    I used this tool (among others) when designing wireframes for my final project. It's a helpful resource if you need to communicate design decisions to collaborators in different spaces.

HELP WANTED: Reinventing MOOC discussion boards - 11 views

  • jesseharris
     
    My final project for the #OKMOOC involves imagining how the EdX discussion board platform might be redesigned to improve learners access to knowledge.

    Please take a moment to share (A) one thing you find helpful about the discussion board, (B) one frustration or challenge, and (C) a suggestion for how this might be accomplished.

    Your feedback will not only be helpful to my project, but it may be shared with EdX or others interested in redesigning discussion boards within MOOCs. Thanks in advance for your help!

Wikipedia funding model - rebuttal to online donation strategy from 2010 - 5 views

  •  
    I followed a trail about Wikipedia that led me to their funding model. This is an interesting rebuttal to their strategy of asking users for donations atop the page (sort of a PBS/NPR model for those in the US). Interesting to think about how advertising or marketing might play into the Wikipedia model, and how it might change the dynamic of the conversation.

Reality Hunger - 0 views

  •  
    A fascinating and meta conversation about the notion of reality, truthiness, and attribution. David Shields remixes works from hundreds of other authors (without attribution) to interrogate these topics and more. From Wikipedia: Reality Hunger consists of 618 numbered passages divided into twenty-six chapters. Approximately half of the book's words come from sources other than the author. Because of Random House lawyers, attribution for the quotes is given in a fine print appendix at the end of the book, but with Shields's encouragement to cut those pages from the book so as to preserve the book's intended disorienting effect

Bruce Willis versus Apple: do we own what we download? - Telegraph Blogs - 1 views

  •  
    This is an interesting article that scotches the surface of what happens when digital rights meet physical deceives. Who owns the songs on our iPhones? What about eBooks? Can these be passed down? An interesting discussion follows in the comments - and even though Bruce Willis' name has been erroneously attached, the subject is still worth examining.
