![]() These teachers see the internet and digital technologies such as social networking sites, cell phones and texting, generally facilitating teens’ personal expression and creativity, broadening the audience for their written material, and encouraging teens to write more often in more formats than may have been the case in prior generations. At the same time, they describe the unique challenges of teaching writing in the digital age, including the “creep” of informal style into formal writing assignments and the need to better educate students about issues such as plagiarism and fair use.

enfin, le concept anglo-saxon arrive en France.. La quasi totalité des étudiants français ne connaissent même pas le mot, ni l'idée et il est évident que les évaluateurs de la recherche "planifiée" non plus. Bien évidemment, il faut construire ces mises en situation innovantes heureuses!

Effectivement ! Créer les situations de sérendipité et surtout... REcréer. Moins de recherches fléchées, plus de temps, moins de pression sur le résultat et peut-être aussi plus d'ouverture vers les mouvements d'open science et de citizen science source de créativité et d'innovation

![]() Scoop.it is a great online curation tool that enables us to share relevant information with students in a visually appealing, easy to use format. ”Creative consumption” according to the folks at Scoop.it. Previously I’ve shared links to websites with students via koodle/wiki/email but Scoop.it enables creators to “scoop” several sites onto one page (or online magazine). It pays to show students the page to pique their interest. Via Heiko Idensen

it helps sharing relevant information with students who have less time than teachers to look for information. It allows those are curious enough to go further in a topic with the help of others. It may awaken those who have a "research" profile to go further into the information frontier.

![]() You can form a cartel. Or you can ignore it all together. - If you want to understand the modern academy, it wouldn’t hurt to start at “impact factor.” Every year, the company Thomson Reuters assigns every academic journal an “impact factor.” Impact factors measure, roughly, how often papers published in one journal are cited by other journals. It is an ecological measurement, in other words. You’d recognize the names of journals with the highest impact factors — Nature, Science, etc. — but the world of scholarly journals is enormous, and there’s crowding at the bottom. Two stories today illustrate the problems with impact factors, and the difficulty of measuring knowledge through any metric. First, Nature News revealed that a Brazilian citation cartel had been outed by Thomson Reuters. That’s right: a citation cartel. The Brazilian government measures graduate schools based on the impact factor of the journals that those schools’ students publish in. Brazilian journals, many of which are newer, have low impact factors, so Brazilian graduate students often publish in journals abroad. This makes them and their graduate program look better, but it means the commercial benefit of Brazilian scholarship flows, in part, to non-Brazilian companies. So editors at a set of Brazilian journals began linking to each others’ journals... a lot. The flurry of cross-citation made every journal appear more influential, and succeeded in raising the journals’ impact factor in 2011. For a moment, the scheme worked. Until it didn’t.

The implication here is that applying economic rationalization to research culture seems to lead directly to a) corruption; b)meaningless research activity; c) strife filled worlds for academic researchers whereby value is measured against criteria external to the research concerns; and d) probably lower standards of teaching since this research outputs have more "value" for academic's careers.
