Digital curation, the preservation and maintenance of digital assets
Curation may also be:
The work performed by a curatorArchiving, historical record keeping
Evidence management, indexing and cataloguing of evidence
Cultural heritage management, conservation of cultural sites and resources". From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The curation topic that I am putting together is based around Teaching Technology to Year 3 and Year 4 using the Australian Curriculum: Technology as a guideline. Jarche (2012) says that curation is essential for professionals in the digital age because we all struggle with information overload and that it is essential to have a process in place to manage personal knowledge.
The curation process is described by Jarche (2012) and Kanter (2011) as having 3 phases - Seek, Sense, Share.
Seek – seek playfully to connect
Sense – make sense and be empowered through learning
Share – share to inspire through your work (Jarche, n.d.)
The tools that I will be using to seek information will be Twitter, Diigo, Zite and Pinterest. In sensing I will archive, annotate and apply what I have learned and by blogging and providing insight on my curation page I will apply what I have learned. Resources will be shared on Scoopit, Twitter and My WordPress blog.
