Seven Habits of Highly Connected People ~ Stephen's Web ~ by Stephen Downes
A riff on Stephen Covey for living, working, and communicating in a highly connected world. Not just the intuitive common-sense advice you see other places--who else would advise you to quit wasting time playing phone tag offline when you could spend that time making real connections online?
-
The idea behind "being yourself" is not that you have some sort of offline life (though you may). Rather, it's a recognition that your online life encompasses the many different facets of your life, and that it is important that these facets are all represented and work together.
In the Wild « Web2.0 in High School
Observations from the beginning of a high school project with Ning, Animoto, and Flickr. Most of the insight is around how Ning facilitates conversations between students and lets the teacher join the discussion. Students are engaged with Ning; they are personalizing their spaces and giving each other constructive feedback.
-
The ability for teachers to understand and add value to the comment ‘back channel’ is a key skill for the ‘connected teacher’. Anyone can swap an writing pad for a blog, there is no value in that. The back channel is the conversation, and is the heartbeat of thought.
-
I can’t think of another way in which teachers can get such immediate access to the ‘thinking’ process that is playing out in front of them.
Dave’s Whiteboard » Blog Archive » Think and do?
Dave Ferguson explains at the end of this post his "three links out" idea. You read a post on one of your regular blogs, then click a link (1). From there, click another link (2). From that place, click a third link (3). This brings you outside your regular circle of reading so you're explosed to new people and ideas. Seems like a good lifelong learning technique.
Weblogg-ed » Local Connections and Global Connections
Will Richardson, about the Educon 2.0 conference. Great quote about technology from Chris Lehmann. One of Will's insights is that although we often talk about technology in terms of global connections, the connections within the local community also benefit from technology integration.
-
As Chris says often, “Technology is not additive; technology is transformative.”
-
Finally, the one real head twister that I got yesterday was during Chris’s own session when he was talking about how his thinking is moving away from the “having kids publish globally to the world” product piece of all of this a “let’s focus on the process of community building and publishing within the walls” approach.

Interesting graphic with an idea for how an intelligent blog conversation tracker would work. I love the idea--now someone out there needs to develop it!
