Teachers Pay Teachers is an ecommerce startup where teachers peddle their lesson plans to other teachers. 
Mobile devices provide new opportunities to support student learning in addition to their more common entertainment uses of watching video or listening to music.The NGLC-funded Mobile-Enhanced Inquiry-Based Learning project is a cooperative effort between faculty members at multiple institutions of higher learning aimed at determining how to effectively incorporate mobile devices into the curriculum.Research into effective use of media resources provided on mobile devices continues, especially in science lab environments, with results expected to guide future efforts. 
In terms of intellectual fulfillment, creativity, networking, impact, productivity, and overall benefit to my scholarly life, blogging wins hands down. I have written books, produced online courses, led research efforts, and directed a number of university projects. While these have all been fulfilling, blogging tops the list because of its room for experimentation and potential to connect to timely intelligent debate. That keeps blogging at the top of the heap. ![Técnicas de Manipulación Mediática según Noam Chomsky [Infografía] | DigitalLiteracies | Scoop.it](http://img.scoop.it/RrC2y3hy5f6rLfkf2iV10jl72eJkfbmt4t8yenImKBVaiQDB_Rd1H6kmuBWtceBJ)

How central is technology to modern college life? This infographic breaks it down. 
A peer assist is a facilitated work-session, held face to face or virtually, where peers from different teams and organizations share their experiences and knowledge with a team that has requested help in meeting an upcoming challenge. Knowledge in the form of good practices, lessons learned, and insights is typically shared through relevant stories told by the people who experienced them. 
One of the common uses of Web 2.0 technologies is to build online collaborative learning communities for diverse populations of learners (Schneckenberg, Ehlers, & Adelsberger, 2010). Web 2.0 tools such as wikis, blogs, social networks, and tagging systems enable learners to contribute their personal views, ideas, and reflections in order to collaboratively create and edit collective online contents. There are two main features that make Web 2.0 technologies suitable for facilitating online collaborative learning. One of the features is the relatively simple and intuitive use of Web 2.0 tools which enable learners to easily contribute and experiment in online learning communities (Schneckenberg et al., 2010). Also, Web 2.0 technologies advance online collaborative learning by expanding the role of users from being passive recipients of knowledge to active participants in the construction of knowledge (Brown & Adler, 2008). 
Contrary to popular opinion, we do not yet live in the Information Age. At best, we live in the Data Age—a time when bits of data constantly zoom past our eyes and buzz past our ears, yet few of them inform us meaningfully and usefully. We’re spending millions to put all of that “Big Data” into “The Cloud” without first learning how to separate the signals from the noise. A storm cloud of our own making is already raining confusion down upon us. 
I selected this piece by Steve Rosenbaum for Mashable because there are some excellent tips to make you a trusted source, build a loyal following and add value to the community.
I don't know about you but everytime I read a post about curation, I see something different, this one is from someone who knows what he's talking about.
Here are some highlights:
Be part of the content ecosystem
**What a curator should do is embrace content both as a marketer and an organizer
Follow a schedule
**No matter what and how much you post, 2 new links a day and one big post per week, that's a schedule
**Be consistent and post at the same time everyday so your readers will know when to expect new content
**consistency and regularity brings new users and helps you build a loyal fan base
Embrace multi platforms
**Put your work where your audience is, today you have to go to them (more about this in the article)
Engage and Participate
**Select only the best content - read everything before you hit the send button - you'll build trust by helping your readers find great content and information
**This is a great way to build relationships with bloggers and other curators (more on this in the article)
Share, Don't Steal
**Last but definitely not least, you must acknowledge the source, there are no exceptions
**When people choose to listen to you, it's because you've proven to separate the signal from the noise

It is when we learn with and from each other. We can do this formally, informally, while we are face to face, or online. We can do it at the same time, or we can learn from each other asynchronously by leaving messages, comments, emails or recordings back and forth between ourselves. 
"Over the last couple of years, I’ve come to think of my role as a teacher as that of a curator of ideas" says Corinne Weisgerber who teaches Social Media and Communication at St Edwards Unniversity in Austin, TX (if you haven't yet, check out her great prez here).
As she explained in this post, the Curation Project was about getting her students "to set up a network of online mentors using social media tools" and "to identify experts in their field and connect with them in order to build a personal learning network (PLN)."
The idea behing the PNL is to help them discover valuable information through social search that they wouldn't have discovered otherwise.
Interesting project and read.
And great work by the students who used various curation platforms for the project, including Storify and Scoop.it (links in the post) Via gdecugis Mark Hoffman typically begins his elective course in Critical Thinking (CRT 100) by asking students what they did during the first hour after waking up that morning. Invariably, the first thing they did was make a decision—whether or not to get out of bed when the alarm went off, says Hoffman, a lecturer and coordinator of the Reading Program in BMCCs Developmental Skills department. More decisions follow—what to eat for breakfast, what to wear, whether to come to class. While some decisions are instinctive, some require real thought. In all cases, its important to be mindful before we make a choice or decision—not to act impulsively, but to approach it logically.
