Technology and Education | Box of Tricks Feel, Act, Make sense • Sen.se Sprachlich Diese Seiten sind die Nachfolgeversion der “gelben Site“, auf der vor allem Linklisten zu so unterschiedlichen Themen wie Deutsch als Fremdsprache, Computerlinguistik, Literaturzusammenfassungen, Geschichtsdidaktik und Jugendarbeit versammelt waren. Im Moment (Sommer 2012) bin ich immer noch dabei, ausgewählte Inhalte von der alten Seite in dieses Projekt zu übernehmen bzw. zu überarbeiten. Was in welcher Form übernommen wird und was überhaupt nicht, ist im Moment noch nicht klar. Die alte Einstiegsseite mit den alten Inhalten ist aber immer noch erreichbar. Schon relativ weit fortgeschritten sind die Bereiche Das DaF-Blog ist natürlich auch immer noch in Betrieb . Anmerkungen:

eBook Details : Palgrave Connect Every object tells a story. Depending on just how ‘talkative’ a thing is, or how it relates to other objects we know, it might tell us about its origins, design, consistency, uses, or monetary value. Some objects are deemed more significant (and expensive) than others – because they are old or rare, used to belong to an important person, or are emblematic of a nation’s culture and history (Leder Mackley et al., 2010). Yet, there are also idiosyncratic, affective stories behind physical objects’ places in ordinary people’s homes and hearts. This is because some objects hold and evoke personal memories. They remind us of people, places, times and feelings, of who we are, who we used to be, and who we aspire to become (Miller, 2008). This chapter is part of the interdisciplinary pan-UK research project TOTeM (Tales of Things and Electronic Memory).

dafdiesunddas | Deutsch lehren, lernen und weiterkommen WHICH 50 : Tumblr is different — and its business model can celebrate this difference. Tumblr’s audience is young, affluent, engaged — and different. It is also worth a billion dollars to Yahoo!, assuming the company can translate its community’s enthusiasm into commerce at scale. Much has been made of Tumblr’s relatively nascent advertising business and too much has probably been made of all that adult content; after all, it’s not like Google, YouTube, Pinterest and Twitter are TSFW. What is missing from the current analysis is the opportunity for Tumblr — which is still only an adolescent relative to other social networks — to build an ecosystem based on transactional commerce . (Source: A Tumblr Snapshot Source: globalwebindex.net. There are no markets around the world where Tumblr’s active user base exceeds ten per cent of the Internet population, for instance. So the opportunity is there for the taking, and the first movers are already evolving into their second iterations. He told Which-50 “We learned a massive amount from our first evolution of the platform.”

Web 2.0 for the Under 13s crowd Jul 05 As I lamented in my last post, many of the fabulous Web tools out there are restricted to users 13 and over. This limits what Elementary/Primary schools students can access online to create content to collaborate. To save others at school some time, then, I have compiled a list of popular/well known Web tools that can and can’t be used by children under 13 – 1), so we are legally covered in what we are allowing our students to use and 2), so they know what is available. The difficulty with some sites’ policies is that they don’t all state emphatically that Under 13s are not allowed. Even though I complained in my last post about restrictions, you can see from this chart that there are still plenty of tools available for the Under 13s. Contact sites if you are unclear what their policies are saying. Would love to hear from others about other tools I have not listed above that are accessible to the under 13s.

Ken Sakamura Bio Ken Sakamura is Professor of Information Science at the University of Tokyo, where he also serves as the Executive Director of the university's newly established Digital Museum. He's most famous as the originator, chief architect, and principle driving force behind the TRON Project. But in addition, he's an architect of buildings, a designer of computerized gadgets that defy the imagination, a consultant for technology projects in countries around the globe--which is not to mention Japan--and he's an author and editor of numerous computer-related books and magazines. Professor Sakamura was born in Tokyo on July 25, 1951, which means he reached young adulthood just as Japan's "electronics boom" and "calculator wars" were starting to take place. Hopelessly fascinated by electronics, after graduating from high school, he enrolled in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Keio University from which he ultimately received his Ph.D. in 1979.

Angenehm Deutsch | Deutsch lernen und lehren Das Gedicht im Juli Hoffmann von FallerslebenWie freu’ ich mich der Sommerwonne! Wie freu’ ich mich der Sommerwonne, Des frischen Grüns in Feld und Wald, Wenn’s lebt und webt im Glanz der Sonne Und wenn’s von allen Zweigen schallt! Ich möchte jedes Blümchen fragen: Hast du nicht einen Gruß für mich? Die Welt ist mein, ich fühl es wieder: Wer wollte sich nicht ihrer freu’n, Wenn er durch frohe Frühlingslieder Sich seine Jugend kann erneu’n? Kein Sehnen zieht mich in die Ferne, Kein Hoffen lohnet mich mit Schmerz; Da wo ich bin, da bin ich gerne, Denn meine Heimat ist mein Herz. Das Juni – Gedicht August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben Beim Regen Liebe Sonne, scheine wieder, Schein’ die düstern Wolken nieder! Trockne ab auf allen Wegen Überall den alten Regen! Das Mai – Gedicht Ludwig Heinrich Christoph Hölty Frühlingslied Die Luft ist blau, das Tal ist grün, die kleinen Maienglocken blühn und Schlüsselblumen drunter; der Wiesengrund ist schon so bunt und malt sich täglich bunter. Erich Kästner
