4. Quality
educa,on
of
people
is
closely
linked
to
the
prosperity
and
progress
of
the
socie,es
to
which
they
belong.
MATGRAN
develop
ICT
and
AI
based
tools
with
the
aim
to
contribute
to
the
growth
of
our
society.

5. In traditional classrooms, students
complete a lesson and move on to the
next when is it time for the whole class
to do, regardless of whether they have
mastered it or they are already well
ahead.!

6. We
should
no
aim
to
replace
the
physical
classroom.
Instead
we
have
an
opportunity
to
blend
the
virtual
with
the
physical
and
reimagine
educa9on
en9rely.
(Arne
Duncan)

7. Virtual
tools
are
providing
an
opportunity
to
rethink
this
methodology.
(Salman
Khan)

8. In
this
“blended
learning”
reality,
the
professor’s
rule
is
moved
up
the
value
chain:
-­‐ Time
of
lecturing,
wri9ng
exams
and
grading
them
VS.
Interact
with
students
-­‐
Enforcing
sit
and
listen
passivity
VS.
mentor
and
challenge
the
students
to
take
control
of
their
own
learning
(perhaps
the
most
important
skill
of
all)
(Salman
Khan)
