Raise your hand if you’re a rock star

Catching up on the aggregator a bit today, and found something a little ironic while reading through David Warlick’s blog. First I read about his experience meeting Consuelo Molina. 
I looked back — at a young man with a hulking video camera resting on his shoulder, and that customary tremor of terror […]

Regaining what I miss from OSX - Magnification

I miss my Mac.  Let me get that out of the way.  There are plenty of reasons why I like Windows too, and wouldn’t dream of trying to say that one OS is better than another, but there are certain little features built into OSX that I miss quite a bit.  Slowly but surely, I’m […]

WOMMA: Getting a little marketing experience

Right now I’m at WOMMA, a Word of Mouth conference. We don’t really advertise the Discovery Educator Network. I mean, we might wind up doing a few sponsorships and passing out some branded items, but for the most part we don’t advertise and nor do we really need to. The reason is that DEN isn’t […]

Wikipedia vs. Britannica at the OK Corral

Via Will Richardson:
When I’ve recommended that students use Wikipedia as a resource, I’ve always told them that they can’t trust what they’re reading 100% and that they should always verify their facts with a second source. But do people do the same with the Encyclopedia Britannica?
