a tool that is less about pushing out information and more about processing information. It is still shared in that it is open and available, but the focus is not on the sharing, but the use of the tool to organize and build up personal knowledge stores. Wikity is built around a card system. If you find something that you find interesting, you copy it as a card to your own space and that info is now yours to edit as you please.
Web Ink Now: Friending cats and following eggs: On social networks you ARE your photo - 0 views

the default "egg" on Twitter and silhouette Facebook. The default says: “I can’t be bothered to upload an image.

But when somebody has an image that is not an actual photo of them, I hesitate and usually do not connect. Why are they hiding? Why use a dog or flower or building, or famous person, or logo instead?

Now I am not saying that all people that share a picture of themselves on the Internet are the people they represent themselves to be. That would be extremely naive. It is just easier to connect and build trust with a person rather than an avatar.

Modeling -- involves an expert's carrying out a task so that student can observe and build a conceptual model of the processes that are required to accomplish the task. For example, a teacher might model the reading process by reading aloud in one voice, while verbalizing her thought processes (summarize what she just read, what she thinks might happen next) in another voice. Coaching - consists of observing students while they carry out a task and offering hints, feedback, modeling, reminders, etc. Articulation - includes any method of getting students to articulate their knowledge, reasoning, or problem-solving processes. Reflection - enables students to compare their own problem-solving processes with those of an expert or another student. Exploration - involves pushing students into a mode of problem solving on their own. Forcing them to do exploration is critical, if they are to learn how to frame questions or problems that are interesting and that they can solve (Collins, Brown, Newman, 1989, 481-482).
State of Washington to Offer Online Materials, Instead of Textbooks, for 2-Year College... - 0 views

If the course designers feel that the best instructional materials are online versions of traditional textbooks, that's fine. Or they can use a smorgasbord of teaching modules and exercises developed by other open-learning projects, such as those created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Carnegie Mellon University. Interactive-learning Web sites and even instructional videos on YouTube are also perfectly acceptable resources.

Traditional textbook publishers, which now promote e-textbooks, aren't the solution, insisted David Lippman, who teaches math at Pierce College and is a self-confessed open-source purist. "I find the publishers' online offerings nothing more than the old ancillaries they've always offered bundled up in a proprietary system," he said.

Maybe we collectively need a Sociology 101 textbook (with all of the supplemental materials included). Ohio (or Washington or Texas or Florida) releases an RFP for the creation of a "Sociology 101" textbook. Maybe you win the bid ... maybe Pearson wins the bid. The difference is, the publisher does not own the copyright - the State of Ohio owns the copyright - and chooses to share that textbook with everyone with a CC BY license. Everyone can now use / modify the open textbook, Ohio has saved a bunch of money for its students, so did other states / countries, and the publisher still had an income stream.

FERPA and Social Media - Faculty Focus | Faculty Focus - 0 views

“FERPA cannot be interpreted as building a total and complete wall between the school and the community. We would have really bad schools if that happened and very disengaged students.
-
FERPA was never intended to place students into the box of a physical or online classroom to prevent them from learning from the public. Rather, FERPA requires schools to maintain control over certain student records (Fryer, 2009). These records include medical information, social security numbers, and grades.
-
Some people think that students cannot release any personally identifiable student information, but this is also not true.
