10 iPad Apps for Web Curation
Curation vs. Aggregation? Curation is such a necessity these days. The overwhelming wave of information we are exposed to is drowning us in facts and opinion. Not only do we need to be curating the information that we are consuming but we need to be insisting that our students have the skills and necessary tools in which to curate their own world. I have listed a number of capable curation apps that can help to do just that. I tend to use more than one of these and in fact there are days that I would use three or four.

Those things are big, but they’re not the biggest problems you’ll face. In fact, this is one of those situations where money is the least of your troubles. I was chatting with an Edudemic reader this week who wanted to know a few tips and tricks about deploying iPads in his classroom this coming school year. I figured it might be helpful to share the results of this conversation with the rest of the Edudemic readers. How many devices can use one Apple ID? This is a question that pops up all the time. But long story short, it varies. Basically, you should plan on using free apps for the most part as these are easy to install on any device you have, no matter how many Apple IDs you have / need. How do I store all these various devices? There’s more to storing all these devices than just locking them away in a cabinet you already have. What if we lose a device?

Infociments The trap of social media noise If we put a number on it, people will try to make the number go up. Now that everyone is a marketer, many people are looking for a louder megaphone, a chance to talk about their work, their career, their product... and social media looks like the ideal soapbox, a free opportunity to shout to the masses. But first, we're told to make that number go up. Increase the number of fans, friends and followers, so your shouts will be heard. In Corey's words, the conventional, broken wisdom is: Follow a ton of people to get people to follow backFocus on the # of followers, not the interests of followers or your relationship with them.Pump links through the social platform (take your pick, or do them all!) This looks like winning (the numbers are going up!) Leadership (even idea leadership) scares many people, because it requires you to own your words, to do work that matters. Relentlessly focus. Only one of these strategies builds an asset of value.
