The original paintings are based on information that is currently available, rather than the Shakespearean version of history that has often inspired artists in the past. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/9270444/forward http://www.furl.net/item/9270444 Great idea for teacher c0-operation and learning. Wed, 14 Jun 2006 13:15:25 GMT Teaching with Web Teaching with Web 2.0 del.icio.us Tag I’ve created a new del.icio.us tag and am inviting you all to use it. The Teaching with Web 2.0 tag, or tww2.0, is for all resources that...well...are useful for teaching with Web 2.0. I’ve refrained from calling it e-Learning 2.0 because it’s not clear to me that using Web 2.0 tools necessarily means that you’re doing anything revolutionary in your pedagogy. Anyway, I’d love to see some resources accumulate, so please do use the tag liberally. 5 http://www.furl.net/item/7857594/forward http://www.furl.net/item/7857594 Mon, 03 Apr 2006 16:42:01 GMT Harvard style - referencing electronic sources Contents: Introduction Individual works Citing E-Journals Jiscmail/Listserv email lists Personal electronic communications (E-mail) 3 http://www.furl.net/item/7857557/forward http://www.furl.net/item/7857557 referencing electronic sources Harvard style Mon, 03 Apr 2006 16:38:42 GMT Harvard style - referencing electronic sources Contents * Introduction to referencing works from the Internet * Electronic journal articles * Electronic books * Web pages and whole web sites * CD-ROMs and computer databases * Online images: visual information, photographs and illustrations * Email discusssion lists and personal email messages 3 http://www.furl.net/item/7857341/forward http://www.furl.net/item/7857341 citating electronic sources -good links Mon, 03 Apr 2006 16:29:07 GMT Internet Basics: learning resources 3 http://www.furl.net/item/7719001/forward http://www.furl.net/item/7719001 Sun, 26 Mar 2006 02:50:27 GMT Chinese people online Back to the Web 2.0 services in China, early I have read the new study report about the China Web 2.0 Report (through the link you could get the Chinese version of this report) by Internet Society of China. Some information pointed out in this report was my main concerns. The first one is awareness of Web 2.0 is very low, 73.3% of the respondents don’t know what the Web 2.0 is. I guessed if the the respondents were asked directly that if they know about RSS, blogging, podcasting, etc, then the number would be much higher instead of asking what the Web 2.0 is. Based on some resources on the Web (sorry about that I could trace that soure of the information), this percentage is lower than that of America. The other concern is the summary of the popluar Web 2.0 services in China within this Report. * Blogging service: Most used blogging services are Bokee(51.4%), Sina Blog(26.3%) and Sohu Blog(18.0%). The survey does not include MSN My Spaces service. 9% bloggers update daily, 73% bloggers will update at least once a week * RSS readers: The leading rss readers are Sina DDT, Bokee RSS Reader, My MSN, Gougou, Potu, Kantianxia; * Social Networking: The leading SNS are Yeeyoo, UUZone, ChinaCircle, You2You, Niwota, UUMe and Linkist. * Social Bookmarking: Sina Vivi ranks No. 1 (27.2%), followed by Bokee Blogmark(22.5%), 365key(14.6%) and Hexun Bookmark(11.6%). * Podcasting service: Yahoo Podcasting (32.6%), VVlogger, Lifepop, Toodou, and Podcast.com.cn. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/7407496/forward http://www.furl.net/item/7407496 Tue, 07 Mar 2006 14:28:52 GMT Instant Messaging 3 http://www.furl.net/item/4165766/forward http://www.furl.net/item/4165766 Sat, 13 Aug 2005 14:16:26 GMT Richard III Richard III started the College of Arms in his short reign so heraldry of the time was perhaps not quite so sure of itself. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/4101855/forward http://www.furl.net/item/4101855 Mon, 08 Aug 2005 10:06:21 GMT Instant Messaging What Is This? It makes me feel good when people read my blog. Problem is, I never know when people visit. As a result, I'm always running my page counters up checking to see if anyone's visited. To solve this problem, I've put together a service to send out alerts via AIM whenever someone reads a blog entry. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/4101826/forward http://www.furl.net/item/4101826 Mon, 08 Aug 2005 09:56:12 GMT Wiki the primary group exercise at the event was to write a book. The exact topic and format was not specified -- that would evolve as the workshop unfolded. The book exercise solved many problems. .... it built knowledge assembly into the workshop process. More importantly, it made the participants responsible for that assembly, which kept them invested in the content.... At this event, the participants documented the workshop themselves using the Wiki. As an initial exercise, we precreated pages for every participant. We then asked people to add some information about themselves, then to go through the Wiki and comment on another page that interested them. Having people write in their own pages allowed us to avoid a massive edit conflict problem. 3
