On Seams, Seamlessness, and Methodology | Ithaka S+R | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Earlier this month, I encountered a thought-provoking talk by Tim Sherratt making the very strong argument that seamlessness should not be our only goal in designing digital library systems. The talk is a year old but it is well worth reading today.

The new digital divide is between people who opt out of algorithms and people who don't

The new digital divide is between people who opt out of algorithms and people who don't | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Every aspect of life can be guided by artificial intelligence algorithms – from choosing what route to take for your morning commute, to deciding whom to take on a date, to complex legal and judicial matters such as predictive policing.

Big tech companies like Google and Facebook use AI to obtain insights on their gargantuan trove of detailed customer data. This allows them monetize users’ collective preferences through practices such as micro-targeting, a strategy used by advertisers to narrowly target specific sets of users.

Connecting Researchers to New Digital Tools | Not Dead Yet

Connecting Researchers to New Digital Tools | Not Dead Yet | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
A couple of months ago I got an email from my colleague Chris Erdmann (Data Scientist Training for Librarians) at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. He wanted to talk about ways librarians could help keep the scholarly community informed about new and developing technologies that could affect its work. He’s been following Thomas Crouzier’s blog, Connected Researchers, and talking with other interested, interesting folks such as Amy Brand at Digital Science. Chris and Amy thought that a discussion among a group of librarians and other stakeholders in the scholarly process could be a promising beginning for brainstorming ideas and strategies.

7 Awesome Visual Alternatives to Google Docs | Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

7 Awesome Visual Alternatives to Google Docs | Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

You don't need a degree in rocket science to know that visually organized data appeals more to students than plain text-based scribble. The visual stimulus is quickly captured by the brain and requires way less processing to understand and code it than written text. As teachers, we need to capitalize on this and try to include as many relevant visuals as possible. One way to do this is to use these visual alternatives to Google Docs.
