    Downes's comments in OLDaily, Feb 7: The medium is the message? Jaap Bosman, Hit the balloon, comment, February 6, 2014 Icon "Language needs a medium," said Jaap Bosman. By contrast, to me, language is a medium. "Learning depends on language, the medium (books, blogs) of the language restricts or benefits the learning," he writes. To me, language is only one of the many media we could use to support learning. Becominbg literate in the 21st century means recognizing that literacy applies far beyond language; it's a way of understanding the world.

    "Keith Hamon'" decalcomania is a process for transferring a pattern from one thing to another, and it describes quite accurately how we create meaning in our minds. In decalcomania, a surface with a potent image or medium is pressed against another surface. After the two surfaces are separated, self-similar images reside on both surfaces

    "Subsequently, the presence of electronic media for creating, distributing and communicating information, knowledge and meaning has grown more widely and more dramatically than perhaps even he could have foreseen. Within this context, I want to try to stitch together a few concepts, perspectives and examples with which I am more or less familiar and perhaps update the core implication of McLuhan's famous phrase."

How PowerPoint is killing critical thought | Andrew Smith | Comment is free | The Guardian - 1 views

  • One either accepts them in toto, or not at all.

      I seriously disagree with this statement. Not only can the audience pick and choose which bullets they swallow, the speaker herself also can deviate or disagree with what they previously had written. PowerPoint can be as dominating as the author suggests, but only if the PP user allows it to do that - in which case any other medium (including blackboard) would do the same.
  • It’s dangerous because it can create the illusion of understanding and the illusion of control.

      so does any other medium for presenting information - including text. This author has proved that he can create the "illusion of understanding" without approaching at all a nuanced understanding of his subject.

      This is difficult to imagine for someone who has not experienced the richness of an asynchronous online learning community - and equally difficult to explain TO someone who has not.

      It only needs to work well a few times. In my experience, the ocasional live interaction does a great deal to "cement" the relationships already formed in asynchrous spaces.
