  • la falta de archivos y la integración de las conversaciones en otros espacios en el correo electrónico diario. Hay dos razones principales para ello: Queremos demostrar que si alguien quiere ofrecer un curso en línea abierta, que no es necesario para ejecutar su propio servidor o escribir su propio software. Nosotros no pedimos Stephen si podría funcionar este curso en su sitio
  • Lo que perder - y todavía estoy inquieto acerca de esta compensación - es el archivo integrada de la actividad en el curso. Puedo enviar un correo electrónico diario al grupo de Google. Yo enlaces agregados / deliciosa / diigo / enlaces Twitter y comentarios sobre mi página de Netvibes . El problema, sin embargo, es que Netvibes es más bien tonto. Simplemente deja el contenido de la página hasta que algo nuevo ha sido publicado. Si usted es el seguimiento de la actividad en Netvibes, es probable que gran parte del encuentro el mismo contenido hasta que se ha actualizado con nuevo contenido. La actividad no se archivan por fecha.
  • Para CCK11 (a partir del lunes), vamos a experimentar con la realización del curso sin un LMS y el uso de gRSShopper sólo para la interacción. En LAK11, una de las adiciones clave parece ser el papel de "Defensor curso" que Dave Cormier está cumpliendo.
  • Tony Searl está empezando a desempeñar un papel similar al agregar los blogs del curso y contenido en función de sus intereses.
  • Curación es un componente importante en el proceso.
  • Si bien la información está creciendo en la abundancia y las herramientas y algoritmos (minería de datos, visualización) se están desarrollando como soluciones, no podemos pasar por alto la importancia de la señalización y la construcción de sentido en los sistemas sociales

  • The linearity and causality implied within the taxonomy (for instance, the assumption that passing a test at Level 2 will result in improved job performance at Level 3) masks the reality of transferring training into measurable results. Many factors enable — or hinder — the transfer of training to on-the-job behavior change, including support from supervisors, rewards for improved performance, culture of the work unit, issues with procedures and paperwork, and political concerns
  • Robert Brinkerhoff takes a systems view of evaluation of training, believing it should focus on sustained performance rather than attempting to isolate the training effort:
  • learn best from the outliers

  • The method asks evaluators to: Identify individuals or teams that have been most successful in using some new capability or method provided through the training; Document the nature of the success; and Compare to instances of nonsuccess.

    With so many websites to join, users must decide where to invest significant time in adding their same connections over and over. For developers, this means it is difficult to build successful web applications that hinge upon a critical mass of users for content and interaction. With the Social Graph API, developers can now utilize public connections their users have already created in other web services. It makes information about public connections between people easily available and useful.

    Ah… the semantic web. The saviour of the internet, and the evil empire enforcing its evil standardization upon my freedom. I've always been a little suspicious of this particular topic. Not that I'm opposed to any kind of stardardization, railroads and the lack of standardizations with bank cards at grocery stores come to mind (grrr…) But the semantic web and how data is 'linked' is pretty important to analytics. time to dive in.

  • According to an embedded MS Word document found in one of the HBGary emails, it involves creating an army of sockpuppets, with sophisticated "persona management" software that allows a small team of only a few people to appear to be many, while keeping the personas from accidentally cross-contaminating each other. Then, to top it off, the team can actually automate some functions so one persona can appear to be an entire Brooks Brothers riot online.
  • Using the assigned social media accounts we can automate the posting of content that is relevant to the persona.
  •  There are a variety of social media tricks we can use to add a level of realness to all fictitious personas

  • Really? I thought. How do we know if those are real people? Twitter has to be the easiest thing to fake and to automate with retweets and 180 characrer max sentences. To the extent that the propaganda technique known as "Bandwagon" is an effective form of persuasion, which it definitely is, the ability for a few people to infiltrate a blog or social media site and appear to be many people, all taking one position in a debate, all agreeing, for example, that so and so is not credible, or a crook, is an incredibly powerful weapon.
  • I believe there are many people though who will base their judgment on rumors and mob attacks. And for those people, a fake mob can be really effective.

    Also, "liking" itself is a very limited way of expressing your thoughts on something. You might like pizza, but no anchovis. If you dislike a Pizza Anchovis, what does the system store? On the other hand, some interesting analogies and recommendations can be done with relatively simple like/dislike statements and multiple choice answers.\n\nHunch should incorporate serendipity.

It looks at what the chosen strategies have accomplished, in what ways institutions use the data they collect, whether institutions are investing more resources in tools that enable them to collect and manipulate management information, and the degree to which information and analysis are being used to support institutional decision making."
