If you build it, will they come? How researchers perceive and use web 2.0

"Again, the mission is not to review or try every single one (that would be madness, I know), but pick one that sounds interesting and see if you can produce something. I have used each tool to produce an example of the original Dominoe story, plus links are provided, where available, to examples by other people. Please share your own examples or thoughts in the discussion area of this wiki." Therefor this wiki starts - and there you will find a lot lot lot of thisngs about Storys and How to embed them in educational scenarios

I struggle with audio especially when I'm out of a controlled environment. I often like to make videos on the road at events - usually in a noisy conference hall with high ceilings. This is a less than ideal recording situation. So, I thought I'd round up a bunch of different microphones at work and compare them for you. Matt Pierce, the Training Manager, and I headed to our soundbooth and tested 6 different microphones. We used Audacity to record the audio at 44,100Hz. We tried to have as much consistency as possible, but we had to adjust the audio levels on each microphone. You will see in the screencast what level we recorded at. Also, I made the links a hotspot in the video, so you can click them if you'd like more info about the microphone. The screencast is short - running 1:30.

If you are interested in TV- Animation take a look at http://www.animotionmeat.com from Jon Hooper and Steve Kellener. "Television Animation Some helpful information when dealing with television animation production. "

One of the most common questions designers ask is around recording hardware and microphones. While recommendations are one way to go, sometimes just posting samples with short descriptions of hardware used is more beneficial. I invite you to share your audio recording set up in this thread and include some examples if you like.

In the Daily Galaxy: "Although It has taken homo sapiens several million years to evolve from the apes, the useful information in our DNA, has probably changed by only a few million bits. So the rate of biological evolution in humans, Stephen Hawking points out in his Life in the Universe lecture,  is about a bit a year. "By contrast," Hawking says, "there are about 50,000 new books published in the English language each year, containing of the order of a hundred billion bits of information. Of course, the great majority of this information is garbage, and no use to any form of life. But, even so, the rate at which useful information can be added is millions, if not billions, higher than with DNA." Thanx to @JulianEdward pointing me to this!

So sollten wir an manch andere Probleme auch heran gehen. Mich erinnert das (angeregt durch den Hinweis bei René Scheppler) an den Startartikel in der Online-Zeitschrift CITE (Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education) von 2000, wo Thomas G. Carroll die Frage stellte: If we didn't have the schools we have today, would we create the schools we have today? Abgesehen von seiner Darstellung, wie schulisches Lernen heute schon aussehen und organisiert weden könnte, macht er auch darauf aufmerksam, dass andere Schulen zwingend eine andere Lehrerausbildung voraussetzen
