Scott Hanselman's Complete List of Productivity Tips - Scott Hanselman - 2 views

  •  
    "Pulling a page from author and software developer Jon Udell, Hanselman encourages you to "conserve your keystrokes." What does this mean? He explains by example: If Brian emails me a really interesting question about ASP.net … and I send him back an exciting and long, five-paragraph with a code sample email that solves his problem, I just gave him the gift of 10,000 of my keystrokes. But there is a finite number of keystrokes left in my hands before I die, and I am never going to get those keystrokes back and I've just gifted them to Brian. And I don't even know if he reads that email. So what should I do to multiply these keystrokes given that there is a finite number of those keystrokes left in my hands? I write a blog post and I mail him the link. Then after I'm dead, my keystrokes multiple-every time I get a page view that's 5,000 keystrokes that I did not have to type."

      it's that old phrase - what's the use in doing the research if you don't tell anyone about it? same thing.  if you've got all this great data and publish it somewhere but we don't have a way of aggregating that data in the varied publications - how are we ever going to find all the great work that's being done?

      i'll pose the question i asked using #vcuocdi - how do people catalog their student products from semester to semester?  where does that live?  what's the point of keeping it all on your external hard drive? is there a way we can share that Openly (using the concepts of Open Education and Access) ...

      i would think providing access to student generated products along with accompanying rubrics would be a fantastic way of advancing evaluation
