Mobile now and the future

Posted by: ashleytan on: May 14, 2012

  by  MJ/TR (´・ω・)  When I cannot read an article deeply, I favourite it in Twitter or mark it for reading later in Read It Later. Since RIL is now called Pocket, I guess I stuff it in my Pocket for scrutiny later. I link my Twitter stream and favourites to Delicious bookmarks via Packrati.us. So one way or another, I [...]

Five days make one work weak

Posted by: ashleytan on: March 24, 2012

  by  brookenovak  Yes, weak, not week. I look forward to some weekends more than others. I really need this weekend to recharge. It seems as if I did a week’s worth of work for each work day this week. I know this because I am normally good at keeping up with my Twitter stream and RSS [...]

Posted by: ashleytan on: March 8, 2012

Posted by: ashleytan on: February 13, 2012

  by  Marc Wathieu  If you have observed some major online players offering open educational resources, you might think that the era of free and open online learning resources has arrived. What am I talking about? For something more recent, consider Apple’s iTunes U, YouTube Education, or the Prezi U announcement and site. Carnegie Mellon has its [...]
