This document discusses the future of education with the rise of technology and global collaboration. It notes how knowledge is now socially constructed through ubiquitous technologies that allow people worldwide to work together, modifying and rebuilding knowledge through open-source tools. Finally, it emphasizes that how we develop technologies and online communities will directly impact opportunities for young people and influence the type of society that emerges.
The document discusses key concepts in open and connected learning including openness, transparency, sharing, freedom, small tools loosely joined, networks for creating, sharing and learning, immersion for understanding, discovery, literacies as a lifelong process, and assessment through purposeful feedback. It also references how new generations are empowered and impatient with traditional institutions, making this an incredible time for the young and talented.

Smoothing Space for Collaboration & InnovationTryggvi Thayer
This document discusses concepts of "striated space" and "smooth space" from Deleuze and Guattari, and how social media can create smooth spaces that encourage nomadic learning. Smooth spaces have no fixed pathways and allow for discovery, serendipity, and creating new meanings. The presenter argues that technologies like eTwinning can act as nomadic spaces by facilitating collaboration, communication, and exploration beyond traditional boundaries. Emerging technologies may further blend the virtual and physical, enabling new forms of collaboration and learning.
This document discusses connectivism and lifelong learning in the digital age. It defines connectivism as a learning theory where learning and knowledge are distributed across networks, and learning consists of forming connections. It also discusses how the half-life of knowledge is decreasing and more knowledge is "soft", meaning it changes rapidly. It suggests incorporating connectivism into classrooms by teaching its basic concepts, defining networks and their implications, and using tools like blogs and wikis to facilitate lifelong learning through connection and adaptation to changing information.
Microteaching was invented in 1963 at Stanford University to allow teachers to safely practice teaching skills. Transformation can occur at the individual, organizational, industry, or societal level, and is driven by the entity and its environment. The office of the 21st century aims to use computer vision and graphics to create immersive 3D environments for remote collaboration, allowing distant collaborators to feel together in a shared space. The computer age gave way to the information age, characterized by advances in communication and information technology that allow easy, instant access to knowledge.

The document discusses how social software and open access to information has impacted knowledge sharing and epistemology. It notes that freely accessible information online does not necessarily lead to knowledge and there is a difference between knowing facts and knowing how to apply them. It questions how information found on the internet should be judged and whether people tend to accept online content at face value without suspicion or selection.
The document discusses how technology has changed knowledge production and communication. It explores how social media has enabled a democratization of knowledge by allowing anyone to publish information for a global audience. While the volume of accessible knowledge has grown, the document questions whether this has actually led to more growth in what is considered true knowledge. It suggests social media plays a role in knowledge production but should complement, not replace, traditional methods of peer review and rigorous fact-checking.
How does the infosphere change the learning process?Michal Černý
We can no longer fine-tune the school, but we need to change it. We've got it together to create a place where they can develop and be with others. The school must become a place that will lead to the ability to find a dynamic homeostatic balance with the rapidly changing unstable environment.
Digital Humanities 101, ENGL 206, January 27, 2015Elizabeth Skene
This document provides an overview of digital humanities. It discusses definitions of digital humanities from various sources, noting that it is not a unified field but involves using digital tools and technologies to study humanities subjects. Key aspects identified include working with digitized information, metadata, preservation of digital materials, and open access. Values emphasized include public engagement, inclusiveness, and empowering diverse voices. Concerns are raised that digital archives could repeat power imbalances and privileging of certain voices over others.
This document discusses the major social changes brought about by digital technologies and globalization. It argues that all institutions, including education, are being transformed in this new digital world. While e-learning is both a symptom and potential solution, its full potential remains constrained by issues of access, ownership, and openness. For learning to be truly transformative, it must engage with these new digital logics and help facilitate a large-scale restructuring of cultural production and knowledge institutions comparable to past periods of major change.
New & updated slideshow for book talks during 2013/2014 related to my book "Media Life" (published October 2012 by Polity Press). More information & introduction: http://deuze.blogspot.se/2012/09/living-in-media.html
This document discusses the history and future of educational technology and pedagogy. It explores how technology has shifted learning from an individual objective model to a more social constructivist approach. Early educators in the 1840s saw potential in chalkboards and magic lanterns to engage students visually. Later, Thomas Edison predicted that moving pictures would make school so enjoyable that students would want to attend. More recently, connected technologies like blogs, microblogs, wikis and social networks have facilitated collaborative and networked learning communities beyond the walls of the classroom. The document advocates a connected, participatory pedagogy for the digital age.
The document discusses the opportunities for teaching and learning presented by new technologies and networked environments, including access to multimedia, tools for collaboration and connection, and the ability to share and create new forms of content. It also cautions that while new technologies open up possibilities, their implementation requires care to avoid unintended negative consequences and ensure educational value. The document advocates for open, connected, social learning experiences that empower student-driven exploration and creativity.
The document discusses the need to design schools for a digital, global era by translating changes in information, economics, and learning into school practices. It notes that learning is becoming more open, multimodal, real-time, individualized, flexible, shared, networked, global, accessible, self-directed, free, adaptive, personalized, multimedia-based, crowdsourced, transparent, collaborative, connected, convenient and technological. It argues schools must empower students by helping them master the information landscape and be economically productive members of a changing society.
The document is about the Open Knowledge Network, which uses advocacy and technology to open up knowledge and empower citizens and organizations to drive positive change. It builds tools and communities to create, use, and share open knowledge - content and data that everyone can use, share, and build on. The Network believes that an open knowledge commons and related tools and communities can significantly improve governance, research, and the economy. It advocates that knowledge should be open and free to use, reuse, redistribute without restriction.
Water to the Thirsty Reflections on the Ethical Mission of Libraries and Open...Matilde Fontanin
The shift to digital information determines a parallel shift in access modes, and digital libraries are called to action by the ethical foundations of their mission. Open Access makes information potentially available not just to researchers, but to everyone, yet there are still barriers to be overcome in terms of technical infra-structures, points of access, digital and cultural divide.
The mission of libraries, as stated by IFLA Manifesto for Digital Libraries and IFLA/FAIFECode of Ethics for Librarians and other Information Workers, con-verges with the mission and ethics of the BBB declarations on Open Access: it is about delivering information to everyone, from scholars to the “curious minds”, and librarians can be mediators in the wide diffusion, at all levels of society, of scientific, scholarly knowledge, to foster “active” and “scientific” citizenship.
7 apri lgaryboydvz security with libertywed7aprilGary Boyd
This document proposes a method of balancing security and liberty through cybersystemically-informed transformative e-learning. It argues that past approaches have increased productivity but not equality or liberty. The proposal is for worldwide variegated e-learning involving trust-building, problem-posing, modeling, and collaboration to help people integrate their perspectives. This may help address issues related to human nature, existential anxiety, and the need for security and identity propagation, by respecting requisite complexity through a cybernetic understanding of dynamic systems. Questions are invited.
Connectivism -Learning in the digital ageJose Silva
Connectivism is a learning theory proposed by George Siemens that is suited for the digital age. It asserts that learning occurs through connections within networks, and that knowledge resides in diversity of opinions from specialized nodes. The ability to see connections and navigate complex information landscapes is more important than what is currently known. Seven broad trends including increased individualism and connectivity, immediacy, and blurring of physical and virtual worlds shape the need for connectivist learning principles like anchoring information, filtering, evaluating, and developing pattern recognition skills.

Workshop for the 24th ATEE Conference (Mallorca2009). Teacher training sessions for developing inter cultural dialogue, plurilingualism and the paradigma of "being", taking into account multiple intelligences.
This document discusses the social nature of technology, cognition, learning, and knowledge. Some key points made include:
- Technology reflects social values and ideologies and shapes new realities
- Learning is a social and networked phenomenon enabled by tools and connections between people
- Individual knowledge is only possible due to social engagement and participation
- New technologies provide opportunities for new connections and relationships between people
The document discusses the impact of technology on universities. It notes that while universities have existed for over a millennium, technological changes are driving changes today. It explores how the organization of knowledge has evolved from encyclopedias to memes to today's online environment where everything is "miscellaneous." While technology enables access to information and freedom of expression, it can also isolate users in "filter bubbles" and cause "information obesity." The document questions whether technology enhances or hinders curiosity, and whether those who remember pre-Internet times are fortunate or unfortunate. It concludes by considering the potential roles of social media in academia, such as facilitating collaboration and monitoring research.

Effective January 1, 2010, HUD is implementing changes to mortgage origination and closing processes. This includes requiring loan originators to provide borrowers a Standard Good Faith Estimate that clearly discloses key loan terms and closing costs. Closing agents will provide borrowers a revised HUD-1 Settlement Statement. Additionally, HUD is eliminating the cap on origination fees for FHA loans and changing the FHA appraisal ordering and broker approval processes. Industry experts will host a webinar on December 1st to help the mortgage industry better understand these new HUD requirements taking effect in the new year.

SEO Presentation - Mortgage Tech Summit 2011Mark Madsen
Regardless of what the social media gurus tell you, there is more to getting your mortgage blog found in the search engines today than simply publishing a ton of killer content. It's in Google's best interest to highlight the most relevant search results, and they have even provided a comprehensive blueprint to help you showcase valuable information in front of thousands of motivated borrowers and busy real estate agents.
While it does take a little patience and a some serious sweat equity to develop a high traffic mortgage blog, there are several basic SEO steps and strategies that an originator can take to quickly put their message in the direct path of motivated borrowers and referral partners online.
In this 30 minute power session you'll learn how to incorporate a few free research tools with the mechanics of Search Engine Optimization for the purpose of building a mortgage blogging presence that perpetually grows in traffic and conversions.
Partnering With Social Media Savvy Agents To Meet More Buyers OnlineMark Madsen
This document discusses how loan officers can develop a competitive advantage by partnering with real estate agents and providing them with valuable mortgage content for their websites and blogs. It suggests that agents are hungry for specialized mortgage content to help educate their clients and answer common questions.

1. The document discusses the transition from an information society to a knowledge society, where knowledge plays a central role and is constantly evolving. It emphasizes that a knowledge society is human-centered and focuses on wider social, ethical, and political dimensions.
2. Key aspects of a knowledge society include it being networked, with individuals and groups connected in complex webs. This enables collective intelligence to emerge from interactions between members of a community. Lifelong learning is also important as knowledge cannot be fully acquired at once.
3. Education faces challenges in developing collective intelligence and knowledge through networking. It must also prepare students for lifelong learning and help them master concepts like time and space in digital environments.
F. Questier, (Disruptive) innovations: education and society, lecture for Chinese Summerschool 'European languages, culture and educational systems', Vrije Universiteit Brussel, 07/07/2014
The document discusses how traditional definitions of literacy are outdated and how 21st century literacies require skills such as using technology, collaborating online, and managing multiple streams of information. It analyzes Vygotsky's views on how writing should be taught meaningfully through social interaction, not just focusing on mechanics. The author argues that technology can be used to create a "zone of proximal development" for students to develop 21st century literacies by interacting with others online and gaining experience with technology in a meaningful way rather than just for accessing curriculum.
Collective intelligence refers to shared or group intelligence that emerges from collaboration and competition among individuals. It appears in consensus decision making in bacteria, animals, humans, and computer networks. The concept emerged from writings in the 1970s-1990s and refers to how large groups can converge on the same knowledge. Pierre Lévy introduced the term "collective intelligence" in 1994 to describe how the internet could facilitate rapid communication and broader participation in decision making.
The purpose of this podcast is to discuss how conversational technology can be used to manage knowledge, based on the constructivist theory of learning.
This podcast discusses how conversational technologies like wikis can be used to manage knowledge based on constructivist learning theory. It defines key terms like knowledge, knowledge management, and conversational technologies. It explains that constructivism supports individual knowledge construction and that wikis promote collaboration, allowing knowledge to evolve over time. The podcast concludes that wikis are an excellent tool for facilitating knowledge sharing and construction among employees based on constructivist principles.
Today’s youth lead online lifestyles. They interact in online communities, build relationships, express themselves, stay informed, and find answers to life’s questions all online. Notebook PCs, smartphones, and wireless networks provide access to social networks anywhere, anytime. This generation, the iGeneration, is accustomed to on-demand, individualized service, and is becoming increasingly intolerant of traditional teaching methods where lectures and textbooks assume that “one size fits all” and that learning takes place through individual effort in a classroom. As teachers struggle to satisfy tech-savvy students, we also face pressure to serve increasing numbers of students with fewer resources. Some schools are finding success in dealing with these issues through innovative uses of technologies. Moving curricula online, adopting online pedagogies that emphasize exploration and collaboration, designing engaging activities such as “serious games,” and implementing online learning communities are key to connecting with the iGeneration. This presentation looks at current research in innovative online education technologies, along with the presenter’s own work in the area.
Intellectual Freedom in Libraries : from books to AIMartel D.
Presentation to the CFLA-FCAB conference, May 2th 2018, in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada on intellectual freedom. Panel with Mary Cavanagh, Pilar Martinez, James Turk, Jeff Barber (moderator).
This document is Terry Anderson's CV presented as a Wordle tag cloud. It discusses Anderson's views on distance education, including that education must improve quality and appeal while empowering student control. It advocates boundless access to open educational resources, connections, and learning opportunities using technologies like open courses and open access journals. However, it notes opportunities also exist to waste time or harm privacy, and boundaries may be needed to manage information and guide productive use. Overall, the document emphasizes embracing open, online opportunities to improve and reform education through open scholarship and networks.
1. Contemporary social theories describe how digital technologies have shifted communication away from traditional face-to-face and print media towards functions like social media that follow an escalating logic and erase humanism.
2. The rise of social software, open access, and just-in-time knowledge enabled by the internet challenges traditional structures of gathering and sharing knowledge by allowing information to be more freely distributed and accessed.
3. However, merely distributing information does not necessarily lead to growth of knowledge, as knowledge requires information to be meaningfully modeled and analyzed rather than just believed. The internet allows "downloadable beliefs" but risks knowledge being reduced to beliefs without justification.
The document discusses the need to redefine literacy for the 21st century in a globalized world. It argues that literacy now involves a range of skills including digital, informational, civic, scientific, multicultural and agricultural literacies. It notes that while technology connects people worldwide, literacy education must balance global interconnectedness with local concerns. New literacies bridge local and global issues, and literacy programs will need to integrate and support the development of these varied literacies through expanded programming and partnerships that make skillful use of technology.
Academics should reclaim their voice in society, NOW!Inge de Waard
Slides inspired on a keynote given at EDEN2016 RW in Oldenburg, Germany.
I think we (all of us academics) should start reclaiming our place in society.
This document summarizes and discusses three works related to open information sharing and education: Yochai Benkler's "Wealth of Networks", Charles M. Vest's "Open Content and the Emerging Global Meta-University", and the growth of open courseware initiatives. It outlines the arguments that increased open information sharing can promote both individual freedom and economic development. However, it also notes challenges to open sharing models from issues like quality control, bandwidth costs, intellectual property rights, and the conservative nature of some educational institutions. The document concludes by posing discussion questions from Charles Vest about how the internet may transform higher education on a global scale.
This talk introduced staff at University College Borås to an approach for teaching social media literacies that I was piloting with a group at the IT Technics University, Gothenburg, Sweden.
This document proposes a new Flat Classroom project called "Global Citizenship Matters" that would teach high school students about global citizenship and contemporary global issues. It would take an interdisciplinary approach using concepts like the five stages of becoming a global citizen, 21st century literacies, and global competence. Students would produce outcomes like wiki pages and multimedia projects, and could optionally give talks at a TEDxYouth event. The goal is to help students develop a more global worldview and the skills to understand and address important global issues.
George Roberts discusses the pedagogy of e-learning. He argues that there is a pedagogy of e-learning that is grounded in two broad themes: digital literacy and open academic practice. This pedagogy aims to further openness, acknowledge multiple knowledge cultures, and promote novelty and change through alternative modes of organizing knowledge. However, digital literacy cannot be separated from other educational, social, political and economic developments, and open online academic practice poses a challenge to traditional power structures in higher education.
