    Twitter and Google Reader for Productivity

    Apr 10, 2009   //   by Ben Wilkoff   //   Uncategorized  //  No Comments

    (All quotations are not exact, but paraphrases of much better words that were in the mouths of the participants – These are notes, but I think that they might have benefit to others, so I am posting them on my blog as well)

    I just wanted to use this space in order to make sure that we take note of all of our discussion surrounding how to use twitter and google reader for productivity.

    “We don’t want to jump on the bandwagon with all new products. But, where does iGoogle, twitter, and blog feeds fit in our district’s overall vision.”

    “Just because things are free, doesn’t mean we should be using them and promoting it.”

    “Conceptually, the idea of everything coming to you is very inciting, but we need to look further at it from the Google Reader perspective and Twitter.”

    “The real question is where do we spend our time? What is really of value?”

    “Television news is too slow. I want to be able to know more about the things that I am interested in. I want it to be hyperlinked.”

    “I don’t have enough time to consume things in a serial manner. I don’t want to know what happened yesterday before I know what happened today.”

    “White papers are specific enough. I want relevancy and making sure that it is current.”

    1. Decide on your purpose for using feeds. What information would you like to be able to access that you can’t currently?
        • Topics to look at:
          • Stimulus and education
            • CDE does a good job of talking about the stimulus, but they don’t have a feed.
          • Broadband and education
          • Virtual Learning Environments
    2. Making your reading relevant: What are the topics that you would like to come to you?
      1. http://surfmind.com/lab/msn/opml/
      2. http://monitorthis.info/
      3. Google Reader Bundles
    3. How do you want information to come to you?

    Condensation

    Apr 6, 2009   //   by Ben Wilkoff   //   Uncategorized  //  1 Comment

    I was at a restaurant this morning with my family and my wife’s
    fingers were getting stickier and stickier from the leaky maple syrup
    container. After a while she started looking for some water to wash
    them off with. Her water cup was empty but the condensation on the
    outside was still there so she used it to clean her hands.
     
    I’m not sure why this sparked something in me, but the act of her
    using only the water that was on the outside of the glass made me
    think of what is happening in many school districts that I see around
    me.
     
    We can see the water, the life giving liquid inside, but we have to
    settle for the small beads collecting around the outer edge.
     
    We know that the bandwidth that is needed to fully share with one
    another the media, ideas and resources of our district is available.
    It exists for businesses and other entities out there, but in
    education we are stuck with the runoff from those large high speed
    pipes.
     
    We need a straw, but we are stuck licking at the glass.
     
    (The preceding metaphor is stretched pretty thin, but I did want to
    get it out there just in case someone else found it useful.)

    Getting excited about an idea, not a tool

    Feb 7, 2009   //   by Ben Wilkoff   //   Uncategorized  //  2 Comments

    So, for a while in our district has been very excited about certain tools that they have invested in. At various times, they have been excited about SchoolCenter, iWork, Garageband, Powerpoint, Smart Notebook, and quite a few others.
     
    While I have never been a real big fan of this type of technology integration, I can understand it. It exists so that most people have something to hang their hat on at the end of the day. It exists because it is so much easier to implement a tool than it is an idea. An idea (at least a good one) requires rethinking every tool and its usefulness; it requires questioning a strategy that is based on tools.
     
    So, I have to say, when I put together the presentation earlier this week on asking the really big question of “what is the web for?” I didn’t think it would be taken seriously. I thought that it would be looked at only for the tools that are behind creating learning networks and role-specific portals. Well, at least so far, I have been proven wrong. All of my conversations this week have been without the specific tools that have bogged us down so many times before. I have actually heard other people say that tieing together all of the project-specific tools is a much better way than tying us to any one tool. I’m not sure how long this conversation is going to last, but you can bet that I will be riding it for all that it is worth.

    The Ripe Environment: The Markers

    Jun 26, 2008   //   by Ben Wilkoff   //   Uncategorized  //  No Comments

    The “I know it when I see it” form of collaboration is no longer valid.

    We need new ways to tell if learning is happening through group contribution. We need to be able to assess collaboration, but we can’t do it the same way that we assess writing or proficiency. Those skills are much easier to boil down to a continuum or rubric. Others have tried, and we have been for the most part satisfied with their traditional, enigmatic, and mostly non-educational continuums for collaboration.

    These forms, however, are not worthy of our cause. They provide us with a way to see things in an abstract sense, showing a fictional path to collaboration that is just as hopeless as using the term as a buzzword to show that change is occurring.

    Instead, I would like to outline the types of collaboration that occur in The Ripe Environment. These are the markers that we should be striving for and looking for:

    1. Learning objects to be used by multiple learners, created by multiple learners. (This does not include one person writing or creating and the others supplying their input. True collaboration means that everyone has their fingerprints on the potting wheel.)
    2. Collaborative asynchronous lists. (Never underestimate the power of listing. And yet, the power is not in the listing. It is in the reordering, reorganizing, and reconstituting a list. Think of wiki collaboration here.)
    3. A followable thread of discussion (This can be through linking, commenting, or something like voicethread)
    4. Shared Space with over 10 revisions (Any object or space that has been edited or revised more than ten times by multiple authors can be considered a respectable work of collaboration).
    5. A mash-up or remix of anything (This type of collaboration marker is the halmark of true collaboration. The best examples are when the masher doesn’t know the mashee. That is when the unintended (but most amazing) concequences of sharing and collaboration kick in.)

    Obviously this is not an exhaustive list. What are the other markers of collaboration in The Ripe Environment?

    My Students Are Known For…

    May 29, 2007   //   by Ben Wilkoff   //   Uncategorized  //  No Comments

    itunes pic
    This is the first podcast that I have done on my new MacBook and I was used GarageBand rather than ChapterToolMe in order to create the chapters. I have, as of yet, not been able to find a way of exporting the chapters and links into html using GarageBand, so you will have to download the show in order to get the links. If anyone has a way of doing this, I would love to hear about it.

    As for the episode itself, I have been hoping for a very long time that my students are learning everything that I want them to. I want them to come back to me after years of amazing creation and show me just how much influence they have derived from my class. I do not expect to change each of my students, but I do believe that many of my students see value in the School 2.0 environment that we are trying to create. The three things that I want them to be known for and to come back and tell me all about are Authenticity, Analysis, and Passion. If they have those three things down, there is no telling what they can do.
