-
"ames are infiltrating every aspect of daily life - and everyone's now a gamer, in one form or another. Early-on "gamification" involved adding simple game mechanics like points, badges and leaderboards to websites and apps. But that's not what makes games truly compelling. Good games take players on a journey, giving them something to learn, master and share. Gamification 2.0 is about creating game-like digital services that shape real-world behavior and deliver deep value to players, -- using a blend of intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. In this talk, we'll do a teardown of the biggest and most influential social gaming services, and distill those lessons into these Seven Core Concepts for Smart Gamification. "

"Will you ever just walk into class and ask, "Okay, what do you want to study today?" Of course not. Inquiry-based learning is founded on students taking the lead in their own learning, but it still requires considerable planning on your part. Projects must fit into your larger program structure, goals and plans, but the students will be actively involved in planning the projects with you and asking the questions that launch their individual inquiries." In thinking about PBL and other inquiry-based learning, this post and the graphic of the inquiry process are easy to connect with.

A Synthesis of Scholarship in Multicultural Education - 0 views
-
When planning for multicultural education in school programs, it is important to allow different conceptions of multicultural education to be expressed in the school decisionmaking process rather than to insist on one definition. Conceptions of multicultural education contain value beliefs and reflect the varying levels of understanding among people involved in the school decisionmaking process.

The right to own one’s personal data and intellectual property Students also have the right to create and own intellectual property and data associated with their participation in online courses.

A lot of my data - chats and forum postings have passed beyond my reach after an online course closed. What are some things I can start doing while Institutions are still not willing to change access policies? How much of another's forum posting is legitimate for me to copy to my own space so I have the context?

One school in Maryland has decided it owns ALL student work; faculty work, as well. In what ways can we make sure this concept does not spread? What is the difference of ownership when state or federal funds are involved? when private funding is primary? Does public funding create the potential for open resources and sharing of personal date in the eyes of the institution; in the yes of others? in the eyes of the creator of the materials? How can we take ownership of our data. In days gone by, another "hard copy" placed in a personal "folder" was the answer. Today, our computer "folders" are no longer personal and may be accessed by companies, government agencies and hackers. Do we really have the rights to our own digital identity and intellectual property in the digital age? If so, what are some of the ways we can protect these elements? Long post with no concrete answers ... thanks for jump starting the thought processes!
