    Distributed Story Online - Workshop Template More here personalizemedia.com - Being used as part of a course but openly published for general use. Please attribute (draft in further development with other assets). This cross-genre, new format, online story development sheet should be printed A3 and ideas for each area can be sketched in. It helps media creators understand how to develop across multiple online channels and spaces and what fragments of the story can be cross connected. It is suggested that you number each instance with the 'release' date to help aid the campaign thinking. The axes indicate the likely 'maintenance' required - top right most maintenance (rich living environments) and bottom left least maintenance (ad hoc textual updates). NOTE: All the below can be on PC or mobile or console.

The Truth About Ladders - Common Craft - Our Product is Explanation - 0 views

  •  
    If you're trying to change someone's behavior, don't be so direct about your points... Use a story that connects to some universal truth about the subject-at-hand.  Give people a way to see the high-level consequences of their behavior, good or bad, and they may identify with your words in a whole new way.

Are kids really motivated by technology? | SmartBlogs SmartBlogs - 0 views

  • What students are really motivated by are opportunities to be social — to interact around challenging concepts in powerful conversations with their peers. They are motivated by issues connected to fairness and justice. They are motivated by the important people in their lives, by the opportunity to wrestle with the big ideas rolling around in their minds, and by the often-troubling changes they see happening in the world around them. Technology’s role in today’s classroom, then, isn’t to motivate. It’s to give students opportunities to efficiently and effectively participate in motivating activities built around the individuals and ideas that matter to them.
  • Basically what I’m arguing is that finding ways to motivate students in our classrooms shouldn’t start with conversations about technology. Instead, it should start with conversations about our kids. What are they deeply moved by? What are they most interested in? What would surprise them? Challenge them? Leave them wondering? Once you have the answers to these questions — only after you have the answers to these questions — are you ready to make choices about the kinds of digital tools that are worth embracing.

Stephen Fry on the dawn of the digital age - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporat... - 0 views

  • "It's always been the case that whatever young people are doing now and whatever is the fashion now, there will be crusty and unfortunately ignorant people who think that somehow it has less weight, less heft, less intellectual respectability, less connection with our cultural identity, less seriousness," he said. "It's nearly always nonsense."
  •  
    "In what could be one of the great misjudgments since the record company that turned down The Beatles, one of Stephen Fry's teachers once described him as "feckless, fickle, flamboyant and evasive .. He told ABC Radio's PM of his enthusiasm for all things digital, including micro-blogging site Twitter, which he think has also been misjudged as trivial."
  •  
    Fascinating to read this interview with Stephen Fry and consider how he has engaged with social media such as Twitter.

  • it is so useful I shot a video to show how it works
  •  
    "The iPad running Air Display works like any monitor on the Mac, and is configurable using the standard OS X Display Preferences .. it is the equivalent of buying a new monitor for your Mac."
  •  
    A pricy but very handy app for the iPad that works over a wireless connection. Although the review talks about OSX, this also works with a Windows desktop.
