Defining Inquiry Learning: Part 1 | macfrit7234
The above “Tagul” word cloud is a visual definition of what “Inquiry Learning” looks like through my eyes. I placed it in the shape of a checkmark since I think that is what most of us as students look for to show we are on the right track. However, when you look at some of the words I have used as descriptives being correct or right doesn’t necessarily fall into place. One of the main things I have learned over the course of the last couple of weeks is that inquiry-based learning is about the process maybe even more than the final product. I think as teachers we don’t have much of a problem with #1 and #2, but when it comes to #3 we kind of take a step back. My word cloud conveys the meaning of inquiry learning to be student-centered and student-directed learning that involves the student’s voice supplying the answers. Like this: Like Loading...
10 steps to erase your digital footprint
MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+ are social media websites that can be mined by potential employers for personal information. If privacy settings are not at their highest, this could mean viewers can access pictures, posts and status updates best kept within your private life. One thing to remember is that the Web often forgets about context -- and so Tweets can be misconstrued, events from years ago can end up hampering your prospects, and your profile may not show you to be the type of person a company would want to hire. In relation to accounts you actively use, check your privacy settings. For Facebook, head over to account settings through the top-right button, and then select 'privacy' from the menu on the left. You can then decide who can see what information is posted -- and whether you can be looked up based on your email address, phone number or search engines.

The Talking Billboard: Introduction to Personalized Digital Advertising | Mobile Devices Become Personal Media and Sharing Devices
This introduction to Personalized Digital Advertising: How Data and Technology Are Transforming How We Market examines the rationale, opportunity, process, and technology involved in personalizing advertising. This chapter is from the book In the 2002 movie Minority Report, Tom Cruise walks into a mall and is greeted by “live” billboards that address him by name and show him outfits he will likely be interested in. The billboards do it by scanning his retina. (Turns out it’s someone else’s retina, but you’ll have to watch the movie to know why.) In many ways, as advertising has gone from traditional media to new media, it has not changed very much. Along came newspapers, magazines, and TV—first one channel in black and white and then three channels and then cable with hundreds of channels. Marketers repeated the same formula used in advertising. For some time, pundits have predicted that advertising will become much more personalized and relevant.
