Do Open Academic Libraries Need Academic Librarians I started the day by doing a quick dive into an open course on education futures. Open courses are nothing new. MIT began offering them some time ago, and a number of institutions have followed suit. This one caught my attention because it was being offered by two education gurus in a totally independent setting. What about an open academic library?

The open academic library at CSU, LA is more about, as one student is quoted in the article, “resistance” to an administrative decision to close early.

Vuvuzela de gauche? Coupe du Monde 14/06/2010 à 11h22 - mis à jour le 14/06/2010 à 13h17 | vues | réactions Inconnue jusque là, sauf en Afrique du Sud, la vuvuzela est depuis trois jours mondialement célèbre. Une seule question se pose dorénavant : est-elle de gauche ? (Source: Goalcom) La question pourrait sembler anecdotique. Déjà il convient de noter que ce sont des journaux comme Le Parisien qui ont lancé l'offensive anti vuvuzela. Et puis, il y a aussi toutes ces initiatives sur le Net comme la pétition pour leur interdiction. Mais, n'est pas balayer un peu vite l'africanité de cette Coupe ? Vous l'aurez donc compris aisément la vuvuzela est de gauche. Toutefois, attention à ce que votre générosité ne vous fasse commettre une regrettable erreur. Heureusement, j'ai pensé à vous ! Et vous, pensez-vous que le bruit a une orientation politique ? (Si vous êtes sages, tout à l'heure, je vous expliquerai en quoi le saucisson est de droite). (1) Je blague, bien sûr.

Top 5 Social Media Myths Debunked As with any new technology, social media has spawned its share of misconceptions and myths that keep people from interacting. It’s time to debunk the big myths that are keeping business owners and marketers on the social media sidelines. Myth #1: My Customers Aren’t on Social Media Wow, if I had a dollar for every time I heard this one…. Seriously, this myth keeps more businesspeople from interacting with potential customers through social media than any of the others. The fun part is all you need is a little data to convince people that their target customers are indeed on social networks. For instance, 80% of female Internet users have become fans of a product or brand on a social network site and 72% said they learned about a new product through social media. Social networking is a true cultural phenomenon, and there is no demographic that isn’t represented substantially on one or more sites. Myth #2: I Can’t Measure the Impact of Social Media on My Business

Penalty Kicks: The Science Behind Shootouts After 120 grueling minutes, the score remained 0-0. Players were lying on the ground, exhausted. The match, however, was not over. Draws no longer exist. Paraguay and Japan had to square off in the first penalty shootout of the 2010 World Cup. ESPN's "Sport Science" released a clip analyzing penalty kicks just 11 days ago. According to Sport Science's John Brenkus, goalies correctly predict the shooter's direction 57% of the time. According to Brenkus, the annual rate of a goalie stopping a penalty kick is 22%.

World Cup: Where to Watch in Palo Alto/Stanford (San Francisco P My hometown of Palo Alto, California is a melting pot of cultures, and as international community as you are likely to find anywhere in the world. Home to Stanford University, Palo Alto is an upscale mecca for students, entrepreneurs, and regular folks alike. When the World Cup takes center stage every four years, Palo Altans and our neighbors from around the world gather to celebrate our national allegiances, and commiserate our losses to soccer powerhouses like Germany, Brazil and...Ghana? This time around, I was determined to find a way to celebrate the event with other people, so I investigated where there were gatherings to watch the games being held in South Africa. Here are some of the places I've watched these past few weeks, in case you're looking to watch the elimination games in Palo Alto or Stanford: Pasta?

Faculty Burnout Has Both External and Internal Sources, Scholar Says - Faculty By Audrey Williams June Washington Janie Crosmer, who recently earned a Ph.D. in health management at Texas Woman's University, wanted to know more about what causes faculty burnout. So as part of her dissertation, she studied 411 full-time professors nationwide to find out. About half were tenured, 63 percent were female, and the average age of the respondents was 50. Ms. Q. A. Q. A. Q. A. Q. A. Q. A. Q. A. Q. A. VINE: German kid screams, will haunt your dreams Germany struggled with Algeria for quite a while, then suddenly decided to start playing and finished them off. Did they get paid to take a dive (or many, many dives since we’re talking about the World Cup)? Were they going for some bizarre “screw around with poor unfortunate country and still beat them” X-Box achievement? Did they get too exciting over the thought of getting to take it to France again? But there’s one thing you hadn’t considered yet: their secret weapon. No, we don’t mean the Nazis (ethnic cleansing isn’t exactly what we would call “humor”). We mean a little boy. And screamed so loud you could hear it from space: (Vine via @SBNationGIF) “YOU’LL NEVER TAKE MEIN COOOKIEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!”” Okay so that may have been exaggerated, slightly.
