Google Reader Can Now Track Changes to Any Website - Even if it Can't Find a Feed - 0 views

  • Google just announced an interesting update to Google Reader. Google's online feed reader now allows you to track changes on any page - even those that don't feature an RSS feed. Google will create its own custom feeds for these sites and update the feed whenever it notices a change. Google Reader will display a short snippet of the page changes in the RSS feed. Until today, Google Reader would simply respond with an error message if you tried to subscribe to a site that didn't offer an RSS feed. Now, Google will simply create a new feed for the site and track updates. It's not clear how often Google plans to ping these sites, however. Thanks to this, you can easily track the latest discounts on Macys.com or updates to Zillow.com's homepage. As far as we were able to see, Google Reader creates very clean RSS feeds for these items. While Google doesn't make it obvious, you can find the newly created feed by clicking "show details" in Google Reader. Thanks to this, you can subscribe to this new feed in any feed reader and not just in Google Reader.

Blooms taxonomy math edu618 educational objectives

shared by Aidan Clemente on 26 Jan 10 - Cached
  • 1. Knowledge (Remembering previously learned material)
  • Mathematics: State the formula for the area of a circle.
  • 2. Comprehension (Grasping the meaning of material)
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • Mathematics: Given the mathematical formula for the area of a circle, paraphrase it using your own words.
  • &nbsp;3. Application (Using information in concrete situations)
  • Mathematics: Compute the area of actual circles.
  • Mathematics: When you have finished solving a problem (or when a peer has done so) determine the degree to which that problem was solved as efficiently as possible.
  • 4. Analysis (Breaking down material into parts)
  • 5. Synthesis (Putting parts together into a whole)
  • Mathematics: Apply and integrate several different strategies to solve a mathematical problem.
  • 6. Evaluation (Judging the value of a product for a given purpose, using definite criteria)
  • Mathematics: Given a math word problem, determine the strategies that would be necessary to solve it.
  • &nbsp;Bloom's use of the term application differs from our normal conversational use of the term. When working at any of the four highest levels of the taxonomy, we "apply" what we have learned. At the application level, we "just apply." At the higher levels, we "apply and do something else."
  • The main value of the Taxonomy is twofold: (1) it can stimulate teachers to help students acquire skills at all of these various levels, laying the proper foundation for higher levels by first assuring mastery of lower-level objectives; and (2) it provides a basis for developing measurement strategies to assess student performance at all these levels of learning.
