Mashups: The new breed of Web app on 2007-09-01

Like these "bastard pop" songs, a mashup is an unusual or innovative composition
of content (often from unrelated data sources), made for human (rather than
computerized) consumption.

Innovate - Reschooling Society and the Promise of ee-Learning: An Interview with Steve Eskow on 2007-09-01

"First-hand knowledge is the ultimate basis of intellectual life. To a large
extent book-learning conveys second-hand information, and as such can never rise
to the importance of immediate practice. Our goal is to see the immediate events
of our lives as instances of our general ideas" (1929, 61).

Schachter's original focus on the individual user has never wavered, and it
remains essential to the way del.icio.us works.

Technology Review: TR35 on 2007-08-30
-
Del.icio.us now has more than 300,000 registered users, and it generates as much
traffic in a single day as it did in its entire first year.
-
Schachter is confronting the fact that the vast majority of people on the Web
don't tag at all--and probably have never even heard of tagging. So how does he
expand his sites audience? "You have to solve a problem that people actually
have," Schachter says. "But it's not always a problem that they know they have,
so that's tricky." He remains more focused on the site's value to the individual
than on its folksonomic aspects, because to him, helping individuals store and
recall information is far more important than classifying the Web. And it may
well be individual value that's most likely to keep del.icio.us growing.

-
he's also helped create a rather remarkable social memory system, in which all
of us are able to find more and better information than we would on our own. As
Schachter puts it, "The one who stashes a page doesn't have to be the one who
ends up recalling it. Del.icio.us is a storer of one's own attention. But it
also means you can share it with others." And that ability will only become more
valuable over time. "The better you understand the world, the better you'll do,"
Schachter says. "I really think that in the end, more understanding wins."

"You bookmark for one of two reasons: either you think you're going to need that
page again somewhere down the road, or you don't have time to read it now, but
you want to read it later," Schachter says. "The challenge is, once you've got
all these bookmarks, how do you manage them? The problem we're really dealing
with is memory and recall, and using technology to make your memory more
scalable."
-
Schachter deliberately avoided imposing any rules about how people could use
tags.

It was hard to get the first person to buy a fax machine, because a fax machine
is useless if you're the only one who has one. But even for the first person to
use del.icio.us--Schachter--it worked.

这是一个非常棒的幻象。在看下面的文字前,你可以先去看看。我在此要表述的是,这个幻象不但显现出我们的感知如何从一种情况转换到另外一种情况,而且表明
了我们可以训练我们自己,在这不同的感知间转换(首先我按第一种方式看,然后用第二种方式,接着我不得不尽力回到第一种方式上,在我训练自己再次按照那样
的方式去看时,阴影形成)。

Michael Coghlan发来
Tony
Buzan的
演讲短片。这个短片是在讨论围绕着创造力如何教孩子们学习。我非常赞同他的观点。我一生都保持创造性,我也看来了在教育过程中它是怎样被视作
“不正常
”并 且得不鼓励的。但是如
Buzan所说:
“‘正常
’是非自然的
…… 我们在教授非创造力。
”很好的短片,在

“创造力

在美国9岁到17岁之间96%的的青少年登陆互联网使用社会化网络技术,诸如聊天,短讯息,写Blog或者访问象Facebook和MySpace这样

Dave Pollard创建了他自己的PLE图表(尽管他没这么标识),并且考虑了学习和社交网络的整合。象McLuhan一样,他将交流工具描述成我们身体感觉
的延伸,然后,观察到我们更愿意拥有而不是分享这样身体上的延展。“所以,我们希望将工作中获得的知识在自己的空间里以对自己有效的方式来进行组织,这一
现象也许不显得那么令人惊讶了。我们讨厌被动地收到那些我们不需要也没有要求过的信息,无论它们是通过电邮、邮寄或者电话的方式发送来的。”有趣的是,他
说博客和维基都不能很好地服务于这一需求(我想,这大概是许多OLDaily读者得要通过电邮或RSS订阅才看到这帖子的原因吧。)

IBM(中国)的经理人们创新出了既节省时间,又能达到很好效果的学习方式—“Mailcast”E-mail
学习方式。即设计一个课程,通过电子邮件的形式传播给各地的经理人。每次
教学邮件都设计了生动的形象、丰富的表情,以蓝色为主调(这是IBM的老传统),还有悦耳的声音。这些都使学习成为一个愉快的经历。

这就是IBM倡导的“反向导师制”(ReverseMentoring),“反向导师制”是让新人给老人做导师。
-
反向导师制度的另外一个好处是,新老IBMer之间的工作关系和效率都有了大幅度的提升,“80后”的问题也不再那么让管理者们头痛不已了。IBM全球主管学习与发展的副总裁TedHoff说:“导师制的核心是一个双向关系。这种关系可以使人们能够分享经验和互相学习,使他们能够在一个更高的层次上思考。以我的经验,无论是从工作上还是从个人生活上,我都从自己‘师徒’关系中受益匪浅。”

The first force is a steady increase in the pace of business and information
creation, which has led to a shift in work, especially knowledge work, and an
evolution in information needs.
-
The second driver affecting workplace learning is the advent of Web 2.0.
-
-
The key components to Web 2.0 are the ease of using the tools and the
collaboration/social interaction that naturally results. One of the interesting
results from Web 2.0 is something called collective intelligence. For example,
consider how Amazon's user ratings and comments influence buyer behavior. If you
expand this notion to other forms of content, the potential to leverage
information from peers and experts is exponential. More important, value is
amplified by the fact that an increasing number of people are actively
connecting to each other using the web, enabling users to find and gather
information from peers and experts. This has a significant implication for
knowledge workers.
-
Over the coming years, it will be increasingly rare to buy software for
installation on a local machine. Instead almost all software will be delivered
as a service through the web, and these same applications will often provide
components that can be used seamlessly in other applications.
-
The best example of this is the many mash-ups of Google Maps, which allow users
to view real estate listings, sales prospects, and other data points on a map.
-
The reality is that the impact of E-Learning 2.0 tools on day-to-day work and
personal learning is difficult to understand until they’ve been experience by an
individual.
-
Beyond this kind of support for personal and group informal learning, E-Learning
2.0 is making an impact in formal learning settings, and they are particularly
useful for collaborative formal learning. For example, wikis can be used as part
of group projects; blogs can be used to submit written work and offer the
opportunity for peers to provide feedback in a collaborative learning setting;
and social bookmarking tools can be used as part of collaborative research.
Again, the ease-of-use and collaborative nature of these tools make them a
natural fit for learning.
-
For that reason, learning is not always accessed via the LMS, but pushed to the
learner through email or accessed via links on an organization's intranet.
-
exist simultaneously, so will E-Learning 1.0, E-Learning 1.3, and E-Learning
2.0.
-
E-Learning 1.0 solutions are going to continue to be used for content in which
there is a relatively large audience with common, identifiable needs who have
relatively the same level of knowledge around the subject matter. E-Learning 1.0
also will be used when there are compliance issues and high cost-of-errors or
when significant up-front training makes sense. E-Learning 1.3 will be used for
quick-hit learning opportunities or basic information transfer around new
products, procedures, systems, and so forth. E-Learning 2.0 makes sense when
there are widely different learning needs. E-Learning 2.0 also is a solid option
when content cannot be cost effectively identified up-front because there is too
much information or specific learning needs are unknown and will be generated as
part of work. Considering these descriptions, it should be clear that for most
workplace learning professionals, the vast majority of their personal learning
needs fall into the realm of what E-Learning 2.0 aims to address. It should also be clear that most employees today are in the
same situation.
-
As a starting point, workplace learning professionals need to get smart on the
tools and begin the skill building process. In other words, you need to spend
time to learn how to learn.
