Day 5

--Originally published at Digital Identity blog

The day began with Ken lettin us ask anything, but people was still asleep or something, because there where only a few questions. After that we saw a video on how education haven’t change much. There is always a teacher and a group of students, students show a better performance by having a teachear rather than a tv or radio speaking.

Here is a video about it:

Later that day Diego Zavala came to explain us how to make a video, but instead of showing us how to use a program for editing he show us that nowadays it’s more important to show people how to tell a story rather than how to edit it in a program.

He showed us some videos and told us that a video can be simply made by using pictures and narrating a story or having a short animation.

Day 4

Today we started the course by reading other’s blogs, some where really cool with a great disingh, like the yellow duck, and others where kinda not related to what most is writting. I guess they took the no rules thing seriously.

After that Ken told us look some tools to learn more about. In the bening i was looking at the story of the gifs and how a big part was lost due to some galery website going down, but latter Ken show us some cool information about our browsers.

Google chrome as almost every browser is capable of saving your passwords, but this is not the safest way of saving passwords, so you can manage wich passwords chrome saves and wichones don’t. I personally don’t save passwords in my browser, but it is a cool tool to see what is already saved there. You just go to settings then advanced configuration and there is a section of passwords and formularies.

Day 3

Today we talked about the type of users if we are visitors or residents, if it is personal or proffecional. Here is a video that explains it well.

We learned that the visitors are the people that only watch and consume the content that the residents produce.

After the brief explanation by ken we had a video link with Autumm Caines, Bonnie Stewart and Sundie Richards. #TechnoKen

They initially talked about what makes us residents or visitors, with come examples, like youtube. Sundie mention that being personal can lead to having nice conversation with people, and then they proceed to show us a way to graph our activity on the internet.

Here is a picture of mine:

Day 1

Today we had a video link with Dave Cormier, an educational researcher and speaker on Open Learning, MOOCs and the impact of technology on the future of education.

Monday Guest Speaker Video Link and Bio

We asked him some questions about how our digital identity affects us, we learned that what we do in the internet is public, and someone might fing out what we did or said in the past. We also got some cool tips, not be whiny about everything, have passwords with good segurity even if this means we need to keep them written somewhere.

Ciberbullying was a subject that we touch, the stuff people publish on the internet may affect them in a positive or negative way, if for some reason you had something embarasing or negative posted , since there is no way to completely erase it from the internet, best you can do is overcome it and clarify things.
