Thanks for sharing, Carla!

A fine find on the Austratian Flexible Learning Framework site

"Wiki Etiquette for Students - How to act on a wiki" (2008.07.15) provides advice and suggests additional resources regarding personal safety, truthfulness, permission to post, acknowledgements, accuracy, and other issues related to online activities and collective editing.

This page displays a password to enable editing by educators, "but you need to enter the wiki invite key to associate this wiki with your account." I havn't figured out where to get one of those keys yet.

Live illustrations, step-by-step instructions, and video demonstration - Final products perhaps aren't as glamorous as Pageflakes or the like, but you certainly can make-do without another account/sign-in if you already do Google.

Thanks to Claudia (fceblog) for adding this tutorial to her Del.icio.us collection

Any LwC members at NECC this year?

The value of a fluid approach is likely to manifest itself not only in design environments, isn't it? If not in education, I wonder in which other fields development, emergence, and fostering of ideas is more welcome than adherence to preconceptions and status quo.

"A video instructional series on English composition for college and high school classrooms and adult learners; 26 half-hour video programs and coordinated books" (2008.07.10)

Thanks to Ronaldo for bookmarking this already. I found it in his recent bookmarks after he'd joined the LwC group.

BIG on strategic self-development: "Career Development, Technology and Learning Strategies for Lifelong Personal and Professional Growth (TypePad blog subtitle, 2008.07.10)

Thanks to Mary for sharing this wonderful blog with the LwC group. I'm bookmarking it now, sharing it with friends, and going to add it to a blogroll as soon as I'm done here!

This self- and peer-evaluation rubric focuses on collaborative, or perhaps cooperative activities and performances. There is a printable version (PDF), but both that and the web version are protected under copyright - all rights reserved, rather than under Creative Commons licenses.

You would have to obtain permission from the copyright holder before using these rubrics, or before adapting them in any way, wouldn't you?

A site-based questionnaire generates printable and revisitable multiple intelligence profiles based on Gardner's eight intellingences. Site also allows compilation of group or class results, if you get reference code numbers keyed to individual responses.

This is a deep bookmark for a survey represented in a site that Mary bookmarked earlier (2008.07.07 JST): kis21learning wiki / A "Digital Arts" Menu for Multiple Intelligences

The survey itself is from the Birmingham Grid for Learning, "arguably the most comprehensive learning resource of its kind to be found anywhere in the UK" (BGfL: About Us, retrieved 2008.07.08 from http://www.bgfl.org/index.cfm?s=1&p=1945,index).

Anamaria Menezes' Webslide presentation of various sources of listening material for learners of English as an additional language

On first glance, it seems like WebSlide shows would be ideal for introducing cohorts of students new to blogging for educational purposes to the works of their near peers and recent predecessors.

For professional development purposes, hmm..., profiting from use of WebSlides requires deeper reflection than a late afternoon chocolate fix and fiddle driven Celtic rock songs in French blaring from the computer speakers seem to facilitate.

There are already too many browser tabs left open waiting for another new list to show up in Diigo to feel certain that I'll get through bookmarking them before quitting time half an hour ago.

It looks like rain, and I don't want to stretch this screenburn- and keyboarding session to the point that i miss the sole bus headed my way home this evening.

Karen Swan (Kent State University) introduces a special issue of JALN about collaboration thus: "... [M]any online educators remain unsure of why, when, and how to introduce collaboration in their online classes. This special issue is designed to provide help with collaborative activities."

I can hardly wait to read these articles!

Edit WebSlides, or add an audio track

This looks like it may work for making oral presentations of WebSlide collections, if you upload a voice recording for Background Music. You'd have to carefully time your recording (or post-production audio track) to match the Play Settings. Time adjustments shouldn't be too difficult in a program such as Audacity.

Alan Selig's audio and textual responses to Learning Times Green Room episode 46

The Tutor/Mentor Connection Links Library list for Mentoring and Tutoring offers review functionality.

The list I set up is accessible via Diigo web pages, but still doesn't appear as an option in bookmarking pop-up windows (Firefox), so I have been unable to add new bookmarks to that list. Is anyone having similar problems with lists, in Firefox or any other browsers?

a Learning Times Network inquiry: Looking for eMentoring resources; Posted: Jun 2, 2008 10:30 PM

I bookmarked this Learning Times discussion as an initial find for a list that I'd just created in another browser Firefox browser window. However, the Add to a List interface didn't appear when I returned to the orignal window, and actually did the bookmarking. I'm wondering whether the bookmarking pop-up window will look any different when I go to the rest of tabs open to related sites, and ready for adding to the missing list.

Thanks to Joao for pointing out Readings page for this course (LwC Group @ Diigo.com, 2008-06-28 06:03:47).
