If you are interested in the individual differences of our activity level in PLENK2010, please read this. I’ll give you a rough estimate on this. I began to look at the participants list: who had logged in during last days and then I took a glimpse of the forum posts behind the name, how many pages they had written.
I found that Chris Jobling had written on 43 pages ( our main reflector?) And after him two Susan: Susan O’Grady 35 pages and Susan Grigor 23 pages (emotional leaders?). Ken Anderson had a lot of critical questions, 20 pages. Vilimaka Foliaki and Vahid Masrour, both 12 pages. Linn Gustavsson 11 pages Eduardo Peirano, Rita Kop, George Siemens and me 10 pages each. Stephen Downes, Jim Stauffer, Eva Birger, Ken Masters 9 pages each. Chris Saeger and Patricio Bustamante 8 pages – and so on.
These are only numbers (quantity). No sense in this, just looking – and tell this to you if anyone is interested and wants to analyze further? The Shadow Scholar - The Chronicle Review. Personal Learning Environments, Networks, and Knowledge Participation Survey. PLE Online Courses. EtherPad: GLKpQUPgvd. Sensemaking. In information science the term is most often written as "sense-making. " In both cases, the concept has been used to bring together insights drawn from philosophy, sociology, and cognitive science (especially social psychology).
Sensemaking research is therefore often presented as an interdisciplinary research programme. Sensemaking and information systems[edit] Dervin (1983, 1992, 1996) has investigated individual sensemaking, developing theories underlying the "cognitive gap" that individuals experience when attempting to make sense of observed data. After the seminal paper on sensemaking in the Human-Computer interaction field in 1993,[1] there was a great deal of activity around the understanding of how to design interactive systems for sensemaking. Klein et al. (2006b) have presented a theory of sensemaking as a set of processes that is initiated when an individual or organization recognizes the inadequacy of their current understanding of events.

This week I am in week five of an online course called PLENK, which I'm offering with three colleagues in the research community here in Canada. As we reach the midpoint of the course, enrollment has just passed 1500 student mark. The discussions are reasonably active, we're aggregating 227 student blogs, 1340 of them are reading the daily newsletter, and the tweet count has just passed 1701.
We're not the first people in the world to offer an online course, of course. Nor is this the largest online course ever offered -- it doesn't even match our own record of 2200 participants, which we reached in 2008 with Connectivism and Connective Knowledge, much less the other online courses that have been offered over the years. PLENK -- Personal Learning Environments, Networks and Knowledge -- is about an emerging online learning technology called the personal learning environment, or PLE.
The PLENK course is just the latest activity our small part of this wider community has undertaken. Fresh and Crispy: Digital literacy, passion and changing educational paradigms. Social networks offer free access to the beating pulse of the nation | John Naughton | Technology | The Observer. One of the few comical aspects of the spending review is the frantic attempts by all concerned to predict how the victims of Osborne's axe will respond. The major newspaper groups and the Tory party will of course be deploying the usual – expensive – steam-age tools: opinion polls and focus groups.
The cash-strapped Labour and Liberal Democrat parties may have to resort to cheaper techniques – inspecting the entrails of slaughtered goats, perhaps. In the interests of levelling the playing field, therefore, this column offers them a better idea: intelligent data-mining on Twitter. It's taken a while for the penny to drop, but finally the world is waking up to the fact that the phenomenon of social networking might actually tell us useful things about what's happening out there in the world beyond the Washington Beltway and the Westminster village. Not only that, but the resulting data might even be useful for predicting what's likely to happen.
