Dr. Seuss Went to War - 0 views

  •  
    In Module 3 of my class on "The Politics of Dr. Seuss," we will be exploring the political cartoons that Dr. Seuss and others produced during World War 2. These cartoons mostly appeared in PM, a New York newspaper, from 1941 to 1943. I discovered these cartoons in a book called Dr. Seuss & Co. Go to War, and I had planned to scan and upload cartoons from the book. But I searched in MERLOT and was so pleased to find a treasure trove of hundreds of cartoons! I can draw on these for my Powerpoint presentation to the class and direct students to this website to find even more.

    Wow! This will be a great activity for my course! It takes students way back to a part of the Grateful dead's music influences that doesn't get much credit- at least in New York State!

    My annotations, highlights and stick notes for this resource can be found on MY Library on Diigo. For some reason, all my annotations are not showing up here on our group page. Anyone know why?

Teaching versus training - 0 views

  • Last term I asked my students to provide feedback on the software engineering course I teach. One student reported that, although he liked the course and appreciated that I'd spent most of my career in the "real world," many times he felt that I was doing corporate training rather than teaching.
  • For many years of my business career, it was my responsibility to train clients on the best ways to use the products and services my company sold them. My student's remarks led me to ask myself many questions. Was I really still behaving like a trainer? What assumptions was I making about teaching and my primary responsibility to my students? And fundamentally, what is the difference between teaching and training? In this column I'd like to share my thoughts on these issues and examine how teaching and training are viewed differently in the halls of academia from in corporate boardrooms. Perhaps this will help you think constructively about what your organization values in its employees and what it does to further their professional development.

  • Everything we do in our lives requires a balance between two things or more - a compromise. This column talks about the balance between theory and practice, so it is appropriate to consider that balance with respect to training and teaching. In my January 2004 column, I explained how I am seeking the right blend of theory and practice in my software development courses. My primary job is to prepare students for the rest of their working lives and help them succeed in their careers. So I first have to ensure that they learn fundamental principles and then teach them to use specific tools and techniques as time allows.

      Mode of sharing being of the utmost importance.
  • concept Shared cognition emphasises the mutual understanding of collaborators' perspectives and shared interpretations of the problem as an essential requirement of collaboration
  • very important that cooperating subjects acquire a common frame of reference to communicate their individual viewpoints

  • knowledge is arranged in networks with meaningful connections between nodes.
  • hared cognition is built upon the individual inputs in the collaborative process. Representing their cognitive structures and negotiating about the meaning of concepts, individuals reach a common vision on the problem.
  • Shared cognition at the same is the way a group contributes to "personal meaning" at the level of individual students
  • shared cognition is substantial for cognitive construction and reconstruction and that concept mapping is an effective tool for mediating computer-supported collaboration
  • orm in which knowledge is shared strongly influences the process of shaping, and shared cognition subsequently influences the effectiveness of collaborative learning

Scholarly Communications @ Duke » Transformation and teaching - 0 views

  •  
    "ransformative uses are, broadly speaking, uses of copyrighted works which create something new that has a different purpose than the original work involved. Transformative works are often identified as those which do not create any kind of market competition with the original work. Thus a parody of a 1950's classic song by a 1980's rap group is a transformative use of the original, and an historical work about the Grateful Dead makes a transformative use of original concert posters for Dead concerts when it uses them to illustrate a time line. "
  •  
    "transformative"? The line is so blurry there. Just how much musical material do you have to use from another recording before it is "ripping off"? Otherwise, one of my project options for my final project is for a student to create a concert poster in the style of 1960s Fillmore/Winterland posters that illustrate a concept map of what the student has learned.

Guns Germs & Steel: The Show. Overview | PBS - 0 views

  • Inspired by a question put to him on the island of Papua New Guinea more than thirty years ago, Diamond embarks on a world-wide quest to understand the roots of global inequality.
    • Jeanne Cousineau
       
      These are some of the main questions Diamond answers in his book, Guns, Germs, and Steel. He theorizes that due to the east-west axis of Asia/ Europe (which would include its favorable climate, terrain, and ease of sharing and borrowing technology), the availability of domesticable plants and animals, to name a few, this area had all the right ingredients to be successful, as opposed to the Americas/Africa. The latter had few domesticable animals, a north-south axis, and a difficult terrain for "sharing", to name a few. We will all need to dive further into his book and these sites to uncover all of the necessities that helped some succeed over others.

    i see your bookmarks in diigo, nicely done! now incorporate the things you bookmarked into a post with links directly to the source urls, not to diigo. (Think of diigo as our shared library where we keep/organize all our links, tagged so we can find them later easily if we want.) in your post link to the source url, on which will be your diigo comments, highlights, and stickies making your post 100% richer. (view all bookmarks and then you can see the list of bookmark tags. Also, what do you thing of tagging things with "module 1" and so on so you can isolate all the resources you bookmark in the course by course module? Think about what will make the tool useful to you today and tomorrow, and what will make it useful to the rest of us in the course. I am very interested in exploring the potential of this tool with your help and in having you tests its features and functionality and push the limits as we kick its tires.
