Are You Still Using Diigo? - 13 views

Wow -- just seeing that I created this account in 2006. Are you actively using Diigo and if so, what do you love about it?

Technology in Education - | Schoology - 49 views

  •  
    I created this group to give teachers some space to share and discuss the use of technology in the classroom. Feel free to post freely here. Those who know and love technology should spill their knowledge onto the pages and those who don't should absorb it like a sponge. You must be a member of Schoology to access this forum (go ahead, it's free). Once you have joined Schoology, access your home page, click on Groups, Click on Join and use access code X82RG-3T25Q to request access to the group.

Five Best Photoshop Alternatives - 19 views

  •  
    "Adobe Photoshop is the market leader when it comes to photo retouching, image editing, or even creating new images from scratch. However, for most people's uses, it may just be too many features to wade through, too much money to spend, or too complicated to use. Thankfully, there are plenty of powerful alternatives that also have tons of features. Here's a look at five of the best."

      crucial ideas - will be using MOOCs, flipped classrooms, BYOD very very soon. 2014 or earlier.

    Good day Steve In 2000 I created my on flipped an open enrollment evening college statistics class using a free online programed statistics textbook plus unique excel statistics software for homework. The top 20% (about 5 students) learned much more with less work and spent much less time in class/lab. The middle 60% had much less math anxiety, learned something but not enough to be useful. The bottom 20 finished with probably did something for their self-esteem.

Piktochart | Infographic App & Presentation Tool - 18 views

  •  
    Learn how to create stunning infographics - without spending hundreds of dollars on a graphic designer or losing your mind - in just 30 minutes or less. From word clouds to network data visualizations, infographics have become a primary format for content in a relatively short period of time. Although the "infographic" is nothing new, its proliferation and evolution has been nothing short of exponential in the past few years. Whether you love them or hate them, the rising popularity of infographics can't be denied.

Medical devices powered by the ear itself - MIT News Office - 1 views

  • Health Sciences and Technology (HST) demonstrate for the first time that this battery could power implantable electronic devices without impairing hearing.
  • The devices could monitor biological activity in the ears of people with hearing or balance impairments, or responses to therapies. Eventually, they might even deliver therapies themselves
  • “In the past, people have thought that the space where the high potential is located is inaccessible for implantable devices, because potentially it’s very dangerous if you encroach on it,” Stankovic says. “We have known for 60 years that this battery exists and that it’s really important for normal hearing, but nobody has attempted to use this battery to power useful electronics.”
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • The ear converts a mechanical force — the vibration of the eardrum — into an electrochemical signal that can be processed by the brain; the biological battery is the source of that signal’s current. Located in the part of the ear called the cochlea, the battery chamber is divided by a membrane, some of whose cells are specialized to pump ions. An imbalance of potassium and sodium ions on opposite sides of the membrane, together with the particular arrangement of the pumps, creates an electrical voltage.
  • Low-power chips, however, are precisely the area of expertise of Anantha Chandrakasan’s group at MTL
  • The frequency of the signal was thus itself an indication of the electrochemical properties of the inner ear.
  • in cochlear implants, diagnostics and implantable hearing aids. “The fact that you can generate the power for a low voltage from the cochlea itself raises the possibility of using that as a power source to drive a cochlear implant,” Megerian says. “Imagine if we were able to measure that voltage in various disease states. There would potentially be a diagnostic algorithm for aberrations in that electrical output.”
  • “I’m not ready to say that the present iteration of this technology is ready,” Megerian cautions. But he adds that, “If we could tap into the natural power source of the cochlea, it could potentially be a driver behind the amplification technology of the future.”
  •  
    "For the first time, researchers power an implantable electronic device using an electrical potential - a natural battery - deep in the inner ear."
  •  
    "All of D-Lab's classes assess the needs of people in less-privileged communities around the world, examining innovations in technology, education or communications that might address those needs. The classes then seek ways to spread word of these solutions - and in some cases, to spur the creation of organizations to help disseminate them. Specific projects have focused on improved wheelchairs and prosthetics; water and sanitation systems; and recycling waste to produce useful products, including charcoal fuel made from agricultural waste."

  • connect to both servers at the same time and just tell them to pass the files to each other, without having the files go through your computer.
  • you can create categories like "Work", "Patches", etc. to divide and conquer your list of accounts.
  • To view the server you are transferring to you can always open another FireFTP (in another tab) - this way you can look at both servers at the same time.
  • you have to configure an account for the server you are transferring to ahead of time
  • configure the "Initial Remote Directory" under the Connection tab of the account's settings
  • IPv6 is if you are connecting to a server on the IPv6 network protocol or you yourself are using IPv6
  • here you can work on your file, save it, and FireFTP will automatically upload your file when it detects you've modified the file

    FTP stands for File Tranfer Protocol. It is the sister of the more commonly used HTTP. Both protocols deal with transfering data across the internet. FTP is a way for you to take files from your computer and upload them to another computer, usually a web server. Or, it is also a way of downloading files from another computer to yours.
