Infographics. You have probably seen them before. They are a visual way to represent just about any sort of data set you want to. Sometimes they are great for getting at the heart of data, while others, well they are what some would call clickbait. Either way they catch our eye and draw our attention. There are so many different types of infographics out there on a wide variety of topics. Here are just a few. (Click the images to see more): Via paul rayner

“ Write your name in graffiti style!”
Graffiti Creator est une application Flash gratuite et en ligne, qui vous permet de créer des grafittis (votre pseudonyme ou votre logo par exemple). Commencez par choisir votre police de caractères (Kodiak, la police par défaut et la dernière de la liste, est une des plus lisibles). Il y en a 10, et chacune possède ses propresoptions graphiques (donc si vous changez de police en cours de route, vous perdez tout le travail effectué). Puis entrez votre texte, et modifiez la couleur des options graphiques, qui sont nombreuses et variées, et qui peuvent elles-mêmes comporter plusieurs paramètres (transparence, flou, lueur externe ou ombre). Certaines polices proposent un thème par défaut, ou un choix des couleurs aléatoire, et même une image de fond. Vous pouvez aussi sélectionner les lettres sur lesquelles vous souhaitez travailler. Quand vous êtes satisfait du résultat, vous pouvez sauvegarder l’image. (texte http://www.olivier-penant.com) Via Murielle Godement, Michèle Drechsler

...The impulse to share knowledge in a free environment also is not new. In many ways MOOCs and Open Courseware and Wikipedia and Creative Commons and Google/YouTube are all part of the same project – envisioned by visionaries such as Richard Stallman, media producers behind the start of public broadcasting here and abroad, much earlier, even, by publishers active centuries ago in the Enlightenment, and even earlier, in ancient Alexandria under the Ptolemaic kings.

The New Media Consortium (NMC) has released Digital Literacy: An NMC Horizon Project Strategic Brief in conjunction with the 2016 EDUCAUSE Annual Conference. Commissioned by Adobe, the special report explores the advancement of digital literacy, which is sparking new thinking in higher education about how to best prepare students for the demands of the global technological economy.
This project was launched because there is a lack of consensus across the field about how to define digital literacy and implement effective programs. A survey was disseminated throughout the NMC community of higher education leaders and practitioners to understand how digital literacy initiatives are impacting their campuses. The NMC’s research examines the current landscape to illuminate multiple models of digital literacy — universal literacy, creative literacy, and literacy across disciplines — around which dedicated programs can proliferate a spectrum of skills and competencies. These initiatives have the potential to generate more excitement around learning for students, especially as their growing fluency enables deeper connections with others and equips them with a new lens to critically evaluate the world around them.
In analyzing the progress and gaps in this area, the NMC’s report has identified a need for higher education leaders and technology companies to prioritize students as makers, learning through the act of content creation rather than mere consumption. Additionally, the publication recommends that colleges and universities establish productive collaborations with industry, government, and libraries to provide students with access to the latest technologies and tools. All four recommendations are summarized below. Via Edumorfosis, Yashy Tohsaku

It’s Tuesday again and time for me to unleash another tech-isode in my “Tech It Up Tuesday” series in which I share an edtech tool, app, site or other resource that can be utilized in the educational setting. This week’s geeky goodness is about to get started right here, right now with some info regarding the selection of apps for use in the classroom. With a myriad of tools available to teachers, it’s sometimes mind-boggling trying to identify which are the most effective. Via Jamie Forshey, Juergen Wagner
