How To Create A Participatory Culture - 0 views

  •  
    We are now in a world with new media, such as Facebook, Twitter and so on. These tool spread knowledge and information. They help people to work more efficiently. However, on the other side. There are also some false information on the internet. Some people may deliberately post some information to hurt others. It will hurt people. So, we must teach people how to protect themselves from all those dangers. This is media literary. The article emphasizes on how to create such a literacy. Only with this literary, people can control the social media. As a result, they can create a participatory culture.

    Open culture in a different sense. Help in Pakistan offered to anyone, independent of culture, religion, gender or age. Crown funded. Even the poorest of the poor give. However, they tend not to accept donations from foreign agencies...

Please Feel the Museum: The Emergence of 3D Printing and Scanning - 0 views

  •  
    I found this article trying to learn more about 3D printing and museums after seeing a recent headline on the topic. This article reminded me a lot of what was discussed in the module on participatory culture. Visiting a museum is a fairly "closed" experience in most museums the visitors are separated from the objects on display (for obvious reasons), it is interesting to see museums "open" in this very limited context, giving people ways to interact with certain museum objects in more ways than just the standard way one would in a visit to a museum.

    Cool short video describing skills we need to be part of the participatory culture.
  •  
    This video did a great job of illustrating the shift from critical media consumption to more participatory culture. We are no longer just consumers, we are now producers, curators and publishers. We must develop critical digital literacy skills in order to creatively express ourselves online.

    Un ejemplo de como podemos hacer uso de una red social para un fin útil y productivo para los demás. Buen artículo. ---- An example of how we can make use of a social network to a useful and productive for the other end. Good article.
  •  
    Good article, I will definitely apply these tips in my workplace.
  •  
    This is an area I'd like to tune up for myself and learning communities that I work with. Twitter's potential seems huge and not yet well utilized (in my networks) for closing the gap between sharing information and building relational solutions that move insight into action.
  •  
    The reason I really like using Twitter for education is that it fits so well with constructivism. Like other social media, Twitter blurs the line between content creators and consumers, making interactions inherently collaborative; and more than that, the short character limit ensures that these interactions remain a dialogue rather than long-form conversations that frustrate sharing. I think suggestions like this article makes are also important beyond Twitter, because-let's be honest-it won't remain the dominant form of social media forever. Like we've talked about throughout the course, we need to be sure that technology doesn't drive change and that we don't simply adopt technologies because of their vogue; but whatever tools we end up using absolutely need to become more open and collaborative, or we risk losing student engagement and, ultimately, students themselves.

From Slacktivism to Activism: Participatory Culture in the Age of Social Media - 8 views

  •  
    "Social networking sites (e.g. Facebook), microblogging services (e.g. Twitter), and content sharing sites (e.g. YouTube and Flickr) have introduced the opportunity for wide scale, online social participation. Visibility of national and international priorities such as public health, political unrest, disaster relief, and climate change has increased, yet we know little about the benefits and possible costs of engaging in social activism via social media. "

Tell Everyone by Alfred Hermida - 2 views

  •  
    This recently published book, by a University of British Columbia journalism professor named Alfred Hermida, questions how the new culture of sharing and collaboration-and the pace of change that sharing enables-changes our lives. It's particularly interesting for us because it doesn't back away from the challenges that open access poses for us: how does being both creator and consumer change us? How does blurring the lines between these two change the way we think about the balance between copyright and the public good? Hermida doesn't tackle these last questions directly, but he provides a useful lens for thinking about our changing roles and how open knowledge and sharing need to reflect that. Considering the book's focus on sharing, it's somewhat ironic that it's not open access, but I highly recommend checking it out. It's received significant attention in the Canadian press and is exactly the kind of mainstream attention that can get conversations about open access started.

    Not everything can be shared. Aside from the 14 reasons what makes people share knowledge is because they are trust each one with the knowledge that they will share will be beneficial to the receiver of the knowledge or learning. Knowledge is power when shared.

Why We Need Open Knowledge Societies - 2 views

  •  
    "Every day we face challenges - from the personal, such as the quickest way to get to work, or what we should eat, to global ones like climate change and how to sustainably feed and educate seven billion people on this planet. At Open Knowledge we believe that opening up data - and turning that data into insight - can be crucial to addressing these challenges, and building a society in which is everyone - not just the few - are empowered with the knowledge they need to understand and effect change."
  •  
    really good! I think this is a very good summary about what we are learning in this course: "We need to create a culture of "open data makers", people able and ready to make apps and insights with open data. We need to connect open data with those who have the best questions and the biggest needs - a healthcare worker in Zambia, the London commuter travelling home - and go beyond the data geeks and the tech savvy to make data be useful to all."

Happy Kiev - 0 views

  •  
    Social media is now becoming an important platform to enhance political engagement. It is also a place where people can connect to each other, expressing political concerns. This Happy Kiev video is an outcome of today's participatory culture. A very good remix of the song "Happy" doesn't only show people in Ukraine call for peace, but it also reflects civic engagement is growing on SNS.

Why we can't quit the cloud, even if we're scared of it - The Globe and Mail - 3 views

  •  
    "As a result, it's not so simple to say that we shouldn't trust the cloud anymore, and that whatever happens to us is our fault if we do. It's an argument ignorant of the online-only reality consumer technology is hurtling toward more and more every day. Already, the cloud is the primary data store for a lot of people, for better or worse. Is it really so unreasonable to expect that the privacy, security and protection of our data should keep pace?"

Integrating Lifelong Learning Perspectives - 3 views

  •  
    From the UNESCO Institute for Education, published in 2002. Quote "As humanity invented writing 5000 years ago, the culture of shared knowledge reached a new dimension; its horizon went on expanding until it became planetary through Internet." That is just something I needed while evaluating the John Willinsky video in module 5, hoping to find an answer to his question why do we want access to knowledge.

Open-source Scholarship - Hybrid Pedagogy - 0 views

  •  
    This source makes many of the points made in the video and readings for this week; Specifically, that scholars have a duty to use open source culture as "creation and curation of human knowledge, scholarship is an open-source endeavor. The end product - human knowledge - is not a fixed product, it is distributed, has diverse manifestations, and belongs to no individual or entity." He extends this notion to pedagogy suggesting "the best pedagogy take the best of what already exists and make it better, at least better for the task at hand."
