My Twittering (2009-04-26)

  • A presentation on seductive interaction that I’d like to see, live: http://ping.fm/JzHcT
  • In Vancouver? I’m presenting tonight at 7pm, on core competencies and ideation-design. Details at http://ping.fm/SVNGp
  • I want to try it: Easy Meet for mobile devices/phones lets users view & mark up each other’s PPT slides. http://ping.fm/3uyav
  • Cute & funny, but this “PC in biohazard suit” ad is ill timed, given recent coverage of a Mac virus! And I like my PC. http://ping.fm/L4D3F
  • An overseeable review of 16 UI prototyping tools for web sites: http://ping.fm/rS28q
  • If Twitter is for high school girls, who says they aren’t supposed to write? In Defence of Twitter: http://bit.ly/qu7cX Thanks, @breebop
  • Eye candy” article a good read (illustr.) about aesthetics, usability, and user experience. Like it! http://ping.fm/ccKJo
  • In an online course, students expect the instructor’s daily presence, whereas in face-to-face courses, once a week suffices.
  • Just did a spontaneous demo of #Jing for the other instructors. It’s the easiest way to quickly show & tell! http://bit.ly/xfu2l @betsyweber
  • Online distance education has communicat’n barriers. So integrate Skype into course-delivery ware. Hey, #WebCT, the API: http://bit.ly/ipqZN
  • In the absence of courseware that lets me rate student comments, I must use a rubric (marking grid) to track student participation by hand.
  • Does “student participation” in an online course mean “involvement in discussion”? Or something else?
  • It takes instructors time to assess the quality of online student discussion. Reward students for the number of posts? This choice sucks.
  • I think I’ll add a graded discussion component to weekly assignments: “Comment on the reading; respond to the comment of another student.”
  • RT In Vancouver? Next VanUE event: Designing for the Community Experience… Tues, May 26, 2009 - http://www.vanue.com - @bskelton
