10 iPad Apps for Web Curation Curation vs. Aggregation? Curation is such a necessity these days. The overwhelming wave of information we are exposed to is drowning us in facts and opinion. Not only do we need to be curating the information that we are consuming but we need to be insisting that our students have the skills and necessary tools in which to curate their own world. I have listed a number of capable curation apps that can help to do just that.http://appsineducation.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/10-ipad-apps-for-web-curation.html

I just revisited Flipboard for the first time in a long time after reading Vicky's review.  I do believe this would be a great curation tool - especially for those lucky enough to have a 1:1 iPad classroom!


I continue to see a connection between students curating resources and personalized learning.  What are your thoughts?

Nancy White's curator insight, December 20, 2012 3:45 PM

Joyce Valenza identifies curating as an "information life skill."  While librarians are uniquely qualified for this task, it is a skill that everyone can benefit from, including students.  Joyce provides links to some of the curating tools available. Good summary, and some excellent questions are posed for futher thought and research.

Social curation - the act of curating a conversation - this one is about curation itself.

Curating is definitely mediated by the curators own spin on the content, whether it be understanding, interest, preference or other bias.
