19:32:04  dave ->  http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20071127-banning-wikipedia-at-schoo...
19:32:15  Cathy E ->  Good link - John I am going to use it this week
19:33:19  lisaparisi ->  I've been having this conversation with my librarian.
19:33:23  JenniferW ->  Then they are not teaching what PRIMARY SOURCE is -- if they are using Wikipedia as an example!!!  That is the problem
19:33:27  JenniferW ->  not wikipedia
19:33:45  JenM ->  To make a Flip Book: (PC)_ - http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/FlipbookPrinter/ ... and (Mac) See Movie Flipper - http://www.lamarchefamily.net/nakedsoft/
19:33:46  JenniferW ->  isn't a primary source an EYEwitness??
19:33:50  JenniferW ->  to the event??
19:33:56  lisaparisi ->  yes jen...
19:33:59  dave ->  yes... and that is happening in wikipedia
19:34:01  JenniferW ->  isn't wikipedia a secondary source
19:34:04  lisaparisi ->  wikipedia is a secondary source
19:34:15  lisaparisi ->  the question really is..is it a good source
19:34:16  JenniferW ->  unless someone WAS an eyewitness -- RIGHT??
19:34:19  John ->  more on banning wikipedia: http://ryancollins.org/wp/2007/11/29/banning-wikipedia/#comments
19:34:22  dave ->  many different 'primary events' are being recorded in wikipedia
19:34:25  JenniferW ->  I let my kids use Wikipedia
19:34:36  JenniferW ->  but they have to back it up with other documentation too
19:34:40  JenniferW ->  never allow just ONE source
19:34:42  dave ->  of course
19:34:45  dave ->  same as anything else
19:34:48  JenniferW ->  yep
19:34:54  dave ->  yay
19:34:56  dave ->  we agree!
19:34:58  John ->  It depends on how accurate you need the information to be
19:34:59  lisaparisi ->  me too but librarian said, "If they have to confirm information on wikipedia, then why bother using it at all/"
19:35:05  JenniferW ->  I think that teacher wasted paper by posting the wikipedia stuff
19:35:11  lisaparisi ->  Totally missed the point about being an evaluator
19:35:24  lisaparisi ->  Jeff, you are making me feel so good tonight!
19:35:26  JenniferW ->  Dave -- we almost always agree  :)
19:35:35  jeff ->  http://englishteachinglab.blogspot.com/2007/11/english-grammar-practice-...
19:35:35  dave ->  you should confirm ALL sources
19:35:39  dave ->  always
19:35:47  dave ->  no source is 'trustworthy'
19:35:48  jeff ->  http://code.google.com/opensource/ghop/2007-8/
19:35:51  John ->  use my favorite example, cheetahs. Wikipedia says they can run 70-75 miles per hour. Other sources claim 70 MPH, or even 60. But all I need to know is if I can outrun one in my car. And it turns out that I better have a pretty good head start.
19:35:59  jeff ->  http://freeprompter.com/
19:36:12  jeff ->  http://www.celtx.com/overview.html
19:36:20  JenM ->  for all the links we did and didn't cover tonight: http://del.icio.us/edtechtalk/20071202

19:36:59  John ->  http://60secondscience.org/

19:40:26  John ->  http://opencontent.org/blog/archives/397
19:41:43  JenniferW ->  those are not comments -- those are NOVELS...........much too much to read.  Will get a Kindle to read Stephen's comments
19:42:59  Durff ->  lol
19:43:46  JenniferW ->  its much to academic for casual reading......everyone will have a viewpoint -- and it will just get me confused even more
19:45:03  JenniferW ->  I understood the original site --- its the viewpoints that are confusing me  :)
19:45:33  JenniferW ->  I will wait for the Wikipedia article  LOL
19:45:45  John ->  aren't you going to write it?
19:46:04  JenniferW ->  sighs -- it would end up being very short -- Ahhh, HUH??
19:46:21  John ->  That's all you have to do. Someone else will pick up the ball from there.
19:46:46  JenniferW ->  If Jen had not mentioned this site -- I would never have known about it.
19:46:56  John ->  :-)
19:47:10  JenniferW ->  so it can't be a global standard if it is not known  -- right??
19:47:10  JenM ->  http://www.capetowndeclaration.org/faq
19:47:36  JenniferW ->  how could anything then though be a global standard  or universal??
19:48:05  JenniferW ->  now you have me thinking ---- which might not be a good thing  :)

19:49:52  JenniferW ->  yes  :(
19:49:59  JenniferW ->  too academic for us  :)

20:07:27  JenniferW ->  Global Personal Learning??
20:07:29  jeff ->  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gpl
20:07:36  jeff ->  The GNU General Public License (GNU GPL or simply GPL) is a widely used free software license, originally written by Richard Stallman for the GNU project. It is the license used by the Linux kernel. The GPL is the most popular and well-known example of the type of strong copyleft license that requires derived works to be available under the same copyleft. Under this philosophy, the GPL is said to grant the recipients of a computer program the rights of the free software definition and uses copyleft to ensure the freedoms are preserved, even when the work is changed or added to. This is in distinction to permissive free software licences, of which the BSD licenses are the standard examples.
20:07:38  JenniferW ->  ahhh wikipedia -- I should have thought of that
20:07:45  JenniferW ->  thanks
20:08:28  John ->  sorry, jen
20:08:54  JenniferW ->  no worries -- I just blank out on acronyms sometimes
20:11:46  alicemercer ->  Howdy?
20:12:03  susant ->  hi alice
20:12:42  alicemercer ->  What's this on now?
20:13:08  susant ->  openeducation copyright doing away with text books
20:13:10  alicemercer ->  Well, not all would do it.
20:13:32  alicemercer ->  BUT...if 5% of California elementary sci teachers did it.
20:13:40  JenniferW ->  It is the new EdTechTalk Format on Sundays
20:13:47  alicemercer ->  Aha
20:13:50  JenniferW ->  a round table of chat
20:13:55  JenniferW ->  on a certain topic
20:14:37  JenniferW ->  I don't have the link to what started the discussion -- sorry
20:14:47  alicemercer ->  I still haven't gotten a chance to share Intl. Human Rights Day. Either I'm gone, or Doug S. is gone.
20:14:52  jeff ->  http://www.capetowndeclaration.org/
20:14:58  jeff ->  http://halfanhour.blogspot.com/2007/11/criticizing-cape-town-declaration...
20:15:00  alicemercer ->  It's next Monday.
20:15:07  dave ->  contiguity
20:15:12  dave ->  an ETT first
20:15:13  dave ->  nice one
20:16:03  alicemercer ->  Anyone interested or will I need to do an Alice's Restaurant on it?
20:16:46  Gary ->  New textbooks today often come with on-line resources.  This may even increase the price but the resources are often not that good because they need to be constantly updated (e.g. biology textbooks) and the publisher is not willing to do that forever.
20:17:13  dave ->  and it doesn't affect the bottom line att he publisher
20:17:22  dave ->  they need to 'have' an online resource
20:17:30  alicemercer ->  Gary, new social studies from Scott Forsman for elementary are in workbooks that are replaced each year.
20:17:39  alicemercer ->  Kids could write on text,
20:17:40  JenniferW ->  I think if parents started complaining about back issues due to weight of backpacks -- and schools took a stand too -- digital textbooks or online textbooks WOULD become the norm
20:17:50  alicemercer ->  no seperate work books, and printed in color
20:18:03  alicemercer ->  JW, Calif tried to deal with that.
20:18:03  JenniferW ->  and demand that they have current information and NOT outdated textbooks
20:18:16  JenniferW ->  its a huge mindset change
20:18:22  alicemercer ->  The back pack issue, cause there are no lockers in most schools anymore
20:18:31  JenniferW ->  and people are refusing to budge from the comfort zone and the "norm"
20:18:58  JenniferW ->  we could start a REVOLUTION..........I don't mind being a Norma Rae
20:19:05  Gary ->  Text books have a use but they become outdated so quickly.
20:19:07  alicemercer ->  JW, the publisher were going to be required to split books into volumes
20:19:10  alicemercer ->  which is more money
20:19:23  JenniferW ->  it will not go away until people REFUSE to purchase
20:19:28  alicemercer ->  Well, there is a new adoption every 4-5 years here
20:19:31  JenniferW ->  just like gas prices -- sorry
20:19:38  alicemercer ->  State pays for half...
20:19:53  alicemercer ->  JW, I hear ya
20:20:12  JenniferW ->  we might gripe -- but the admin still buys --
20:20:23  JenniferW ->  I hate the weight kids are carrying in the backpacks
20:20:36  alicemercer ->  Well, the stuff at colleges is a laugh. Those readers cost a ton
20:20:44  alicemercer ->  And university is making money.
20:20:50  alicemercer ->  And professors too.
20:21:03  JenniferW ->  its a HORRID circle
20:21:21  alicemercer ->  They complained about publishers, but now the university has gotten into the biz with readers.
20:21:31  susant ->  school in 4 hrs!  bye all
20:21:39  Gary ->  Parents often want textbooks - one reason - so that they can take their kids on a holidy and the teacher can tell them what pages to cover.
20:21:45  JenniferW ->  How will ETT graciously accept the award when they are hosting the awards??
20:21:46  alicemercer ->  Adios Susan
20:21:55  alicemercer ->  Gary, well there is that.
20:22:08  alicemercer ->  I like online resources, but this is the funny thing...
20:22:24  JenniferW ->  This was an EXCELLENT discussion
20:22:29  Gary ->  I am not joking - they actually that question.
20:22:35  alicemercer ->  THe pub is not puttting up stuff. so like my son forgets his vocab and spelling list and has homework
20:22:44  JenniferW ->  ahhh John doesn't want an hourly commitment  :)
20:22:52  alicemercer ->  So I find resources from Matt Needleman and put up by teachers to get teh darn list
20:23:29  alicemercer ->  Shouldn't publisher have that on the internet?
20:23:34  alicemercer ->  And not in PDF format?

20:24:12  JenniferW ->  No Doug??
