WebTurbine Impacts Learning

WebTurbine Impacts Learning
Just a quick glimpse from NASA into the future: "Educators and students can become Web publishers of information that includes live, always-changing content using the limited resources available to them. Sharing this content amongst themselves, remote peers at other schools and/or becoming directly involved with NASA and its partners becomes part of the daily curriculum. The student becomes a contributor and partner, and, in doing so, gains the perspective and motivation to become an active participant in the quest for knowledge." That's it. More...

Offering a more progressive definition of freedom

Offering a more progressive definition of freedom
Jason Kottke, kottke.org, 2018/08/30
A little off-topic but I like this. "Clean drinking water is freedom. Good public education is freedom. Universal healthcare is freedom. Fair wages are freedom. Policing by consent is freedom. Gun control is freedom. Fighting climate change is freedom. A non-punitive criminal justice system is freedom. Affirmative action is freedom. Decriminalizing poverty is freedom. Easy & secure voting is freedom. This is an idea of freedom I can get behind." More...

Wil Wheaton has quit the tire-fire we call Twitter and now, because of an abusive reception, he has quite Mastodon as well and has sworn of social media altogether. Leo Laporte of TWiT has also signed off Twitter. I think Wheaton sums up the problem nicely. More...
