  • "Participatory, Continuous, Connected" | Top Trends from the Library 2.014 Conference. Participatory, hyperlinked library services; DIY and maker movements; emerging technology in academic and research libraries; Google Glass—our Library 2.014 conference covered a broad range of topics and these were among the most notable. Join this free Library Journal webcast covering the highlights of each one and offering key takeaways. Michael Stephens who will moderate a lively and insightful discussion with our panel of distinguished experts, starting himself by discussing participatory, hyperlinked library services in a connected world of “continuous computing.” Susan Hildreth will reflect on how the DIY and maker movements—particularly as they relate to STEM education (with badges to certify skill development)—place libraries as central learning hubs for their communities. Samantha Adams Becker taught the first online course ever to take place in Facebook. She will explore emerging technology uptake—especially digital communication formats—in various education sectors including academic and research libraries. Ayyoub Ajmi will describe experiences using Google Glass at the UMKC School of Law Library—what they did with it, what they couldn’t do, and what’s for the future. Register here.

Conversations

Education Revolution Google+ Community

  • Against College. Conversations around the real value of the college degree are becoming more critical, and the volume is becoming louder for those who are challenging the traditional model of higher education. This article looks at UnSchool San Francisco, where students focus on applied practice and experiences that translate into tangible employment qualifications. At UnCollege, students spend three months on "campus," a house in the Mission District of San Francisco, refining their interests and learning how to sell themselves. As part of the program, students also travel abroad, create a project to show potential employers and intern with a company related to their future careers. Maybe this isn't the model for every learner, but it provides a compelling and alternative narrative to the story that's been told for the last several decades.
  • Why You're An Expert (Or Not). This recent article by Sara Briggs of InformEd, explores the cognitive science behind exceptionally skilled learners and practioners of various fields. The article suggests that the difference between novices and experts in a wide variety of fields can be attributed to a single trait, the trait that prompts great writers to consider their readers: the ability to step outside of yourself. The article reviews a variety of subjects for expert versus novice cognitive patterns and learner attitudes. How can we train our brains to think differently about subjects that we struggle with? How can we help learners shift their thinking and take their learning to the expert level? Read more.
  • More About Google Apps For Education (GAFE). Classroom educator, Matt Miller, shares 10 ways to incorporate GAFE in your classroom. His suggestions are framed around teacher practices that introduce students to new skills, tools, and learning communities. What could you add to this list? Share your comments with Matt here.
