Wisconsin Lawmakers Grant Reprieve to University Broadband Efforts - Wired Campus - The Chronicle of Higher Education - 0 views

  •  
    June 17, 2011, 5:11 pm By Marc Parry "Colleges and libraries have been up in arms all week over a proposed budget that would have forced the University of Wisconsin to return $39-million in broadband grants and withdraw from a nonprofit high-speed networking cooperative. Well, state lawmakers have changed course-for now, anyway."

My Online Summer: Grading - ProfHacker - The Chronicle of Higher Education - 0 views

  •  
    June 17, 2011, 11:00 am By Jason B. Jones "[My Online Summer is a weekly series chronicling my first effort at teaching a class entirely online in our campus's LMS. Read previous installments here.] Most of the early adjustments to teaching online ranged from disconcerting to irritating to anxious. But this week, I wanted to mention one thing that has been infinitely better in an all-online course: grading. It has been much easier for me to grade the work of online students than those from a conventional class."

Changing Demographics of Tablet and eReader Owners in the US | Nielsen Wire - 0 views

  •  
    "August 25, 2011 In the U.S., as recently as last Summer, tablet and eReader owners tended to be male and on the younger side. But according to Nielsen's latest, quarterly survey of mobile connected device owners, this is no longer the case. Back in Q3 2010, for example, 62 percent of tablet owners were under the age of 34 and only 10 percent were over the age of 55. By Q2 2011, only 46 percent of tablet owners were under the age of 34 and the percentage of those over 55 had increased to 19 percent. Looking at the data by gender underlines key changes in the eReader category. Sixty-one percent of all eReader owners are now female, compared to a mere 46 percent in Q3 2010. (Smartphone owners are now evenly split between male and female and tablets remain primarily male.)"

Now You See It // The Blog of Author Cathy N. Davidson » Stagnant Future, Standard Tests: Pointed Response to NY Times "Grading the Digital School"" - 1 views

  •  
    Sept. 6, 2011 "Matt Richtel's panoramic essay, "In Classroom of the Future, Stagnant Scores." weighs in this morning on the topic of "Grading the Digital School." I found myself cheering and jeering alternately throughout this piece. Why? Because it so quickly confuses "standards" with "standardized test scores" and technology put into classrooms with "preparing kids for a digital future (actually, the digital present: it's here, it's now, like it or not). These confusions are so pervasive in our culture and so urgent that I want to take a moment to focus on them. "

Social media nella PA: non servono i divieti, ma policy scritte (e comunicate) bene - 0 views

  •  
    Ernesto Belisario 23 luglio 2011 "Proprio con riferimento all'ambito pubblico, ho notato che aumenta sempre più la distanza culturale tra l'Italia, dove molti Enti - addirittura - bloccano ai propri dipendenti l'accesso a questi siti, e gli altri Paesi in cui si moltiplicano le esperienze di Amministrazioni che scelgono i social media per dialogare con i propri cittadini-utenti. In questi casi, gli Enti dedicano grande attenzione all'adozione di documenti (le cosiddette "Policy") in cui spiegare le ragioni per cui l'Amministrazione si serve degli strumenti social e in che modo un dipendente pubblico deve usarli."
