Le ministère de l’Éducation, à la recommandation du Comité consultatif du Programme d’achat de logiciels de l’Ontario (CCPALO), a conclu une entente pour un nouvel organisateur graphique infonuagique qui permet aux élèves de créer des cartes conceptuelles en ligne, de façon collaborative ou de façon autonome. Il y a quelques options pour accéder à cet outil. Veuillez communiquer avec votre représentant DSO pour plus de renseignements.
The Ministry of Education, on the advice of the Ontario Software Acquisition Advisory Committee (OSAPAC), has licensed a new Online Graphic Organizer which allows students to create mind maps online, either collaboratively or by themselves.
There are several ways in which teachers and students can gain access to this exciting new tool.

The digital domain is changing how students perceive, interact with, and respond to the world. Innovations in technology have provided new opportunities for learning, both in and out of school, and have enabled students to connect to learning communities around the world. Social media is an immersive environment that can no longer be ignored if schools are to remain relevant. These innovations call for the development of new knowledge, skills and social behaviours to ensure that these tools are used in responsible and ethical ways.
In order to help instructional leaders, administrators, teachers, and other educators understand how Ministry-licensed digital resources can be used to help facilitate and support evolving classroom practices, OSAPAC has developed some scaffolded supports around licensed products. The SAMR model provides a useful framework to help identify opportunities for learning that are afforded by technology.
