    This fun site, one vision of a social media-enabled dictionary, offers not just definitions of words (from a variety of sources), but also contextual references, and the ability to tag and/or build a community around a given word. It's quite hard to describe; I recommend clicking through a few words as they float by on the home page.

    By Anya Kamenetz in the Education column of GOOD magazine (Online), August 29 2011. The idea behind the Edupunk concept is a DIY approach to education in order to make education truly student-driven, and to make good use of the great variety of resources available on the Internet. To that end, Kamenetz, author of The Edupunk's Guide (a free ebook) offers these ideas regarding online research.
  • KPI_Library Bookmarks on 01 Sep 11
     
    Much as the Edupunk movement fails to value the importance of a good teacher to guide and support the student's learning experience, this post fails to take librarians and libraries into account. That said, there are some great sites and sources on this list, though no mention of how students should evaluate the accuracy, currency, or authority of these sites. What do you think?
