Bastard Culture!: How User Participation Transforms Cultural Production - Mirko Tobias ... - 5 views

    Bastard Culture!: How User Participation Transforms Cultural Production Mirko Tobias Schafer 0 Resenhas Amsterdam University Press, 15/07/2011 - 249 páginas In the wake of the recent far-reaching changes in the use and accessibility of technology in our society, the average person is far more engaged with digital culture than ever before. They are not merely subject to technological advances but actively use, create, and mold them in everyday routines-connecting with loved ones and strangers through the Internet and smart phones, navigating digital worlds for work and recreation, extracting information from vast networks, and even creating and customizing interfaces to best suit their needs. In this timely work, Mirko Tobias Schäfer delves deep into the realities of user participation, the forms it takes, and the popular discourse around new media. Drawing on extensive research into hacking culture, fan communities, and Web 2.0 applications, Schäfer offers a critical approach to the hype around user participation and exposes the blurred boundaries between industry-driven culture and the domain of the user.

Martin Dougiamas Keynote at Moodlemoot Canada | Some Random Thoughts - 0 views

  • Martin Dougiamas presented the keynote at the Canadian Moodlemoot in Edmonton.
  • Martin updated us with the current stats on Moodle 54,000 verified sites worldwide. 41 Million users 97 language packs (17 fully complete, the rest are in various states) 54 Moodle Partners who fund the project and its going very well ensuring the project will continue into the future. (such as Remote-Learner who I work for) USA still has the highest raw number of installations and Spain has half of that with much less population. Brazil is now 3rd in the world and has overtaken the UK now in total installs. 3 of the top 10 are English speaking per head of population, Portugal has the largest number of Moodle installations.
  • As many may have seen before, there are 10 steps of pedagogical usage of Moodle, which is outlined on Moodle Docs. It details the typical 10 step progression which looks like: Putting up the handouts (Resources, SCORM) Providing a passive Forum (unfacilitated) Using Quizzes and Assignments (less management) Using the Wiki, Glossary and Database tools (interactive content) Facilitate discussions in Forums, asking questions, guiding Combining activities into sequences, where results feed later activities Introduce external activities and games (internet resources) Using the Survey module to study and reflect on course activity Using peer-review modules like Workshop, giving students more control over grading and even structuring the course in some ways Conducting active research on oneself, sharing ideas in a community of peers
  • ...10 more annotations...
  •  ”a lot of people find that giving students the ability to teach is a valuable learning process” – Martin Dougiamas.
  • A lot of people want that secure private place in the LMS with big gates, with students needing to gain competencies and knowledge.  Many people really want this “Content Pump” focus, becuase it is what they need. Others use it as a community of practitioners, connected activities, content created by students and teachers alike and many methods of assessment. These are the two ends of the spectrum of usage.
  • Moodle has two roles: to be progressive and integrate with things coming up, and a drag and drop UI, with innovate workflows and improve media handling and mobile platforms to be conservative and improve  security and usability and assessment , accredition, detailed management tracking and reports and performance and stability
  • Since Moodle 1.9 came out three years ago,  March 2008 and most are still using the three year old code which has had fixes applied since then (1.9.11 is the current release.) The support for 1.9 will continue until the middle of 2012 as it is understood that it will be a big move to Moodle2.   “If you are going to Moodle2, you may as well go to Moodle 2.1 as it is better with 6 months more work” .
  • However, the ongoing support for each release will be 1 yr moving to the future. Moodle will be released every 6 months which enables the organisations to plan their upgrade times ahead of time.
  • What will be in Moodle 2.1? Performance Restore 1.9 backups Quiz/question refactor Page course format Interface polishing Official Mobile app (there now is a Mobile division)
  • HQ are working on an official app which uses Moodle 2 built-in web services. This provides a secure access to the data in Moodle 2 for people who have accounts in Moodle which greatly benefits mobile apps.
  • Moodle HQ has looked at what is Mobile really good at and identified them one by one and implemented them.  This includes messaging, list of participants in your course, marking attendence (in class roll call). This will be for the iPhone first and then someone will make it for Android so it will lag behind, but will be the same.
  • What is going to happen in 2.2 and beyond?
  • Grading and Rubrics Competency Tracking (from activity level, course level, outside courses to generate a competency profile) Assignment (planning to combine all 4 into one type and simplify it) Forum (big upgrade probably based on OU Forum) Survey (to include feedback/questionnaire – being rewritten currently) Lesson Scorm 2 Improved reporting IMS LTI IMS CC (although it is in 1.9 needs to be redone)
  •  
    An important overview for any one using Moodle, especially useful for those contemplating an upgrade to 2.0 .  (I'll make the move when we have 2.1 or 2.2.)

      depends on how people vote at tne next election I guess :)

      What about intervention in education MIAPs Unigue Learning Number and Identity Cards

  • Globalisation
    • Leon Cych
       
      Perhaps could do with a bit more explanation. Is this a specifc term in this context. I'd see it as something else in learning...
  • In some organizations
    • Leon Cych
       
      What about more distributed less country centric models of employment and I don't mean call centres i.e. web 2.0 new startups that employ people globally? Like Seesmic , for instance - any figures/ evidence on those?
  • context aware
    • Leon Cych
       
      Are we talking about the Semantic web or Web 3.0 here? I'm not sure this is specific enough...
  • dispersed
    • Leon Cych
       
      Dospersed or distributed?
  • ICT was most frequently used for learning in those enterprises with flatter hierarchies and more devolved decision talking responsibilities and in which employees had greater autonomy in the organisation of their own work. Interestingly, these enterprises also tended to have a more experienced workforce and low turnover of employees
    • Leon Cych
       
      Now that is very interesting
  • either face to face in the workplace or on-line
    • Leon Cych
       
      But perhaps down the pub :)
  • he study showed learning was more likely to take place in organisations with less hierarchical structures and where workers had more responsibility for their own work.
    • Leon Cych
       
      Again really interesting
  • is becoming part of a formal employment requirement
    • Leon Cych
       
      But interestingly at a recent consultation I went to involving the TDA and the new Masters in Teaching and Learning there was no evidence of awareness of the role of use of technology to aid reflectivity...
  • his entails building organisations in which people have what can be termed ‘developmental work tasks’
    • Leon Cych
       
      Collaboration not really mentioned - does it play a part?
  • change is challenging for some trainers
    • Leon Cych

  • a single learning provider,
    • Leon Cych
       
      formal or informal?
  • critical role to play
    • Leon Cych
       
      What about scalability and scope?
  • other approaches already in place
    • Leon Cych
       
      unless it continues to be locked out in schools
  • accidental
    • Leon Cych
       
      serendipitous - accident sounds like they fell over it which they possibly did :)
  • video conferencing
    • Leon Cych
       
      Maybe this might be renamed after Google's introduction of video into email? More ubiquitous than ever before for those who sign up to a gmail account and have some form of webcam built in.
  • unproblematic
    • Leon Cych
       
      What about the phenomenon of teachers working together informally to use these devices whilst teaching amongst each other globally - any reserch been done on that?
  • stimulating and rewarding
    • Leon Cych
       
      Providing there is a flat enough environment for this to happen...perhaps
  • learning to the state
    • Leon Cych
       
      But what about the trend where there is a cultural conflict by distance - and workers have to be schooled in cultural norms of the country they are servicing to get it right otherwise consumers in host countries reject this.
  • by an
  • system,
  • ambiguous and often hostile
    • Leon Cych
       
      Might be worth exploring this more - why - what are the causes of the hostility or is it merely dependency on outmoded systems rather than hostility - a reluctance to engage with cultural change due to being institutionalised - dunno...
  • oung people
  • Facebook
  • the privatization of education has seemed possible
    • Leon Cych
       
      ???
  • The idea of integrating personal learning and working environments
    • Leon Cych
       
      What research, if any, has ben done into the way individuals organise themselves in a more distributed environment - the individual "nodes" and how some "nodes" are more active than others ...
  • nteract with peer groups and communities of practice through the internet
    • Leon Cych
       
      OK answers some of my last question
  • learning spaces
    • Leon Cych
       
      and learner groupings perhaps?
  • costumer
  • reality of experience.
    • Leon Cych
       
      What about global peer to peer aspect?
  • It also implies a new culture of active and autonomous collective learning to be encouraged, valued and recognized in and outside the workplace
    • Leon Cych
       
      So what defines and binds these new communities?
  • Possible Futures
    • Leon Cych
       
      Would love to see this represented as an interactive diagram or walkthrough.
  • continue this list almost endlessly
    • Leon Cych
       
      How about a possibilites perm fruit machine :)
  • employees
    • Leon Cych
       
      Were any of these workplaces academic?
  • annotae
  • Annotate this paper.
    • Leon Cych
       
      Graham no mention in this of APIs - mashups and ther reconfiguring of information for personalisation? Just a thought. Leon

    I have annotated this quite heavily as very interesting.
