Being that everyone is so busy these days with instruction, I thought I would ask again who plans to attend LiSUG 2008 and whether or not an open meeting for LIC/WGIL is a possibility. Please respond back to the group.

The Myth of Wikipedia Democracy - Page 1 - The Daily Beast - 0 views
-
"The idea that a lot of people have of Wikipedia is that it's some emergent phenomenon—the wisdom of crowds, swarm intelligence, that sort of thing… like we're a lot of ants, working in an anthill," Jimmy Wales, the site's co-founder, has said. "It's kind of a neat analogy, but it turns out it's actually not much true."

"The idea that a lot of people have of Wikipedia is that it's some emergent phenomenon—the wisdom of crowds, swarm intelligence, that sort of thing… like we're a lot of ants, working in an anthill," Jimmy Wales, the site's co-founder, has said. "It's kind of a neat analogy, but it turns out it's actually not much true."
Wales examined the numbers several years ago and was surprised to learn that the most active 2 percent of users had performed nearly 75 percent of the edits on the site. "There's this tight community that is actually doing the bulk of all the editing," he said. "I know all of them, and they all know each other."
-
l Street Journal reported that a growing number of Wikipedia's editors are throwing in the towel, fed up with the many rules the site has instituted as it has matured. The story suggested the exodus could threaten "the brand of democratization that Wikipedia helped to unleash over the Internet—the empowerment of the amateur."

Digital Literacy is...
Digital literacy is the ability to find, evaluate, utilize, and create information using digital technology. As a Cornell student, activities including writing papers, creating multimedia presentations, and posting information about yourself or others online are all a part of your day-to-day life, and all of these activities require varying degrees of digital literacy. Is simply knowing how to do these things enough? No-there's more to it than that. -
A very well done site. Although I am left wondering why they call it "digital" literacy when it is mainly about scholarship and academic levels of literacy in a world that happens to be networked.

kitchen sink vs minimalist instruction methods for one-shots.

I am definitely a minimalist according to this article. I concentrate on a few key methods, with some variations depending on how much information I have about the one shot class I am about to teach.

from Thinkmap Visual Thesaurus: paste text in and it analyzes text, creates tag cloud, shows main subjects falls under, etc. Perhaps there is a way to use this to discuss concept of controlled vocabulary?
-
I use Visual Thesaurus for my library instruction all the time, but I never noticed the VocabGrabber. I will have to try it out and see if I can incorporate into my instruction as well :)
