    Good utility since many people will likely be sharing documents via Google Docs while working on projects for coursework.

    OffiSync (currently in beta) allows users to access and modify Google Docs from their MS Office applications (like Word, Excel, PowerPoint). The tool requires Windows XP, Vista, or 7 and MS Office 2003 or 2007. Some errors are to be expected in the beta stage, but the benefit of conveniently editing Google Docs is worth the minor annoyances.

    Hey Chris. Given all the other options we have for creating and sharing documents and information, how do you see this being most useful to you?

    The 1-step migration of research content to the host document is very nice, but outside of that, I think I would be inclined to stick with google docs if for no other reason than users (and any collaborators) do not need to download an application to their computer.

television social technology wiki content management

shared by Garron Hillaire on 08 Nov 10 - No Cached
  • Google pulled all their ads on October 26th, due to TOS violations on the part of the wiki and forums — specifically "adult and mature content" on pages that carried Google Adsense ads. These ads provided far and away the majority of the site's operating budget.
  • Turn off anonymous editing in the wiki. This is so that we can tell Google, "See, we do have standards, and we can identify and take action against people who violate them." This has already been implemented.
  • Segregate "adult and mature content" behind some sort of barrier that you will have to explicitly agree to go through. This has been implemented

  • Nofollow tags will be attached to outbound links on wiki pages. This is an invisible-to-users tag that tells the Ad Server "The following link goes somewhere that isn't us. Don't hold us responsible for their content."

    TV Tropes is being very transparent about creating a moderation system for the content. This is in response to loosing advertising dollars from Google. It is interesting to see the outline for their model of moderating content. Some of these elements could be used in a web 2.0 environment for education

    This relates to today's class discussion about search: a model based not on popularity or paid placement, but on Wikipedia-style editing by users.

Khan Disrupting

shared by Margaret O'Connell on 23 Oct 10 - No Cached
  • Lastly, toward the end of the video Khan talks about his surprise that it's not just him and other math geeks who want to learn and understand these concepts -- and get pleasure from it. He reads a letter about someone who solves a derivative and smiles. This resonates and matches our new chapter in the new edition of Disrupting Class -- that a fundamental job people have to do is to feel successful and achieve.

    Check out the video at http://vimeo.com/11731351 (It's the same info Cameron posted a while ago but this time it's made the widely read Huffington Post ... and I think it's a good repeat post since I, for one, didn't pay enough attention to this the first time I heard about it.)
