We’re Taking an Open Direction with Web Communities: Are You In? ~ Chris Pirillo
-
I don’t want a social network, I want a socially *RELEVANT* network (both on-site and beyond). I don’t want a community platform, I want a participation platform where members are rewarded and ranked appropriately. I don’t want a place where people can just blog, because I’m going well beyond the blog. It’s not just about hosting videos, audio files, or any piece of random media – it’s the discovery mechanisms between them that make them more relevant.

Google Wave Use Cases: Education
- – post by ankitraghav
- r searching some public ‘waves,’ we came across an educational wave. Entitled ‘Wave in Class,’ this wave was started by Loren Baum (a self-described “collaborative learning enthusiast” and graduate student at Ben Gurion University) and Sam Boland (a Politics student and “Tech Enthusiast” at Occidental College, Los Angeles).

About 18 months from now a relatively mature Google Wave, Google Voice, and iPhone 4G, hereby dubbed “i4GWaVe“, will crash on the shores of corporate America unleashing a new paradigm of business energy with amazing force. The impact of these three technologies converging in your shirt pocket will change much about how we communicate and collaborate with peers, colleagues, and partners. But this particular convergence will also enable new types of communications processes to become part of every-day scenarios.

The Internet has challenged our desire for control from the beginning and that is a good thing. As we move forward with new social networking / knowledge building tools, we will trip over the problem of misguided and irresponsible use. But as Wesley Fryer (www.speedofcreativity.org) has said, “We have to let kids into the pool if we want them to learn to swim”.

Why do fewer people vote when there is a Wal-Mart nearby?
When two economists, Stephan Goetz and Anil Rupasingha, carried out a detailed study in the US of the links between Wal-Mart and “social capital” – the community cohesion and mutual support that makes neighbourhoods work – they were astonished to find that the presence of a Wal-Mart nearby brought the voting turn-out down.
Other measures of social capital went down too. They found that communities that gained a Wal-Mart during the decade had fewer local charities and local associations such as churches, campaign and business groups per capita than those that did not. But why?
It seems that by crushing smaller businesses and losing the local knowledge and relationships they embody, the supermarket economic model – used by its UK subsidiary Asda, and widely copied by rivals such as Tesco – cuts the threads that hold an engaged community together. Big supermarkets, often lured by grants into regeneration areas, have not acted as useful anchors but instead have competed, often unfairly, with the surrounding businesses – sucking money out of the local economy.
Governments have mistaken being “big business-friendly” with being pro-enterprise. And supermarkets have not only killed the rich diversity of producers, suppliers and shops that are essential to a resilient economy, they are also dissolving the glue that holds communities together.

- Gapminder es una herramienta
fascinante que te permite, por decirlo de algún modo, darle al play del
desarrollo humano de los últimos tiempos. Podéis
pasaros horas combinando datos y jugando con la barra del tiempo para
comparar distintos datos macroeconómicos y sociales de muchos países.
Desde la mortalidad infantil y la esperanza de vida, hasta el uso del
móvil a lo largo de los últimos 30 años.
Gapminder pone a disposición pública datos muy costosos.
Este

a “falsification” test
-
For example, he asked, what effect do 5th grade teachers have on their students’ test scores in 3rd and 4th grades?
-
Because it’s impossible for even the best teachers to have an impact on students’ previous learning, Mr. Rothstein reasons, there should be no impact.
-
value-added calculations are based on the assumption that students’ classroom assignments are random,
-
teachers’ long-run effects on individual students and finds that they tend to decay or fade out after the first year.
-
The study also found, as Mr. Rothstein did, that the teacher effects faded in their students’ performance from one year to the next, which may be the more important issue, according to Mr. Staiger.
“When calculating the potential value of shifting the teacher-effectiveness distribution, we and others have typically assumed that the effects of a strong teacher persist in the children they teach,” write Mr. Staiger and Mr. Kane, who is the faculty director of the Seattle-based Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s project on policy innovation.
