"TWITTER -- February 17, 2011 at 9:30 AM EDT NPR's Andy Carvin on Tracking and Tweeting Revolutions By: Hari Sreenivasan We caught up with NPR's Senior Strategist Andy Carvin between his 400+ tweets a day for a chat about his Twitter stream. It has become a must-follow wire service of sorts for people interested in the latest developments in Tunisia, Egypt and a growing number of countries across the Middle East, Persian Gulf and North Africa. We discussed how he began mapping out whom to trust in the "Twittersphere," and how he works to verify and share facts with NPR as the stories develop. His tweets are populated with the words "source" and "verified?" More often than not, as he re-tweets trends and waves of information across the streams he tracks as his sources verify or discount facts on the ground. Carvin uses a combination of old media (wire services, broadcast networks) and follows a series of bloggers and Twitter accounts. He verifies with sources he trusts before saying a piece of information is "confirmed." Andy has spoken about his open news-gathering processes during a live-chat with Poynter, a Q&A with the Atlantic, the Knight Digital Media Center and it has been blogged about at the New York Times."

"Risposto da Alessia Nera su 26 Gennaio 2011 a 10:45 Confermo. L' Account Didasca è un benefit che DIDASCA - The First Italian Cyber Schools for Lifelong Learning attribuisce: ai propri Soci agli Operatori (Dirigenti, Insegnanti, Personale Ata) che prestano servizio nel Sistema Scolastico Nazionale e che si propongono di utilizzare il libro di testo digitale My DIDASpedia nello svolgimento della loro attività professionale. Gli Studenti possono diventare Soci di DIDASCA versando una tantum la quota associativa di 10 euro. Si tratta di un investimento quanto mai vantaggioso, perché esso consente loro di accedere alle Google Apps for Education di DIDASCA per tutto il resto della vita attiva."

Bisogna essere loggati su La Scuola che Funziona per vedere questa discussione. Su "My DIDAspedia" c'è un link a http://www.mydidaspedia.it/ ma non funziona più perché si basava sui Google Knol che Google ha chiuso nel 2012: vedi vedi https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knol

:D quando ho rifiutato di conferire al gioco l'accesso al mio account gmail, mi sono beccata un'icona con una busta forcuta ed incazzata - http://emailgame.baydin.com/site_media/img/forkie.png - col commento "The Email Game isn't very interesting if you don't let it access any of your messages! To try the email game, re-enter your address in the box below, then make sure you press the Allow button". Uè col corno che autorizzo sto coso ad accedere ai miei email!

si anche a me, dopo, è sembrato un gioco un po' invadente, intanto la fonte sembrava autorevole ... mi sa che il cliccamento compulsivo produce danni un po' ovunque...

"The (Free) Efficient Way to Manage Class Q&A How is this better than email, newsgroups, and discussion forums? Students actually use Piazza, they love it. This difference stems from how we built Piazza. We've personally met with and spoken to thousands of students and instructors. The result is a beautifully intuitive and simple product that students love and use."

Ultimo post sul blog un anno fa: http://blog.piazza.com/2012/07/23/7-management-secrets-of-the-postpartum-ceo/ . Può darsi che la fondatrice nonché CEO di Piazza abbia trovato il pupo bipede ancora più impegnativo di quanto pensasse... Scherzi a parte: sì, sembra interessante, in particolare per il supporto di LaTEX, ma colpisce il fatto che le università elencate sono tutte US. Chissà se accettano anche istituzioni straniere - e viceversa, nel caso dell'Italia, se le istituzioni educative dipendenti da MIUR sono autorizzate e crearvisi un account?

Registrarmi non mi andava (già mi arrivano tonnellate di mail!), ma di primo acchito, con la demo, mi pare si tratti di un forum simile a tanti altri: mi sbaglio?

Screencast-o-matic è il programma gratuito che sto usando per confezionare i videotutorial su Edmodo. Sono molto soddisfatta del risultato. Tenete però presente che il "Pro Account" menzionato nella seconda parte di questo questo videotutorial segnalato da Fabrizio è la versione a pagamento, che naturalmente offre qualche servizio in più rispetto a quella gratis.

"Videogames are one of the fastest trending topics in media, education, and technology. Research across fields as disparate as science, literacy, history, visual processing, curriculum, and computer science suggests that videogames aren't just fun - they can actually be good for your mind as well. In this course, we will discuss current research on the kinds of thinking and learning that goes into videogames and gaming culture. We'll investigate the intellectual side of digital gameplay, covering topics that range from perception and attention in Left 4 Dead 2 to the development of historical understanding in Civilization to collaborative learning in massively multiplayer online games like World of Warcraft. Throughout the course, we examine the inherent tensions between contemporary youth culture and traditional education and new developments in games for learning that promise to help bridge that growing divide."

"Overview - This course is offered by University of Zurich with Prof Paul-Olivier Dehaye and his students. This lesson plan is created by Dilrukshi Gamage (www.sdgamage.weebly.com) a MOOC student from this class due to few reasons. 1. Course started with giving some ideas, but now it appears no more ideas facilitated 2. Forums are closed and we have no clue of what to do 3. Students who take this course or any of coursera for the first time will be wondering and might lose the context of learning. 4. This lesson plan will guide us to collaboratively find solution to be in synchronized and learn from the time we invest in this. Introduction - The course named Teaching goes massive : new skills needed. It is our responsibility to find out what are the skills we need when we are teaching to a massive class.. or any class. Prof.Paul mentioned some experiments which we can do and previous forums already started and gone very well until suddenly closed everything. So let us drive this MOOC , learn to learn ourselves how to be organized and learn from each other. Anyone can suggest things but not like as forums it has to be much more effective. This document will contain how to participate and what can you do in contributing to expand your learning. Don't worry this will not stop suddenly as we the students are in charge. First step lets set some objectives so we can see did we achieve when we finish this course. Objectives - After you complete this course 1. You will learn how to learn yourselves to work without a real teacher or a lecturer. 2.

You will learn to work on inclusive projects in the same course ( by inclusive what I mean was anyone can work in one project or more) 4. You will gain knowledge on what skills you need and how to handle it when teaching is massive Where to contact - Please use the links provided in collaborating
