There are few experiences using Social Web (or Web 2.0) for collaborative learning in public schools of Chile; therefore this is an emerging challenge for professors of the techno-pedagogical units. This article describes innovation strategies that incorporate Social Web tools in the formal education process in Chile. Using scholar ethnographies we describe 26 different classrooms experiences (between 2010 and 2012) using YouTube (for secondary schools) and GigaPan (for primary schools) to teach history and language contents, respectively. The main conclusions show the motivational drive that the Social Web provides in the regular classroom setting. The teachers valued positively the result of the students work groups, and the exchange of experiences among groups.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...
