his site is dedicated to the thought that something as simple as fun is the easiest way to change people’s behaviour for the better. Be it for yourself, for the environment, or for something entirely different, the only thing that matters is that it’s change for the better.
If “parenthetical” culture is dominated by the original, individual, autonomous, stable and canonical composition, then pre-parenthetical culture is rather dominated by the opposites of these qualities: the re-creative, collective, con-textual, unstable, traditional performance, which … may be another way of formulating the “sampling, remixing, borowing, reshaping, appropriating and recontextualizing” characteristic of “post-parenthetic”, digital internet culture. (Tom Pettitt)
believe all teachers and students should have digital portfolios. Recently, I've discovered a freemium site called WIX.com that allows one to produce a creative, professional-looking web portfolio. It's Flash-based and completely customizable. VIEW MINE HERE: www.amyburvall.com
I presented at Hawaii Association for Independent Schools "Schools of the Future" conference in Sept. 2011. The topic was e-portfolios, though I discuss other things like positive digital footprints and personal branding.

After eight years in Duke's central administration, I was excited to take the methods we had gleaned from the iPod experiment back into the classroom. I decided to offer a new course called "This Is Your Brain on the Internet," a title that pays homage to Daniel J. Levitin's inspiring book This Is Your Brain on Music (Dutton, 2006)
If the idea of a university is to create and make public knowledge about the human condition and about the world we live in through teaching and research with no strings attached (think: if there are strings attached, then by definition that's not research but propaganda creation) then the present is not a university system. This is not to say that excellent research and teaching are not going on at present, they clearly are, but whereas that used to be the raison d'?tre of universities, now it is something that happens within institutions that have a different agenda and that are structured to serve that agenda.
This brings me to the one-hour format. Conference talks, lectures in universities, periods in schools and the ‘one-hour’ of e-learning pricing model, all of these fall foul of the deep addiction to the ‘hour of learning’ delivered as a lecture.
The Australian Taxation Office has said that the iPad, and equivalent e-readers or tablets, are deemed to be equivalent to a laptop and it will attract a 50 per cent education rebate. This will make iPads popular with schools.
The Moodle.org Open Community Hub contains courses from all over the world.
