For me, one of the most important keys to adoption of teaching practices throughout an organization like a school, are the members of Rogers’ Early Adopters category. They are the first followers, as Derek Sivers entertainingly portrays in his video, First Follower: Leadership Lessons from the Dancing Guy. It’s not all about the leaders–it’s about the followers.

For “Badges in Social Media: A Social Psychological Perspective” social psychologist/research scientist Judd Antin and Principal Research Scientist, Elizabeth Churchill collaborated to summarize what badges are in specific terms, and how they work in what they call the “5 Primary Functions for Achievements”. These include Goal Setting, Instruction, Reputation, Status/Affirmation and Group identification. They make mention that while badges strongly influence some users, some others are indifferent and in some cases even demotivated by the implementation of badges. The paper ends by concluding that more research needs to be done in different contexts to explore the circumstances in which badges are the most effective.

Martin Weller, Professor of Educational Technology at the OU, explores the impact of technology on higher education in his new book, The Digital Scholar. Martin says that starting to blog was one of the best decisions in his academic career to date and explores how the age of academic publishing - when new platforms extend opportunities beyond those of the academic journal or conference paper - is changing thanks to digital technologies. Here he explains his reasons for writing the book, why you can access and adapt its content for free, and how you can win a signed copy.
