Great article on some digital humanities projects and how they relate to undergraduate teaching. Many of the projects involve digital archives, libraries or databases. I think this is the kind of work future academic libraries can help facilitate
Not sure why it isn't registering that I viewed this... Fascinating article- wish I could share via FB since only classmates see this and I think my teacher friends would find this interesting as well. Just another way diigo limits its usefulness. Great find though!
I cite this article on one of my pages. I am also trying to upload it (to doc sharing?) as a pdf because people say that these articles are behind the new pay wall.
I have uploaded other pdf documents at the bottom of one of my pages, but not the Times articles because I thought they would be accessible through the link. However, I don't know whether people notice docs at the bottom of the Google page even though I say "attached below" in the citation. The Times articles are now on ecollege in doc sharing and attached to my discussion reply. I hope that the Economist doesn't block users.
A group effort sharing information about all literacies (digital literacy, media literacy, information literacy, visual literacy, 21st century literacies, transliteracies ) with special focus on all libraries.
Just realized this is missing "geospatial literacy" which is one of the areas I am interested in, but this looks like a great site. Similar to what we are doing on the topic of social informatics via diigo.
This strikes me as an incredibly uncritical and self serving article. Maybe this is just because every time one "moves" to the next page a Dell ad pops up. With the decrease of school funding and the increase of connection costs and databases, I would hate to have to rely on only online resources.
I mentioned this video in a comment I made in this week's discussion. It highlights several reasons why school librarians are so essential now more than ever.
