International fostering of social connectivity

This is an ancient format! With new wording .

Edupunk is an approach to teaching and learning practices that result from a do it yourself attitude and the avoidance of mainstream educational tools. and processes.

Hi Joanne, Check out the Edupunks' Guide at http://www.edupunksguide.org/ A comprehensive guide to learning online and charting a personalized path to an affordable credential using the latest innovative tools and organizations.

The more freedom and self directed learning the better I say, but what about bona fide credentials for the stiff upper lips of the world? This is a great site with step by step and tutorials. It all starts with research and wanting and learning to learn...

As I slog through APA formatting, I found their guidance on how to source wkis very interesting: "Please note that the APA Style Guide to Electronic References warns writers that wikis (like Wikipedia, for example) are collaborative projects that cannot guarantee the verifiability or expertise of their entries." - It sounds like Purdue doesn't overly value connected knowledge!

Thanks for sharing Joanne - I have used the purdue owl quite a few times over the years but have never had to reference a wiki. Our of interest I think I'll take a look at the APA style guide tomorrow and see if they are similarly sceptical...

Thank you for posting Joanne, you beat me to the punch. I use this site often for paper writing and was wondering why it wasnt posted sooner.

Excellent video presentation

Given that our week 5 topic is "Groups, Networks and Collectives" I thought that this blog from Tamarack Institute on Community Engagement about seeking community was interesting.

Never thought of this when I was in formal schooling. What a great idea to simplify and stay ahead of note taking in class.

I love mind maps I have been making them since I was 13. People called it "doodling" and disregarded it or viewed it as art. I kept some from my youth and when I look back and reflect on them I can see WHY I drew the images and linked them the way I did, they are like a visual diary of what I was going through at the time.

A Manifesto for Quiet Brilliance: Scientific American

Loved the arcticle. I don't agree that society 'grades on the curve', so to speak, for extroverts. Being an introvert myself I like to think it doesn't anyway.

Two weeks ago I wrote about Chill which is kind of like Pinterest for videos. This morning I started trying another service for sharing and discovering video content. That service is Plizy. Plizy is a service that allows you to browse for and save videos to playback later on your iPad or Android tablet.
