  • As rich web applications are being built with larger JavaScript code bases, the need for JavaScript compression to keep bandwidth and page load times as small as possible is becoming more important for faster load times and more enjoyable user experiences.
  • Which JavaScript Compressor is the best? That can be a tough question to answer and in many cases it depends on your application. This tool can compress Javascript with several of the most popular JavaScript compressors, simultaneously and show you a detailed visual analysis of the results

The course would take in 40 students. Reports added that RP hoped to increase its academic intake in the next academic year. RP would be launching two other new diplomas, the Diploma in Consumer Behaviour and Research and the Diploma in Sports Coaching. RP would also be giving out 200 scholarships for the first time in the next academic year and each scholarship was worth $2,500 per academic year. ZB carried comments from P/RP that with more new courses and the new scholarships, RP was confident that it would attract outstanding Singaporean students to study at the polytechnic. CNA Online noted that RP said the new diplomas targeted students with an interest in the growing sports, marketing and mobile industries.

  • Sending information in advance has obvious benefits, including more time for: research, formulating ideas, and asking other people about their points of view to inform a better discussion. Perhaps more significantly it allows those who are naturally quiet or introspective to contribute more meaningfully.
  • I’m not arguing that we should ditch technology in the workplace, or for our meetings. Technology has its place in work; of course it does. But as with all things, technology should be there to support human connection — not get in the way of it.

  • In recent weeks, Facebook has told us on two occasions about its teen-appeal problem. When it filed its annual report, it warned investors for the first time that younger users are turning to other services, particularly Instagram, as a substitute for Facebook.
  • "Teens recognized Instagram as a social network before anyone else," Solis said. "Everyone else treated it as a camera app."

shared by Kartini Ishak on 05 Apr 13 - No Cached
  • A recent study of Google+ showed that it is more popular with parents than students,  which could be a favorable indicator of how popular it is for those educators of the same generation.
  • One example of how teachers are using Google+ Pages to run their classrooms, is that of Mr. McDowell who teaches World History at West Hills High School. Mr. McDowell has made great use of Google’s tools to give students access to documents, schedules, presentations, videos and password protected areas like attendance and grade records.
  • access to Google+ tools and pages from any computer promotes interactivity on the site and is a big hit with educators

  • Facebook doesn’t offer a platform that supports real-time interactions and information sharing like Google+.
  • Google+ still has a learning curve for all users
  • Google+ Pages provides control for sharing information by allowing you to sort your contacts into “circles”.
  • This provides a new dynamic in which great opportunities for tutoring can thrive.
  • create custom “hangouts” which brings people from within your circles that you select, to interact in a virtual room together.

      Dr Ashley, I agree with you and posting a question at the beginning of the video is an excellent strategy. That is how I learn. I need to know the question upfront so that I know what to pay attention to in the video.
  • Embed short graded or self-assessments either in the video itself, or at the end of each video. Including one or two multiple-choice questions or requests to post to a forum—either between scenes (using a post-production editing tool such as Camtasia or Captivate) or after the video—alerts students to the “take homes” they should be getting from the material. It also helps teachers assess, at point of contact, whether students understand the major concepts.

      This (self assessment) is absolutely necessary to give learning a chance to happen, as we develop open learning courses. This applies to Google Sites training resources out there.

    This seems to be the granddaddy of mVideo and mAPT. But for now, from what I can see, it still works on a post-processing scale - i.e. record, and THEN annotate, not allowing you to add comments or tags in real-time. (Yet.) But it seems like a very good source of revenue, offering educational licenses, etc.

research video annotation flipped-classroom

shared by yeuann on 14 Apr 13 - No Cached
  • Recent efforts by organizations like Coursera, edX, Udacity and Khan Academy have produced thousands of educational videos logging hundreds of millions of views in their attempt to make learning freely available to the masses. While the presentation style of the videos varies depending on the author, they all share a common drawback: videos are time-consuming to produce and cannot be easily modified after release. With that in mind, we present VidWiki, an online platform to leverage the massive numbers of online students viewing videos to iteratively improve video presentation quality and content, similar to other crowdsourced information projects like Wikipedia. Through the platform, users annotate videos by overlaying content on top of the video, lifting the burden on the instructor to update and refine content.

social media success tips

shared by Kartini Ishak on 19 Feb 13 - No Cached
  • Social media is win-win.
  • Everything you say can be used against you, especially if you offend someone.  Be on your best behavior and interact from a professional position, not a personal one.
  • Interact and maintain dialogue.  If someone messages you, reply – take part in open discussions. Take the time to show appreciate for all manner of feedback, whether it is positive or negative.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Update your profile on a regular basis so your company information is current and regularly informative.
  • Customize your site and your landing page for your social media account if the site permit it.  Do what you can to stand out from those around you.
  • Maintain quality over quantity.  It helps to join multiple networks but keep yourself limited to just a few so as not to get overwhelmed by updates.
  • Find out who is following you and showing interest.  Compare that demographic to your marketing plan and see how effective your strategy is.

  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Twitter is the prime example of where both strategies can exist, hand in hand. Many of the brands you follow are using both a push and pull strategy to engage their followers and also reach a small targeted group of people at the same time.
  • strong pull strategy here because they’re making use of the hashtags #sears and #tools, which is targeting those who may be following that hashtag as well as tweeting out a link to the tool itself with promotional copy
  • Facebook advertising is a push strategy.
  • Facebook apps are a pull strategy.  You’re generating interest in users when you put out a Facebook app. You’re putting something out there, and users will interact and provide data to you because they’re interested and want to.
  • social media is kind of a blurred line when it comes to whether a push or pull strategy is most effective and even more so when it comes to what tactics are TRULY push and TRULY pull. Social media is so interactive and has so many facets to it, that I think traditional push and pull strategies will be redefined to match our generation and the channels that we’re able to market on.
