Time to cluster

Posted on 4th May 2015 by NomadWarMachine

Posted on 1st May 2015 by NomadWarMachine

So this week Turnitin announced their automated marking service.  My first reaction was to groan and wonder how long it would be before we were asked if we’d be supporting the service.  Then Scott said something that made me think … Continue reading →

While we wait, with bated breath, for Dave to announce our #rhizoradio play, I thought it would be an idea to collate the various promos here. Kevin’s Thinglink Autumm’s Mr X loses his battle with objectivity (image by Angela) My … Continue reading →

This week in #rhizo15 the topic is about how to measure learning. Just for fun, I put some of his blog posts through Turnitin. Two of them came back with 0% similarity, this one came back with 4%. Dave is … Continue reading →

Playing pictures

Posted on 20th April 2015 by NomadWarMachine

Thanks to the amazing Kevin (@dogtrax) I am learning lots of new skills. Over the weekend he played some pictures of #rhizo15 and shared his method.  I’d been meaning to do something about an image that Simon (@sensor) had tweeted over … Continue reading →

Steal and Remix

Posted on 17th April 2015 by NomadWarMachine

So I know Alan objects to us using “stealing” to mean “remixing with the author’s permission”, but it’s something I say quite often, along with things like “can I nick a chip?”, although bizarrely I get mildly irritated when folk … Continue reading →

My perspective on #rhizo15

Posted on 16th April 2015 by NomadWarMachine

There’s been lots of talk about objectives and subjectives in #rhizo15 since Dave set this week’s topic. I played around with words such as subjecting ourselves as subjects and objecting to being treated like objects, but then I gave up … Continue reading →

Not so private after all

Posted on 15th April 2015 by NomadWarMachine
