Fatal flaws in website censorship plan, says report - web - Technology - 0 views

  • Professor Landfeldt, one of Australia's leading telecommunications experts, says some of the fundamental flaws of the scheme raised in his report include: � All filtering systems will be easily circumvented using readily available software. � Censors maintaining the blacklist will never be able to keep up with the amount of new content published on the web every second. � Filters using real-time analysis of sites to determine whether content is inappropriate are not effective, capture wanted content, are easy to bypass and slow network speeds exponentially as accuracy increases. � Entire user-generated content sites such as YouTube and Wikipedia could be blocked over a single video or article. � Filters would be costly and difficult to implement for ISPs and put many smaller ISPs out of business. � While the communciations authority's blacklist would be withheld from internet users, all 700 ISPs would have access to it, so it could easily be leaked. � The filters would not censor content on peer-to-peer file sharing networks such as LimeWire, chat rooms, email and instant messaging; � ISPs and the Government could be legally liable for the scheme's failures, particularly as content providers have no right to appeal against being blocked unnecessarily.

Blastgroups - Create a Free Group Website and Email List for any Group - 1 views

  •  
    A Blast Group is similar to a Ning, but FREE!! Allows the creation, for each of your students, their own page. It can have their own "stream", plus you can have a main page with a forum, blog, links, calendar etc. The idea is that students will contribute useful links etc, have a place where they can bounce ideas off each other, be aware of deadlines, as well as having their own space to capture their thoughts as we go along. Blast Groups can be private or public

    Moodle quiz is probably better but if a teacher is stuck, this may be the way to go.

How can we help you to learn with mobiles - PBL project « - 3 views

  • useful to the functional needs of school administration and proof of action
    • Tony Searl
       
      the same as it is for any systemic ICT (intranet, MAANG, email) It is NOT outward from student/teacherr, it is heavily "down to" them. Hence uptake is poor at best, ignored completely at worst but admin is happy because it is available.) What happened to those simple ICT/saas/paas audits?
  • The project, as always, needs to make a product, and a case to an audience.
    • Tony Searl
       
      as do the echo chambers of walled garden hell, but because this is provided as expertise, what is dished up is not questioned sufficiently, let alone updated/audited for functional use. Designers/providers rarely use what they perceive as "offered" as the end consumers using those same consumer's metrics of time, space, function with all associated limitations.
  • how developing nations are using phones
    • Tony Searl
       
      LDN's also don't face the tyranny of unschooling. Tabula rasa is a great strength of emerging design in LDC's. Government's will eventually respond to this closing gap for economic reasons not educational ones. Unfortunately
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Best of all it takes the case to the people who make decisions, policy and rules about the use of phones
  • very high numbers of students simple do not respond to anything
  •  
    students simply don't respond to using a learning management system, (not that it is an LMS, but it includes edmodo BTW)
