    Today, we measure the size of the Web in exabytes and are uploading to it 15 times more data than we were 3 years ago. Technologies for sensing, storing, and sharing information are driving innovation in the tools available to help us understand our world in greater detail and accuracy than ever before. The implications of analyzing data on a massive scale transcend the tech industry, impacting the environmental sector, social justice issues, health and science research, and more. When coupled with astute technical insight, data is dynamic, accessible, and ultimately, creative. Marissa Mayer will speak to the power of data and the role it plays in Google's innovation. She will present on the technology trends that are changing our relationship with data, discuss fresh Google products that creatively put data to work, and offer her vision for the future of data in driving the Web forward.

    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.

      excellent idea
  • Curation is an important component in the process.
  • Curation is important – yes, it’s biased, yes it misses contributions, but it’s personal

  • I think we need to also focus on the human aspect of data, sensemaking, curation, and trust.

  • 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

      programa que soluciones esto?
  • 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
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • 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.
  • Stufflebeam
  • training as part of a system
  • a means of formative as well as summative evaluation.
