  • That’s my virtual, live, textbook - licensed under Creative Commons. And students don’t have to blow 60 bucks on it either. And they can subscribe to this textbook using their favourite feed reader.
  • As I explained to my class, the most important stuff to know about the web is what’s happening RIGHT NOW. I

educational-origami » Bloom's Digital Taxonomy - 0 views

  • Bloom's Revised TaxonomyIn the 1990's, a former student of Bloom, Lorin Anderson, revised Bloom's Taxonomy and published this- Bloom's Revised Taxonomy in 2001. Key to this is the use of verbs rather than nouns for each of the categories and a rearrangement of the sequence within the taxonomy. They are arranged below in increasing order, from lower order to higher order. Drawing 2. Bloom's Revised Taxonomy

    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.

Towards a Theory of Digital Literacy: Three Scenarios for the Next Steps - 0 views

    • IN PI
       
      The choice, in this case, is not just between two categories of skills or literacies; it is rather a choice between two cultures, (a) one favoring rationality, continuity, criticism, abstract thinking, individuality, authenticity, systematic planning, and thinking; and (b) the other favoring fragmentation, spontaneity, concrete visual processing of knowledge, connectedness, reproduction, and branching associative thinking.
    • IN PI
       
      * Should education strive to achieve the enhancement of post modern values, or rather the preservation (as much as possible) of modern values? * Should the aim, instead, be some combination of the two? * If so, what combination (Aviram, 2005; Dator, 1993; Postman, 1992, 1995)?
    • IN PI
       
      This is indeed the probable default scenario. If that is so, and if the radical hypothesis about the civilization clash is true, it is likely that photo-visual skill, branching skill and reproduction skill will be powerfully enhanced, while the ability for criticism, or indeed, rational thinking of any kind, may deteriorate. Some might take it to be a desired scenario, but if it is, it calls for a conscious decision, rather than being dragged towards it blindly.
