When I say … microlearning - PMC - 5 views

  • One of the barriers to the application of microlearning has been the lack of a consistent clear operational definition to guide instructors
  • Microlearning is short.
  • Microlearning focuses on a single learning objective.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Microlearning resources are most commonly and effectively delivered via digital technology (but microlearning is not defined by technology).
  • Microlearning can be achieved on the go when the learner wants it or needs it.
  • The Internet‐connected smartphone is a major driver of microlearning because it provides access to learning on the go (i.e. mobile learning) and is nearly always accessible to most people.
  • Microlearning on Web 2.0 applications also offers the benefit of a collaborative learning space.
  •  
    This is an interesting concept, I had not heard of microlearning before today. It sounds like there is some merit to it, based on this article, but I do wonder how easy it could be to use ineffectively in terms of corporate trainings. I worry it could be easy to see low cost numbers and embrace the concept without ensuring learning gains are still taking place.

Using Diigo in the Classroom - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    Thanks for sharing this video! It was a helpful walk-through of how to use Diigo.
  •  
    This is great! Thank you ~
  •  
    This video laid out a great explanation of how using this platform can be helpful. I am already envisioning the possibility of using it in my Media Center. Theoretically, I would like to see all of our students through their Social Studies classes. I think it would be very cool to use this site during initial media center presentations to allow students to compile resources they can easily return to. I think it will be especially helpful during science and history fair. Students will have a simple way to compile and return to their resources when putting together their projects and annotated bibs.

Can you copyright the content you make with generative AI? | Descript - 6 views

  • because you can’t predict exactly what a generative AI tool will create, you can’t copyright it.
  • The Copyright Office equated the text prompts to telling an artist about an idea you have for a painting, then trying to copyright the work after they paint it.
  • That makes sense if all you provided the artist was ideas, because ideas are not protectable and the painter did the creative work that gives them “authorship,”
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • Lisa says she would’ve expected the Copyright Office to focus more on the nature of the inputs
  • how much human involvement does a creator have to exert over a machine to claim ownership of its output? 
  • This isn’t the first time the legal system has wrestled with that question. It first came up when cameras were invented; the argument then was that you couldn’t protect a photograph as your own, since the machine was the one capturing the image.
  • The Copyright Office, surprisingly, introduced this predictability standard instead.
  • He used the amusing analogy of Jackson Pollock, who made his art by flinging paint around and seeing what happened; nobody questioned his ability to copyright those works.
  • But in a more salient point for creators, the lawyer argued that the Copyright Office was “incorrectly focusing on the output of the tool rather than the input from the human.”
  • the best thing you can do is to be sure you’re employing as much human creativity in the process as possible.
  • This might mean writing prompts with as much detail as possible
  • A final note: as Lisa points out, the Copyright Office did indicate that if someone sufficiently modifies generated output, that could be protectable. So, If you’re using generative AI as a starting point — e.g., using ChatGPT to create a rough draft and then re-writing it for your own voice — be sure you document the changes you made before you try to file for copyright protection, and then explain it in the application.
  •  
    This is good information! AI has really opened up a lot of opportunities and resources, but it has also presented a lot of questions!
  •  
    This is good information regarding the use of generative AI. I concur with the author that AI-created information should be used as a starting point for developing instructional materials. It should not remove the instructional designer from the process. After all, they would be most knowledgeable about the instructional needs of their learners and the delivery methods available to them.

    Thanks for sharing this resource. It's super helpful for a project I'm working on right now.

Motivation and sustained participation in the online crowdsourcing community: the moder... - 2 views

  • Specifically, reputation-based reward satisfies crowdworkers' need for status improvement (Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); recognition-based reward meets their need for positive recognition and attention (Leimeister et al., 2009) and feedback-based reward enables them to acquire concrete information about the quality and value of their submission (Feng et al., 2018).
  • Specifically, hedonic reward highlights the importance of providing enjoyable participation experiences (Rockmann and Ballinger, 2017; Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); and eudaimonic reward emphasizes the necessity to promote crowdworkers' tendency to employ crowdsourcing community for psychologically worthwhile experiences (Mekler and Hornbæk, 2016).
  • There are four types of contextual extrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: monetary reward, reputation-based reward, recognition-based reward and feedback-based reward.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • There are two types of contextual intrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: hedonic reward and eudaimonic reward. Hedonic reward refers to the pleasures and enjoyment of engaging in the online crowdsourcing community (Deng and Joshi, 2016).
  • Eudaimonic reward refers to the crowdworkers' need for achieving self-determination value and fulfilling their life pursuit in the online crowdsourcing community (Ryan et al., 2008).
  •  
    In their study, Wei and Xiang (2021) examine how motivation sustains participation in an online sourcing community. After reading Zhao and Zhu's (2014) work, I explored this topic further as they recommended it for future research. Overall, their work revealed that both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation were critical. External motivators included improved reputation, recognition, and feedback, whereas internal motivators related to emotional feelings of happiness and pleasure.

  • They highlighted that a single tool cannot satisfy all employee needs, and how differences emerged between groups;
  • Muller et al (2012) noted how social media were appropriated differently across groups when creating and using shared resources and forming relationships. The variation of usage could result in isolation of both resources and groups and create barriers for information sharing as well as reduce networking (Yuan et al., 2013).
  • leading to potentially conflicting modes of communication.
  • As researchers continue to study social media, contradictory findings show that their self‐organising and open‐ended nature makes it difficult to predict the actual adoption and use within the workplace, and how they contribute to maintaining coherence in work activities.

The Seven Deadly Sins Of Digital Badging In Education - 7 views

  • An academic institution’s digital badging initiative is getting off the ground and students are “earning” badges, or micro-credentials, but are they actually providing value to the student toward his or her future career?
  • There is a fundamental disconnect with what is being taught in the classroom and what one really needs to know to be a contributing member of the modern workforce--especially in the tech industry.

I am starting to think that I am blind to the "tag feature" of the tools I use because, you're gonna laugh, this one ALSO has a tag feature, and I don't use it. Does anyone have tried Toby?

Thing 8: Digital Curation Tools - Cool Tools for School - 6 views

  •  
    I like the section on "curating vs dumping". In a previous course, we used Zotero to store our sources for annotated bibliographies and for classmates to have access to. I did not fully utilize this resources by tagging, sorting, etc. In this case, I just used this site to 'dump' all of my sources and then didn't do anything else with them.
  •  
    This is a useful resource! It makes me realize that I subconsciously used a curation tool in one of my courses (one I am a very minor instructor actually). During the session, I was presenting some tips to help healthcare professionals to see how useful mastering English could be for their job (I'm the French classmate, remember. ;-) ). I decided to combine all the resources I provided about the TOEFL test, Visas, universities, and so on, in a shared Padlet everybody could implement. Though I thought the comment feature could be helpful, I relied on colors to categorize the various topics. I think including tags would be super helpful to provide multiple ways to classify resources.

The Apple Vision Pro - the future? - 0 views

    A screen that you "see through" instead of "look at". When we think about Web 2.0 promoting connectivity, groups, and collaboration, these are all confined to the screen and to the internet. This device wants to turn that upside down. It all seems pretty wild and crazy now, but I believe this is the future. Could Web 3.0 be about breaking the web out of devices and into our reality?
