The community is the curriculum - 0 views

  • “In the rhizomatic model of learning, curriculum is not driven by predefined inputs from experts; it is constructed and negotiated in real time by the contributions of those engaged in the learning process. This community acts as the curriculum, spontaneously shaping, constructing, and reconstructing itself and the subject of its learning..”

BBC NEWS | Technology | Learning from technology - 0 views

  • Becta's "Next Generation Learning" campaign aims to improve the way schools and colleges use technology for learning, and a key part of this drive is about raising awareness among parents of the benefits of technology and the internet, while encouraging them to stay safe online. There is a huge amount of advice and guidance available for parents to ensure their children are protected in the virtual world. Organisations like the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) and Stay Safe Online, for example, are working hard to help parents understand more about what their children are doing on the web.

Similarity Heuristics, Iterative Methodologies and the Emergence of the Moder... - 0 views

  •  
    Julian Orr wrote a book called 'Talking About Machines' where he describe the way that photocopier technicians learned their trade. It seems to me that the process as he described it was a complex of similarity heuristics, but combined in a network of other technicians who had particular areas of expertise. Orr was riffing on the work of Lave and Wenger 'Legitimate Peripheral Participation' and John Seely Brown.

Thomson Suing Zotero - 0 views

  •  
    I own a licensed copy of Endnote. I had a few years of references built up in Endnote but I was having problems with updates and loosing reference files and the application locking up. Support was terrible. Endnote was clunky bloatware but I used it because it was the best available at the time and I had a lot of references stored. I spent hours just keeping the Endnote application in shape. I learned that I really needed to save my Endnote files on a regular basis other wise I had to do a lot of recreating, more hours of my labour. I saved the files in a non-proprietary format and consider it my stuff I was so pleased when I discovered Zotero. It worked. A couple of times when I had issues getting it set up I contacted the developers and they got right back to me so I have been a big fan ever since. I was able to open my saved reference files in Zotero and concentrate on using my references rather that maintaining an application. It will be interesting to see how this plays out but there are some very good arguments to suggest that this is a frivolous and predatory lawsuit. I hope GMU sticks to it. If TR wants to maintain it's customer base, make a better product.

Clark Aldrich's blog: Using assessments to evaluate action, not knowledge - 0 views

  • Now, in theory, doing a 360 assessment (asking the people around the student, both before the formal learning program and, oh, six months after, for evaluations of behavior) is a pretty good technique. But 360's are also intrusive.
  • The bad news is that, well, who cares if someone can intellectually differentiate between different leadership styles? That is so old school. Further, simpler programs may get the same result, even if the knowledge is never used, (and the knowledge gleaned from old school programs also decays much more quickly after the program ends).
  • Multiple-choice questionnaires are biased towards proving what one knows, as opposed to presenting what one does. But I believe with some hacking of the medium, we can create better evaluations to guide us towards more productive programs.
  •  
    We should evaluate actions, rather than 'knowledge' (where 'knowledge' here means 'remembered instances of data'). We should evaluate actions is that we are able to get at more finely-grained sub-symbolic mental development, and not simply a small set of memorized facts.
  •  
    Worth considering when thinking about assessment of authentic learning. We should evaluate actions, rather than 'knowledge' (where 'knowledge' here means 'remembered instances of data').
