What Does Technoratis State of the Blogosphere Report Mean for Education Bloggers? - Th... - 1 views

  • Almost half of all content consumers surveyed by Technorati trust traditional media sources less than they did five years ago
  • Equally interesting is the fact that almost 50% of content consumers surveyed by Technorati trust the content that they’re finding on blogs—a number that rivals the 60% of content consumers who trust the content they find in print newspapers, television broadcasts and radio programming.
  • 60% of all bloggers surveyed spend between 1 and 3 hours per week working on their blogs—and the average blogger posts new content to their site 2-3 times per week.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • mobile blogging is becoming more and more popular. 
  • If those kinds of trends continue—or start to find their way into the edusphere—that can only mean two things: Blog content will continue to play an important role in driving conversations in all fields. My own content could be drowned out, lost in the sea of posts being published by writers who are investing more time than I am in their blogs.
  • The lines are blurring between the blogosphere and social media spaces like Facebook and Twitter:
  • Bloggers spend more time interacting in social media spaces than the average American.

    Technorati is an Internet search engine for searching blogs. The article blends well with Clay Shirky's analysis of the death of print. This is why.

Teachers and Administrators, Don't Be Scared of Technology: It Won't Replace the Classr... - 1 views

  • hese skills are not taught by rote learning alone, but rather are learned through discovery, inquiry, and exploration. Many of these skills cannot be successfully taught through an application or website, but must be experienced in class and facilitated by a teacher.
  • Just because an educational tool isn’t perfect does not mean it should be disregarded. Just because an online classroom does not replace the role of a teacher doesn’t mean that this learning tool has no educational merit. Though there are thousands of technological tools that help enhance instruction, it doesn’t mean that teachers will be rendered obsolete.

Resistance is Futile - 2 views

  • You can click on the document to the right to read a more detailed examination of each of these qualities of the ‘Native’ information
  •  
    Here David Warlick reflects on his presentation at a Virtual Conference. One of the most interesting parts of the blog post is the detailed examination of the digital "Native," a document into which you may click. See highlight. 
  •  
    Warlick's blog hooked me. Got me fired up cause of the misspellings and understatements. So I read the document on "Native" information. Yeah, I get it, like figuring the Rubik's Cube without directions. Make up your own directions or map already. So, kudos to Warlick. However, "Responsive" seems limiting. How about a venn diagram with an additional word: vigilant? And learning includes more than experience. Otherwise foresight counts for nothing. Enjoy.
