HowStuffWorks "How Web 3.0 Will Work" - 3 views

  • next generation of the Web -- Web 3.0 -- will make tasks like your search for movies and food faster and easier. Instead of multiple searches, you might type a complex sentence or two in your Web 3.0 browser, and the Web will do the rest. In our example, you could type "I want to see a funny movie and then eat at a good Mexican restaurant. What are my options?" The Web 3.0 browser will analyze your response, search the Internet for all possible answers, and then organize the results for you.­That's not all. Many of these experts believe that the Web 3.0 browser will act like a personal assistant.

      This could be a real time saver. Is this what Bing is all about?

    This article compliments Schrum's discuss io page 34 of our text. Does anyone feel like they are constantly playing catch up? I'm not sure I have mastered Web 2.0 tools and now Web 3.0 is popping up. I do, however, like the idea of complex searches made easier.

HUMAN 2.0: Digital_Nation Interview with USC Compartive Media Prof. Henry Jenkins - 9 views

  •  
    Ah, this video gives me goosebumps! It not only relates to what Schrum and Levin articulate but also resonates with the KnowledgeWorks Foundation's "2020 Forecast: Creating the Future of Learning". Oh, and the title, "Human 2.0" is marvelously clever. Check this video out!
  •  
    I agree, Mary. This is a really thought provoking video. Once again, as I have now read in many articles on the topic, the critical necessity of those using collaborative thought (the people who will survive in the future), is highlighted, along with the importance of flexible thinking, the ability to verify, analyze and synthesize new information, and the ability to work together with people who may possess different cultural ideas and global perspectives. This is reiterated on page 31 of Schrum's book where it states, "We also need to promote 21st century life and career skills in our schools that include flexibility, adaptability, initiative, self-direction, social and cross cultural skills and dispositions that our students are learning and using outside of school while they are plugged in and connected to the Internet. So, if schools are to become relevant for 21st century students and teachers, we have to make some serious changes... " How long do you think it will take American teachers to discover this, change and infuse their teaching with thoughtful and innovative integration of curriculum with technology?

    This idea- of understanding & building the capacity for collective intelligence within human networks- whether they be business enterprises, social organizations, nation-states, classrooms, or professional learning communities, is in my opinion, is one of the cornerstones where our Web2.0, our 21stC. Skills and our own Professional Development efforts should focus...

    This article is dealing with exactly what our problem. We have the tools, but we are not using them effectively in teaching literacy. There are links to other articles. I haven't read them, but the titles seem interesting. Another nice aspect is the list of internet resources at the end of the article. If anyone reads one of the linked articles, I would be intersted in know what you think of them.

Socialnomics09, the movie - SmartPlanet - 3 views

  • – If Facebook were a country, it would be the fourth largest. It just added another 100 million users in a mere nine months. It took radio 38 years to reach 50 million; TV 13 years; the Internet four years and the iPod three years.  The Republic of Facebook doesn’t quite cut it for me.

    This is actually an amazing video on YouTube, but hard to access from our computers. I want you to try to watch it if you can. The video is called Social Media Revolution (Socialnomics09), and it's amazing! Check out this link for a few of the statistic highlights.

    I've seen this on YouTube. I tried to put it on our Ideas2Intentionites but couldn't figure it out. The comments with the video ask where the data is taken from. It definitely makes you think!

Challenge - grownupdigital - 0 views

  • The Internet is a new medium for human communications, knowledge sharing and learning and a new generation of youth who have "grown up digital" learning best through collaboration and discovery. But our schools and universities teach students using approaches dating back centuries. Foremost is the lecture- the teacher focused, one way, one size fits all model where the student is isolated in the learning process.

Teacher Professional Development Sourcebook: The World's Largest English Department - 0 views

  • Steve Hargadon, the creator of the popular Classroom 2.0 Ning, believes that social networking portends dramatic changes for teachers. "There are huge ramifications for teacher professional development," he says. "It is hugely positive. Social networking creates an easy place to enter and use, and literally within five minutes you're up and running with a community."
  • The English Companion Ning, launched by acclaimed English teacher and author Jim Burke in December of 2008, is a prime example of social networking's potential to galvanize teachers.
  • Burke's Ning exceeded his expectations for a virtual meeting ground. In roughly six months, The English Companion Ning, which Burke refers to as "the world's largest English department, without the meetings," catapulted to close to 6,000 members of all ages and levels of teaching experience from five continents

  • Removed from the teacher's lounge or a faculty meeting and bolstered by the detachment the Internet affords, teachers are posting organizational techniques, lesson plans, book lists, videos, photographs, and even personal confessions about their classroom failings to a captive, ready-made audience

Did you Know 2.0 by Karl Fisch - 3 views

  •  
    I hope that is the correct URL but I can't access Youtube from school. This is a mind-boggling 5 minute video, created in 2006, by a teacher in Colorado. It shows how the 21st century learner will have to deal with a brand new world in which information, technology and knowledge is changing at an exponential rate and we as teachers will have to be educators to students for jobs that haven't even been considered yet. Karl Fisch mentions that today's learners will have 10-14 jobs before their 38th birthday. By 2010 the the rate of new information is predicted to double every 72 hours. Technology and the internet have completely changed the globe. This all relates to the ideas presented in Chapter 2 of Lynn Schrum's book and "how today 's students and tomorrow's teachers are different from previous generations (pG. 39-40), and how digital technology has become seamlessly entwined throughout their lives."
