I used Google Glass: the future, with monthly updates The frosted-glass doors on the 11th floor of Google’s NYC headquarters part and a woman steps forward to greet me. This is an otherwise normal specimen of humanity. Normal height, slender build; her eyes are bright, inquisitive. What was a total oddity a year ago, and little more than an experiment just 18 months ago is now starting to look like a real product. But as I release from that handshake and study the bizarre device resting on my greeter’s brow, my mind begins to fixate on a single question: who would want to wear this thing in public? Sticky TOC engaged! Finding Glass Finding Glass The Glass project was started "about three years ago" by an engineer named Babak Parviz as part of Google’s X Lab initiative, the lab also responsible for — amongst other things — self-driving cars and neural networks. I was about to beta test Glass myself. "Why are we even working on Glass? Steve goes on. I get it. Maybe, but obviously the Glass team doesn’t want to wait to find out. But seriously.

DATORN i UTBILDNINGEN Text: Monica Esborn Samarbete ger bättre kvalitet i lärandet - om Learning Study på Fenestra Centrum, Göteborg Varje år är det en internationell konferens kring Learning Study. – Det började 2009 med att några matematiklärare från skolan gjorde ett studiebesök på Öjesjö skola i Partille och blev väldigt inspirerade, berättar Srdjan Muratovic, rektor sedan fem år på Fenestra Centrum, en friskola inom Academediakoncernen. Arbetet med Learning Study har inspirerats av de japanska lärarnas systematiska arbete med Lesson Study men inkluderar en grundtanke om lärande utifrån variationsteorin. – Det är första gången konferensen förlades utanför Asien och det är ingen tillfällighet att det blev Göteborg, menar lärarna och utvecklingsledarna på Fenestra Centrum, Lotta Funnemark och Sanna Schoultz. Båda har arbetat länge som handledare för att sprida arbetet på skolan och på senare tid också inom koncernen. – Vi ville börja småskaligt och valde matematiklärarna. Upptäckten!
Un Periodista en el Bolsillo » Bululú: “Nuestro sueño es dar a cada libro su propia voz” El último tramo de este 2012 nos deja el nacimiento de una nueva editorial dedicada a los álbumes ilustrados. Hablamos de Bululú, que nace en A Coruña, y con cuyo responsable hemos hablado para conocer un poco más sobre este proyecto. “Al igual que este actor que en el siglo XVI mudaba su voz conforme al personaje que representaba, nuestro sueño es dar a cada libro su propia voz”, dice esta editorial a la hora de presentarse en las redes sociales. “Porque, así como en Galicia el bululú incorporó a su espectáculo elementos escenográficos, títeres y retablos, Editorial Bululú aprende de esta unión entre lo narrativo y lo visual, apostando por la edición detallista, la renovación de formatos y la singularización y enriquecimiento que la ilustración aporta a la literatura. “El primer libro de Bululú ha sido ‘De profesión inventor’. “Los proyectos para el próximo año son varios pero casi terminados o preparados para terminarlos están dos de los que no puedo dar muchas más pistas.

Pilot FriXion Color-Pencil-Like Erasable Gel Ink Pen - 0.7 mm - 12 Color Set Pilot Japan has broken the barrier between pencils and erasable gel pens! To highlight this fact, their newest FriXion pens have plastic bodies reminiscent of wooden pencils. These erasable gel pens write in vibrant gel colors that are unattainable with colored pencil lead. The pens are so erasable, you'll be amazed. An incredible selection of 24 colors is available. Interestingly enough, the ink in these pens will actually reappear when the temperature reaches below -10 C (under 14 Fahrenheit). Because the ink in this pen is thermo sensitive, we do not advise for it to be left in hot cars, used for mailing, or subjected to a condition that exposes it to a lot of friction.

Norrman utmanar Dropbox I Norge har den nya fildelningstjänsten, Filecloud, funnits sedan början av september och lockat till sig "något hundratal" kunder enligt Alexander Hagerup. Filecloud ska bli helt inriktad mot företag - det ska inte finnas någon konsumentversion av tjänsten. - Vi har sett ett behov av att lansera en fildelningstjänst riktad till företag. Det finns tre huvudsakliga punkter som krävs för att tjänsten ska kunna sägas vara företagsinriktad, anser han: alla data ska vara krypterade vid lagring och överföring, det ska finnas full redundans och it-chefen ska ha kontroll. - Vi har lagt ner ungefär ett år på att utveckla tjänsten. Filecloud skapar en virtuell disk på användarens dator, som bara är nåbar efter inloggning via Fileclouds webbtjänst. - Vi har medvetet prissatt tjänsten aggressivt för att nå en volymförsäljning, säger Göte Dahlbäck, som arbetar med att sälja in företagets tjänster mot svenska partner.
