¿Qué es el aprendizaje invertido?

    El aprendizaje invertido (conocido por el nombre de flipped learning, en inglés) es un método de aprendizaje semi presencial que consiste en dictar las lecciones fuera del salón de clase, por ejemplo a través de la modalidad a distancia, y utilizar las clases presenciales para practicar y aplicar esos nuevos conceptos, a través de actividades prácticas o debates.

    El cometido de esta propuesta es esencialmente asegurarse de que los alumnos hayan comprendido verdaderamente lo que se les ha enseñado, sacar el máximo provecho del tiempo limitado que estos comparten junto a los profesores, y sobre todo, involucrarlos activamente en el proceso de aprendizaje y favorecer el pensamiento crítico.

    Para que logres comprenderlo con mayor facilidad, a continuación enumeramos las cuatro claves del aprendizaje invertido:

1- Ofrece ambientes flexibles, es decir, permite a los estudiantes elegir dónde y cuándo aprender. 2- Propone un cambio en la cultura del aprendizaje.
3- Selecciona los contenidos y los métodos a utilizar de forma intencional.
4- Requiere docentes cualificados, observadores y comunicativos.

Cabe destacar que si bien este novedoso modelo posee numerosas virtudes, su implementación también supone desafíos: demanda un gran esfuerzo y dedicación por parte de los profesores y los alumnos, exige atender la brecha digital y requiere investigación para definir cómo maximizar su potencial. Asimismo, los docentes deben prepararse para responder a las reacciones de aquellos estudiantes influenciados por la herencia de la educación tradicional, quienes podrían emitir opiniones poco favorables, por ejemplo “¿Por qué estoy pagando tanto para aprender por mi cuenta?” o “El profesor no enseña, solo espera que hagas todo tú mismo”.

Otros desafíos que presenta la educación invertida, sobre todo para los docentes, es que exige habilidades como la creación de videos atractivos y que motiven al estudiante. Por otra parte, según publica el sitio Teach Hub, algunos docentes comentaron que en ciertos casos es más sencillo explicar las cosas estando cara a cara, y que en el modelo tradicional solo basta con observar a los alumnos para tener cierto feedback; mientras que en la etapa de consumo del video esto último no es posible

Read the text below to answer the question.


How octopuses ‘taste’ things by touching


   Octopus arms have minds of their own. Each of these eight supple yet powerful limbs can explore the seafloor in search of prey, snatching crabs from hiding spots without direction from the octopus’ brain. But how each arm can tell what it’s grasping has remained a mystery.

   Now, researchers have identified specialized cells not seen in other animals that allow octopuses to “taste” with their arms. Embedded in the suckers, these cells enable the arms to do double duty of touch and taste by detecting chemicals produced by many aquatic creatures. This may help an arm quickly distinguish food from rocks or poisonous prey, Harvard University molecular biologist Nicholas Bellono and his colleagues report online October 29 in Cell.

   The findings provide another clue about the unique evolutionary path octopuses have taken toward intelligence. Instead of being concentrated in the brain, two-thirds of the nerve cells in an octopus are distributed among the arms, allowing the flexible appendages to operate semiindependently.
