    "Zeen is a free site (in beta) that allows you to gather your favorite pictures and videos from the internet and add your own text to create an interactive digital magazine that you can share with other people. Zeen is easy to use and your end product is a very dynamic and interactive publication. This site is a fantastic tool for school projects, invitations, online memory books, business portfolios, and advertising just to name a few options."

  • what is needed is something more closely approximating fluency in another language: the language of digital environments.
  • ess useful to know one program very well and more useful to achieve a level of comfort navigating digital tools for oneself.
  • 1. Think of your computer less as the place where all your data lives and more as the thing that gives you access to your data.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • one program: Evernote
  • Off-site storage is more secure in the long run,
  • you need a backup routine
  • online access to your backed-up files means you have nearly universal access to your work.
  • 2. Let your computer (do some of the) work for you; metadata is your friend.
  • Tag everything.
  • hink of tags less as categories or folders and more as the code words in your own personal index.
  • Documents, images, pdfs, articles, notes can all have as many tags as you want. And items in separate folders can be tagged with the same word or phrase.
  • Use tags to describe an article in a way the author might not.
  • Clip articles to read later using Evernote;
  • install the Evernote clip tools {Chrome and Firefox extensions}
  • Use EndNote or Zotero to quickly grab citation information
  • 3. Learn to search, not just organize.
  • Evernote and Google Docs perform OCR by default
  • , which yields searchable text from what was just an image file. 
  • at some point, you forget what you have written or what notes you have taken
  • Evernote is essentially an easy-to-use personal database,
  • 4. Let these techniques and habits help you find patterns that you would not otherwise see.

  • esponsibility to not only educate the minds, but also the hearts of my students
  • I want my students to look at knowledge in a connected and ethical way
  • personal self-understanding on an intellectual and emotional level
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • higher level thinking skills
  • encourage students to attain greater self-understanding
  • The Multiliteracy Project is a national Canadian study exploring pedagogies or teaching practices that prepare children for the literacy challenges of our globalized, networked, culturally diverse world. Increasingly, we encounter knowledge in multiple forms - in print, in images, in video, in combinations of forms in digital contexts - and are asked to represent our knowledge in an equally complex manner.
  • ighlight two related aspects of the increasing complexity of texts
  • (a) the proliferation of multimodal ways of making meaning where the written word is increasingly part and parcel of visual, audio, and spatial patterns; (b) the increasing salience of cultural and linguistic diversity characterized by local diversity and global connectedness .
