Is technology changing how students learn? - Daniel Willingham - 0 views

  • a lot of psychologists are actually skeptical that digital media are likely to fundamentally change the fundamentals of human cognition.
  • Steven Pinker has written "Electronic media aren't going to revamp the brain's mechanisms of information processing." I made the same argument here.
  • he basic architecture is likely to be relatively fixed, and in the absence of extreme deprivation, will develop fairly predictably.

  • Rather, the seemingly shorter attention span is their ability to maintain attention on a task that is not very interesting to them.
  • The second is the willingness to do so.
  • It's much easier for me to accept that one's beliefs--beliefs about what is worthy of my attention, beliefs about how much effort I should dispense to tasks--can be moved around, because beliefs are a product of experience.

The Connected Workplace | Harold Jarche - 1 views

  • learning amongst ourselves is the real work in organizations today
  • social learning is how work gets done
  • Personal knowledge management (PKM) skills can help to make sense of, and learn from, the constant stream of information that workers encounter from social channels both inside and outside the organization.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • PKM is a process of filtering, creating, and discerning, and it also helps manage individual professional development through continuous learning.
  • Work is changing and so organizational learning must change. There is an urgent need for organizational support functions (HR, OD, KM, Training) to move beyond offering training services and toward supporting learning as it is happening in the digitally connected workplace. The connected workplace will not wait for the training department to catch up.

    "The test of life is not whether we can remember what we learn in school, but whether we are prepared for change," says Schleicher. "Whether we are prepared for jobs that haven't been created and to use technology that haven't been invented to solve problems we just can't anticipate today."

4 Emerging Technologies With Educational Potential | Fluency21 - Committed Sardine Blog - 1 views

  • Technology seems to change as quickly as it is purchased and implemented in classrooms. And while this constant change is at times a source of frustration to technology directors and IT staff, emerging technologies have big implications for learning inside–and outside–of the classroom.

Data Use Policy | Facebook - 0 views

  • Whenever you post content (like a status update, photo or check-in), you can select a specific audience, or even customize your audience.
  • If you do not make a selection, your information will be shared with the last audience you selected. If you want to change your selection later you can do that too on your profile.
  • If you tag someone, that person and their friends can see your post no matter what audience you selected.

  • As a general rule, you should assume that if you do not see a sharing icon, the information will be publicly available.
  • You can control who can see the Facebook Pages you've "liked" by visiting your profile and clicking "Edit Profile."
  • Always think before you post. Just like anything else you post on the web or send in an email, information you share on Facebook can be copied or re-shared by anyone who can see it.
  • When someone tags you in a post (such as a photo, status update or check-in), you can choose whether you want that post to appear on your profile.
  • Some things (like your name and profile picture) do not have sharing icons because they are always publicly available. As a general rule, you should assume that if you do not see a sharing icon, the information will be publicly available.
  • A tag is a link to your profile. For example, if you are tagged in a post (such as a photo or a status update), that post will contain a link to your profile. If someone clicks on the link, they will see your public information and anything else you let them see.
  • Anyone can tag you in anything.
  • If you do not want someone to tag you in their posts, we encourage you to reach out to them and give them that feedback. If that does not work, you can block them. This will prevent them from tagging you going forward.
  • Because Pages are public, information you share with a Page is public information.
  • When you "like" a Page, you create a connection to that Page. That connection is added to your profile and your friends may see it in their News Feeds.
