Having been immersed lately in reading about disruptive technologies, i am in a quandary. Which - if any - technology in higher education is truly disruptive? How would we know? is there a way to make any technology disruptive? And finally, how might disruptive technology affect higher education's future?

FREE webinars include collaboration technologies, Merlot introduction, and ePortfolios in the Cloud. Resources include Sloan Semester Archives that tell the story of how "Using online learning, colleges and universities from across the country responded in record numbers to help students and institutions impacted by the storms. Dubbed "Sloan Semester" the initiative provided free online courses to students impacted by Katrina and Rita storms." Here you can identify more benchmarks in a useful case-study of how institutions committed to online learning were transformed to leverage learning resources in a time of need. i know that illinois schools looked at Elluminate when H1N1 was an active global pandemic.

A short article listing 4 benefits of using smartphones in the classroom. While i'm still not totally convinced, some good points are made here. The issue i don't ever seem to see addressed in articles like this, though, is how to keep students from going to facebook or their texts after using the phone for a learning purpose.

How can I lIcense my work? There Is no regIstratIon to use the CreatIve Commons lIcenses. LIcensIng a work Is as sImple as selectIng whIch of the sIx lIcenses best meets your goals, and then markIng your work In some way so that others know that you have chosen to release the work under the terms of that lIcense.

This thorough discussion on the types of plagiarism errors, with examples, is the most updated article i have found in terms of incorporating current issues created by the massive amount of information available online. it's a fantastic resource for both students and instructors.

This is an excellent resource to identify what type of plagiarism mistakes are common among student. One important aspect of this article is related to misuse of online resources, in this age of technology students often use online resources, and also make mistakes in using them properly, which results in plagiarism. Thanks!

Here is a useful scheduling tool, i would imagine its best use to be to organize meeting times between teachers and students. Everyone can access the same schedule without the need to synchronize or coordinate multiple calendars.

I thought It would be InterestIng (and maybe IronIc) to post an artIcle about dIIgo on dIIgo.

What is Diigo? Diigo stands for "Digest of internet information, Groups and Other stuff." it is a social bookmarking program that allows you to save your 'favourites' online, so that they can be accessible from any computer with an internet connection. However, Diigo does much more than this.
