The document discusses the concept of a pedagogy of abundance compared to traditional scarcity-based models. A pedagogy of abundance would be based on assumptions that content is free, abundant, varied and easily shared in a social, connected environment. It explores approaches like resource-based learning, problem-based learning, constructivism, and communities of practice as possible models and concludes that either existing theories need recasting for new technologies or a new theory is required to capture changes in behavior.

The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly: A Language of Critique for Information Archi...Stacy Surla
Information architecture is more than wireframes. But we’re confined by the mindset that thinks IA is a box to check off on a project plan. A language of critique is going to help change this discourse.
So what’s a language of critique for IA? And what’s wrong with whatever we’re using now?
Constructing Meaning is Bloody Work: Make Everyone a Winner in the Taxonomy WarsWendy Stengel
Are you faced with bringing scads of sites with scores of content owners and nearly as many tagging schemes into one unified content ecosystem? In this session, you'll learn how to embrace the chaos, balance the needs for freedom and control, and build better content experiences for your users by creating and caring for a folksonomy-guided taxonomy.

As social networks become an ever increasing part of our online lives what happens to all of the data that we create as we leave comments on friends profiles, upload pictures and make online purchases? It SHOULD be your data too bad that's not always the case. This presentation discusses what data privacy and identity ownership mean in a networked world. Presented to Podcamp Kilkenny September 2008.
2010 was a big year for the Open Data community, some Ordnance Survey data was made freely available, data.gov.uk launched with a raft of data from across government, government published an open data license and then a new government took over who seem to be equally committed to Open Data. So far we have seen Local Government brought into the Open Data initiative (albeit with a bit of a struggle) and most recently aggregated crime data has been published on police.uk.

In visual arts and graphic design, white space is fundamental to allowing a creation to exist, by creating delineation and focus. Similarly, in our lives, creativity often sprouts from the "white space" of time: the moments in our increasingly busy schedules between activities and thoughts that allow the subconscious to better absorb and connect information. Clearly, in order to be more creative, we need to open up this "in-between" space in our lives, but once we've done so, how can we best capitalize upon the brain's natural creative capacities? In this talk, we'll explore several counter-intuitive and potentially subversive methods for leveraging this "white space" to foment innovative thinking creative productivity.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Editor's Notes
I want to explore whether there is anything in this idea, so it’s not really a presentation of a well thought out theory, more a sharing of a half-baked idea.
My starting point is to use changes in economic models as a metaphor or comparison for changes in pedagogy
Don’t get too hung up on the economic angle
Let’s start with basic economics – it is mostly based around a model of scarcity, of limited resources. Be it food, energy, goods, expertise, knowledge – 5 minute university – supply and demand is all you need to know. The more scarce something is and the higher the demand the more it costs. We build models to control this equation
I often use changes in the music industry but with the metaphors are dangerous caveat. So in the music industry talent is scarce, and it’s also hard to find. SO you employ A&R people to find it, then you record it, and manufacture products based on demand. You then need a physical network to distribute this – access used to be scare – if you wanted a record you had to wait, your local shop may not have it etc
But a different model applies when it becomes abundant. Talent is still scarce, but locating it is easy, distributing it is free, the content can be reproduced at zero cost. All the previous model which was based on scarcity breaks down
There are two responses – those that accept the new abundance and try to work with it and those that try to recreate the scarcity model Long tail – eg amazon, netflix, etc Freemium – eg flickr Services – eg open source Offer digita version for free but pay for physical object – some publishers Run it by ads – everyone Contentv is free but pay for some real experience – eg gigs Relation with business
Scarcity responses want to reestablish the previous model in the digital age – so strict DRM that prevents you sharing or copying, strong legal enforcement, even subscription models to conent
If we now think about education – it too was based on a scarcity model.
We can think of many existing practices as embodying these principles of scarcity
Look at some contenders RBL conceptualises learning as a process which foregrounds the importance of the resources available to learners and in so doing presupposes that the interaction between the learner(s) and the resources (which may include human resources) is the main structuring device of the learning situation
Characteristics of PBL are:Learning is driven by challenging, open-ended problems.Students work in small collaborative groups.Teachers take on the role as "facilitators" of learning
“ Social constructivist scholars view learning as an active process where learners should learn to discover principles, concepts and facts for themselves, hence the importance of encouraging guesswork and intuitive thinking in learners (Brown et al.1989; Ackerman 1996). In fact, for the social constructivist, reality is not something that we can discover because it does not pre-exist prior to our social invention of it. Kukla (2000) argues that reality is constructed by our own activities and that people, together as members of a society, invent the properties of the world. ”
describes a group of people who share an interest, a craft, and/or a profession. It is in the process of sharing information and experiences in that group that the members learn from each other, and have an opportunity to develop themselves personally and professionally See also situated learning, cognitive apprenticeship
Learning and knowledge rests in diversity of opinions. Learning is a process of connecting specialized nodes or information sources. Learning may reside in non-human appliances. Capacity to know more is more critical than what is currently known Nurturing and maintaining connections is needed to facilitate continual learning. Ability to see connections between fields, ideas, and concepts is a core skill. Currency (accurate, up-to-date knowledge) is the intent of all connectivist learning activities. Decision-making is itself a learning process. Choosing what to learn and the meaning of incoming information is seen through the lens of a shifting reality. While there is a right answer now, it may be wrong tomorrow due to alterations in the information climate affecting the decision
