My Digital Footprint

John Seely Brown

The web has just begun to have an impact on our lives. As fascinated as we are with it today, we’re still seeing it in its early forms… My belief is that not only will the web be as fundamental to society as electrification but that it will be subject to many of the same diffusion and absorption dynamics as that earlier medium.

Working in 'the cloud': workflow practices & personal learning

Efficient workflow practices assist your ability to manage the information explosion that is today's internet. No longer limited by time or device, ‘cloud computing’ enables us to work anywhere, anytime, on any device.  Tools such as Dropbox, Evernote, Google Docs have simplified file storage and access, enabling an efficient workflow that’s independent of your computer hardware.  

This presentation examines the indispensable tools of cloud computing and growth of your  digital literacy skills for both professional tasks and personal learning. Introduce your students to a workflow that will organise their learning and file management.  Share resources in a cloud-based learning network with applications such as Diigo and Delicious for social bookmarking, Symbaloo, Instapaper and most essentially Feedly and other RSS readers.
