4. The research behind the NMC Technology Outlook for STEM+ Education
2013-2018 is a collaboration between the New Media Consortium and
the Centro Superior para la Enseñanza Virtual (CSEV), Departamento
de IngenieríaEléctrica, Electrónica y de Control at The Universidad
Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED), and The Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers Education Society (IEEE)
The project was made possible by a grant from the Centro Superior
para la Enseñanza Virtual (CSEV), whose generous support is very much
appreciated. This presentation was hosted by eMadrid.

15. Education paradigms are shifting to include online
learning, hybrid learning, and collaborative models.
Citizen science projects increasingly provide formal
students and lifelong learners the opportunity to
participate and learn in real STEM projects.
As the abundance of resources and relationships
made easily accessible via the Internet grows, we
are continuously challenged to revisit our roles.
Increasingly, students want to use their own
technology for learning.
From rapid prototyping with 3D printers to building
simple circuits and robots, “Making” is now more
affordable and accessible than ever.
16. The demand for personalized learning is not
adequately supported.
Appropriate metrics of evaluation lag the
emergence of new scholarly forms of authoring,
publishing, and researching.
Most academics are not using new and compelling
technologies for learning and teaching, nor for
organizing their own research.
Faculty training still does not t digital media
literacy’s importance as a key STEM skill.
We need to allow easy sharing of online
experiments among institutions.
