They deleted:
<ul>
<li>Critics</li>
<li>References</li>
<li>Detailes on Documents and Names</li>
<li>Links to further information</li>
<li>etc.</li>
</ul>
<p>The only way to gain the confidence, trust and support from the people is talking clearly, open and transparently.As i once said&#8230; We are not the same country nor generation as we were in the 80&#8217;s. You can&#8217;t control people by manipulating information, not in this era where openness and collaboration is a modus operandi.We all want Enciclomedia to work, but hiding mistakes wont make it work&#8230;Open people&#8230; think open.When you share you problems and mistakes, people will learn from them and will help you solve them.</p>

He added that the only country that exceeds Mexico is the England, but only in the amount of computers installed.Well I just happen to disagree mostly with this short sighted opinion. Above we can see rural school <a href="http://www.bcps.org.uk/index2.htm"> Broadclyst Community Primary School</a> in Devon. Clearly we can see the technological superiority as bracho proclaims.But you would only have to take a look at the rest of the schools program to notice that their education is by far superior. Take a look at their arts program for example, arts and creativity are considered as important as any other subject in the curriculum, and even have a home school learning program.Please Dr. Bracho, please understand that technology itself is not innovation, neither will it bring a revolution to our education system, it&#8217;s merely a tool, not a solution. Our children are getting dumber with Enciclomedia, you allready have the results, please stop pushing the program.Technologically speaking, its badly designed&#8230; The thesis upon it was built wasn&#8217;t meant to be used as a learning tool, but information retrieval. It&#8217;s costly to maintain and to operate.All over the world schools are turning towards open source sustainable technologies, why do you want to lead Mexico into an obsolete model against all common sense ? England doesn;t has superiors education system because they have more computers&#8230; you keep thinking tech is solution&#8230; They have better education system because they enforce creativity and have modern education models&#8230;We have to make our children think&#8230; not memorize.i hope its not to late to make our politicians think&#8230;</p>

<p>I have been reading an increasing amount of people thinking of innovation in education and education technologies. there for I opened a <a href="http://ukini.org/enciclomedia/forums/">education innovation forum </a>to discuss such topics.I just opened the forum today so its pretty much empty, so feel free o open new topics and speak up your minds.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>El dÃ­a 4 de marzo, 2007, el economista publico <a href="http://www.economista.com.mx/articulos/2007-03-04-31439">una nota </a>por JosÃ© Juan Reyes que me cayo como cachetada.<br />
<blockquote>El creador del programa Enciclomedia, Felipe Bracho, asegurÃ³ que MÃ©xico se ha colocado a la vanguardia en la enseÃ±anza con este mÃ©todo, pues ningÃºn paÃ­s de LatinoamÃ©rica cuenta con un software similar.MÃ¡s aÃºn, dijo, la Ãºnica naciÃ³n, a nivel mundial, que supera a la nuestra es Inglaterra, pero sÃ³lo en nÃºmero de equipos instalados en las escuelas, no en la calidad.En entrevista el coordinador de InformÃ¡tica Educativa del Instituto Latinoamericano de la ComunicaciÃ³n Educativa (ILCE) pidiÃ³ no golpear al sistema de aprendizaje, sino darle mayor impulso para romper la brecha digital para permitir que los alumnos y profesores de educaciÃ³n primaria aprovechen al mÃ¡ximo la tecnologÃ­a.Â </p></blockquote>
<p>Dr. Bracho:Me parece que en algÃºn momento el proyecto Enciclomedia se olvido de su principal objetivo. Mejorar la Calidad de educaciÃ³n en el paÃ­s. Mas allÃ¡ de las bonitas palabras y manifiestos de innovaciÃ³n que nos presenta el documento oficial; nuestro gobierno se debe de preocupar no por implementar la mejor tecnologÃ­a que podamos en nuestras escuelas, sino implementar los mejores modelos educativos para elevar nuestra decadente calidad escolar.En diversas ocasiones me he topado con el comentario en el cual usted nos considera a la vanguardia en enseÃ±anza por el hecho de contar con enciclomedia. Si sus palabras son sinceras, he de afirmar con todo respeto que se encuentra usted muy engaÃ±ado.Nuestro modelo educativo sigue siendo el mismo y el hecho de tener un pizarrÃ³n interactivo ligado a un enciclopedia no cambia en lo absoluto la forma en que nuestros alumnos aprenden (aprenden?). El modelo sigue siendo exactamente el mismo que en la reforma de los 70&#8217;s:* Un maestro al frente del salÃ³n* Un PizarrÃ³n donde plasmar conocimiento* Un grupo de alumnos intentando memorizar la mayor cantidad de informaciÃ³n posible.Esto inhabilita el que nuestros alumnos desarrollen todas las habilidades intelectuales que requieren para mejorar su calidad de vida.Probablemente nadie en latino-america lo tiene, porque han identificado a tiempo la diferencia entre educaciÃ³n y tecnologÃ­as de informaciÃ³n. No por obtener la tecnologÃ­a, nuestro modelo educativo obtendrÃ¡ las reformas requeridas ni elevara su calidad.Por otra parte la calidad del sistema es en realidad bastante cuestionable, costoso y poco sustentable.Es un desarrollo tecnolÃ³gico basado en software propietario que es costoso de mantener, desarrollar y actualizar. Hace uso de licencias de alto costo que no son requeridas para obtener los objetivos que nuestros alumnos necesitan (windows, office, encarta ???).El contenido del acervo de conocimiento sigue siendo propietario y cerrado, no facilita la creaciÃ³n y transferencia de nuevo conocimiento entre profesores y alumnos. Un claro ejemplo de una buena implementaciÃ³n de un acervo de conocimiento para educaciÃ³n es el del Estado de California, quienes haciendo uso de software libre y acervos abiertos, ahorran al aÃ±o USD$400,000,000.00 (un solo estado, mucho que el costo de todo enciclomedia).Para subsanar la brecha digital en el paÃ­s, los alumnos deberÃ­an de poder tener acceso a conocimiento abierto y ubicuo, no limitado solo al conocimiento propietario de una enciclopedia cerrada.Deben de poder leer escribir y compartir por si mismos, no estar subyugados a un pizarrÃ³n que no les permite tener una experiencia personal, y que en muchos de los casos nadie a su alrededor comprende como usar la tecnologÃ­a.No nos engaÃ±emos al creer que por haber invertido millones, y haber obtenido juguetes bonitos, estamos a la vanguardia de la educaciÃ³n, nuestra calidad sigue siendo muy inferior a la de los estÃ¡ndares mÃ­nimos internacionales. Nuestros alumnos no se alfabetizan en informÃ¡tica por ver un pizarrÃ³n, nuestros maestros no comprenden la tecnologÃ­a y no tienen acceso a capacitaciÃ³n. y lo mas peligroso es que nuestros alumnos no estÃ¡n desarrollando las competencias que necesitaran para competir en una economÃ­a globalizada.Incluso de haber implementado todo el proyecto sin ninguna anomalÃ­a, sin ningÃºn obstÃ¡culo y todo como se tenia planeado, seguirÃ­a siendo un fracaso educativo.No es innovativo, no es creativo y no aporta valor real alguno al desarrollo de nuestros alumnos. Existen actualmente tecnologÃ­as y soluciones gratuitas que hubieran permitido alcanzar los objetivos prometidos a un costo  mucho menor y con mucha mas eficiencia. Me parece que Nuestro Consejo de Ciencia y TecnologÃ­a sigue estando aÃ±os atrÃ¡s en materia de comprensiÃ³n tecnolÃ³gica, esto se trata de obtener la mejor educaciÃ³n, no intentar implementar la mejor y mas costosa tecnologÃ­a. DespuÃ©s de todas las irregularidades, pÃ©sima planeaciÃ³n, e implementaciÃ³n; el pedirnos a los mexicanos (sobre todo a los jÃ³venes) que impulsemos semejante iniciativa me resulta un gran descaro de su parte.Los jÃ³venes creemos en la innovaciÃ³n para la educaciÃ³n, en que podemos usar las tecnologÃ­as para renovar nuestro paÃ­s y mejorar nuestras sociedades. Confiamos en cientÃ­ficos e intelectuales, pero no creemos en un tono polÃ­tico de los 70&#8217;s en el cual obedecemos solo por obedecer. Somos jÃ³venes, no ingenuos.En nombre de todos los jÃ³venes de MÃ©xico, le pido que se invierta una mayor cantidad de esfuerzo en la planeaciÃ³n y conceptualizacion de proyecto de los cuales depende el futuro de nuestro paÃ­s. Si hemos de hacer esto, vamos a hacerlo bien.Queremos progresar, no estancarnos ni retroceder.Por un MÃ©xico mejor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://hj.ukini.org/wp-content/uploads/picture-2.png" id="image85" alt="searches001" />This have been some of the last searches, many of them regarding Enciclomedia.Im sorry to upset you guys, but i dont provide any content regarding enciclomedia mainly for the following reasons:<br />
<blockquote><strong>1. Its copyrighted</strong>: yes&#8230; indeed, and you might not distribute it for &#8220;el hermano mayor&#8221; would go sue-crazy on your ass. It seems someone thought that having closed and proprietary material for PUBLIC schools wasn&#8217;t a good idea.<strong>2. It&#8217;s based on commercial software:</strong> yes&#8230; you guessed it, good old balmer sold lots of licenses of windows, office and encarta to our schools so if you want content for your schools you would probably have to pay more for it. besides im unsure if uploading your own content to the platform is possible.<strong>3. I personally don&#8217;t endorse enciclomedia</strong>Even if it was open source, free and worked as they told it would. Goverment has invested big time in this technology, but has made a lot of mistakes of conceptions. Enciclomedia doesn&#8217;t change the way children learn nor help them develop requiered skills. If you revise the &#8220;white book&#8221; report of results, you might actually find that the children that used enciclomedia did worse than those who didn&#8217;t.</p></blockquote>
<p>It uses the same old paradigm of teacher and a blackboard and discourse. the only real difference is that now drawings are fancy and materials are even more expensive.If you are a teacher looking for material for your course i personally would tell you to go open. Nothing tells you care for your students like open knowledge. Give them <a href="http://getfirefox.net">firefox</a>, teach them how to use <a href="http://wikipedia.org/wiki">wikipedia</a> (damn install your own for your class) introduce them to mit&#8217;s open <a href="http://ocw.mit.edu/index.html">coursware</a>. If its not possible for you lack of internet you could always get a very cheap computer and install <a href="http://www.edubuntu.org/">edubuntu</a> and use <a href="http://openoffice.org/">open office</a> and previously downloaded content.Theres a complete world of open knowledge out there, please do free your children from governments burocracy. Help them build their very own knowledge and learn to be responsble for their education. hey you might even get interested in <a href="http://hj.ukini.org/ukini/">Ukini</a>.If you need any specific resources and references let us know, we will gladly help your school shift to open society paradigms.cheers and good look to all teachers</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Enciclomedia surgiÃ³ como un proyecto de tesis de ingenierÃ­a en computaciÃ³n en el Instituto TecnolÃ³gico AutÃ³nomo de MÃ©xico. Lo presentÃ³ Eliseo Steve RodrÃ­guez RodrÃ­guez luego de haber trabajado junto a Felipe Bracho y otros investigadores del Instituto PolitÃ©cnico Nacional en programas de innovaciÃ³n tecnolÃ³gica para la educaciÃ³n. Con el nombre de SARCRAD: Sistema de AdministraciÃ³n de Recursos Conceptuales y de ReferenciaciÃ³n AutÃ³mÃ¡tica Difusa. Enciclomedia: Una aplicaciÃ³n especÃ­fica, el creador del sistema presentÃ³ su examen el 29 de mayo de 2001 y obtuvo la menciÃ³n honorÃ­fica en su titulaciÃ³n. Como director adjunto de InvestigaciÃ³n Orientada en CONACYT, Felipe Bracho se encargÃ³ de difundir el proyecto y presentarlo al secretario de EducaciÃ³n PÃºblica, Reyes Tamez Guerra, y mÃ¡s tarde al propio presidente Vicente Fox, quien lo acogiÃ³ como el proyecto educativo sexenal.</p></blockquote>
<p>Fuente: wikipediaReyes Tamez Secretario de EducaciÃ³n PÃºblica al momento, firmÃ³ 14 contratos multianuales de servicios con una duraciÃ³n de 5 aÃ±os con 5 empresas integradoras que ganaron la licitaciÃ³n 00011001-28/06A. Para Junio de 2006 el proyecto a tenido un costo aproximado 3 millones 64 mil 146.6 pesos, habiendo sufrido ya dos recortes presupuestales y habiendo reduciendo las metas de cobertura de  390 mil 559 aulas a 165 mil aulas con una alcance de 3 millones 900 mil estudiantes en lugar de los 11 millones 700 mil inicialmente prometidos. El costo actual es de 6 mil 913 millones 977 mil 632 pesos.Adicionalmente despuÃ©s de una serie de evaluaciones y auditorias (Auditoria 034/05 de la SecretarÃ­a de la FunciÃ³n PÃºblica) a pesar de la gran inversiÃ³n, no existen indicadores para medir la eficiencia y eficacia en los avances de los objetivos del programa ni lineamientos de operaciÃ³n.De acuerdo al &#8220;Libro Blanco&#8221; del reporte de Enciclomedia, no hubo diferencias significativas en el desarrollo de habilidades de conocimiento, aplicaciÃ³n y evaluaciÃ³n de los contenidos entre aquellos alumnos que tuvieron acceso a enciclomedia y aquellos que no.Los niÃ±os de sexto de primaria que no utilizaron esa tecnologÃ­a tuvieron un mejor conocimiento al lograr 1.48 puntos sobre 1.23 de quienes sÃ­ tuvieron esa herramienta, mientras que en la aplicaciÃ³n de los contenidos aprendidos, los primeros obtuvieron 2.15 puntos contra 2.11 de quienes sÃ­ tuvieron esa herramienta Y los de quinto aÃ±o sin Enciclomedia fueron mejor evaluados con 2 puntos sobre 1.83 de sus compaÃ±eros con dicho equipo.Fuente el libro blanco de Enciclomedia &#8211; SEPEsto demuestra que la implementaciÃ³n mal planeada de la tecnologÃ­a ha resultado contraproducente en el rendimiento de los alumnos.El Propio Fernando Reimers, coordinador de la evaluaciÃ³n y del libro, designado por la SEP afirmo que los maestros no saben hacer uso de las herramientas y los materiales no estÃ¡n siendo utilizados para promover el desarrollo del pensamiento critico en los alumnos.<br />
<blockquote>&#8220;La mayor dificultad para el maestro estÃ¡ en quiÃ©n le ofrece de manera prÃ¡ctica una estructuraciÃ³n de los contenidos dados en ese mar de recursos que por sÃ­ mismo son atractivos, pero que no necesariamente estÃ¡n ligados a las actividades que el alumno debe realizar para asegurar un aprendizaje&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Otro de los grandes factores del fracaso del proyecto ha sido la casi nula capacitaciÃ³n que han recibido los maestros con respecto al uso de la tecnologÃ­a. Juan Manuel Lopez Garduno, especialista el sistemas didÃ¡cticos afirmo que es necesaria una capacitaciÃ³n mÃ­nima de 20 a 30 horas para lograr un cambio significativo o siquiera un apoyo real a la enseÃ±aza<br />
<blockquote>&#8220;Una cosa es la capacitaciÃ³n tÃ©cnica del uso del equipo, que puede lograrse de manera limitada en dos horas, y otra es la capacitacion pedagogica para que, con el nuevo software educativo, se pueda transformar la forma de dar clases de los maestros&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Dicho concepto fue reafirmado por la profesora de Harvard, Ilona Holland quien fue invitada al informe del Presidente Vicente Fox, sin embargo Holland afirma que es necesaria por lo menos 100 horas para operar correctamente el software, a pesar de esto los maestros recibieron entre 4 a 10 horas de capacitaciÃ³n.Otro ejemplo de la ineficiencia y falta de visiÃ³n del proyecto son los incidentes de implementaciÃ³n, en los cuales miles de pesos han sido literalmente desperdiciados por la falta de un estudio objetivo de los requerimientos reales de los alumnos e imposiciÃ³n centralizada del programa.   SegÃºn reporta, JesÃºs MartÃ­nez Zavala, director regional de AdministraciÃ³n Educativa de la SecretarÃ­a de EducaciÃ³n de Durango, han sido instaladas en mas de 300 comunidades rurales equipos de enciclomedia en la sierra de Durango, sin embargo estas son completamente inÃºtiles ya que las escuelas carecen de electricidad.Dorothy Walker, corresponsal de &#8220;The Guardian&#8221;, Londres reporto en una de las visitas de BESA (AsociaciÃ³n BritÃ¡nica de Proveedores Educacionales) a MÃ©xico:<br />
<blockquote>Las personas no viajan para intercambiar notas sobre tecnologÃ­a, las personas vienen para ver notas sobre mejores practicas [...] una liga hacia las mejores practicas es fundamental, no se trata de decirles a las personas que hacer, se trata de decir &#8220;esto es lo que funciona para nosotros, y esto es lo que no, y es por esto.&#8221; [...] &#8220;HabÃ­a muchos asuntos: la pobreza falta de infraestructura y el tamaÃ±o del paÃ­s, sin embargo habÃ­a una gran voluntad por parte de MÃ©xico para empujar la tecnologÃ­a&#8221;[...] Lograron (El Gobierno) conocer a las personas indicadas para que ser sus proveedores de tecnologÃ­a, y entre mas aprendÃ­an de las posibilidades, se emocionaban mas y mas, asÃ­ fue como naciÃ³ Enciclomedia&#8221; [...] Vieron como podÃ­an usar el poder de la multimedia para ayudar en lugares en los que los niÃ±os usaban libros de texto, vieron como el uso de in pizarrÃ³n interactivo podrÃ­a usarse en un salÃ³n de clases y dijeron: Tenemos que tener esos&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>SegÃºn el propio libro blanco de Enciclopedia<br />
<blockquote>La polÃ­tica de informÃ¡tica educativa para la educaciÃ³n bÃ¡sica se concibe como:a)    coherente y articulada;b)    equitativa;c)    incluyente, tanto en el sentido de los esfuerzos de otras instancias -estatales, federales, y privadas- como en el de incorporar las necesidades educativas especiales, de educaciÃ³n indÃ­gena, de grupos emigrantes d) orientada mediante una visiÃ³n integran, tanto en relaciÃ³n con los agentes que intervienen como con el currÃ­culo;d)    impulsa la corresponsabilidad de todos los sectores y personas involucradas;e)    sustentable;f)    promotora de la transparencia, la evaluaciÃ³n y la rendiciÃ³n de cuentas y;g)    eficazEn este marco se desarrolla el Programa EnciclomediaEl desarrollo de enciclomedia se baso en innumerables estudios e investigaciones a nivel mundial, que concluyen que el aprovechamiento efectivo de las potencialidades de las nuevas tecnologÃ­as esta en relaciÃ³n directa con la existencia de un proyecto pedagÃ³gico escolar, que implique competencias especificas en los profesores.</p></blockquote>
<p>Tomando como referencia su propio marco, el proyecto no ha logrado subsanar aquellos principios sobre los cuales se ha fundado, a excepciÃ³n del punto â€œf) transparenciaâ€.<br />
<h3>ConclusiÃ³n:</h3>
<p>El proyecto difÃ­cilmente se puede catalogar distinto a un fracaso y perdida de inversiÃ³n. Este tipo de incidentes se sucitan cuando se centra la educaciÃ³n entorno a la implementaciÃ³n de las herramientas tecnolÃ³gicas y no en el desarrollo de nuevos mÃ©todos que modifiquen la forma en que los alumnos desarrollan habilidades de comprensiÃ³n y abstracciÃ³n del conocimiento, una evoluciÃ³n de los patrones y comportamiento de los procesos de enseÃ±anza y aprendizaje. La enseÃ±anza y el Aprendizaje deben de ser el foco de las innovaciones no las herramientas tecnolÃ³gicas ni la reestructuraciÃ³n de las organizaciones. Enciclomedia ha sido un proyecto de desarrollo tecnolÃ³gico, no un proyecto de educaciÃ³n.Descarga <a href="http://hj.ukini.org/a%20libro%20blanco%20enciclomedia%20v2.pdf" title="El Libro Blanco" id="p81">El Libro Blanco</a></p>
