An interesting-looking blog, which I came across courtesy of Julie Lindsay's blog at htp://123elearning.blogspot.com. It's about the use of computer games, but specifically in the contexty of English as a Foreign/Second Language. Looks potentially useful, and I will be xploring it for possible inclusion the Games issue of the Computers in Classrooms newsletter.

Interesting embeddable widget I discovered on Wesley Fryer's blog, http://www.speedofcreativity.org/. It shows how many blog posts etc there have been since you loaded the widget, in real time. I'm not actually sure how valuable or even valid such information is. There is no doubt, however, that using it in a presentation, as Fryer intended to do, would be a good way of grabbing people's attention right from the start. Perhaps it would work well in a classroom setting too, as a starting point for a discussion about what such statistics mean, in a 'real' sense.

At first glane, this wiki-based video repository seems quite comprehensive. Given that it can be edited by anyone, I'm slightly concerned that 'rogue' videos may find their place on to the site. Also, will stuff be moved about making it hard to find again? Still, there is a search facility. I will be exploring this and reporting on it in due course. Thanks to coolcatteacher.blogspot.com for blogging about it, which is how I heard about it.

This technique has become known as 'Augmented Reality', or AR, and it promises to be one of the great growth areas in technology over the next decade - but perhaps not the reasons the leaders of the field currently envision.  The strength of AR is not what it brings to the big things - the buildings and monuments - but what it brings to the smallest and most common objects in the material world.  At present, AR is flashy, but not at all useful.  It's about to make a transition.  It will no longer be spectacular, but we'll wonder how we lived without it.

I quite like the questions suggested in this post about being critically literate by Lisa Durff. I agree with her when she says that critical literacy should be extended to all media, not just books. Like her, I have always encouraged my students to question everything (which took a humorous -- and welcome -- turn when they started to question ME!).\n\nRead and bookmark and share this post.
