Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants
Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants
Another challenge task confronts you -- I was curious about the annoying link in the Blogger bar titled "Blog This" so I used the handy dandy help feature to discover what a wonderful tool this can be...if you add it to you links bar in your browser (of if you have the GOOGLE tool bar installed, you can adjust the options to show the 'Blog this' link in its visible icons) then when you visit a page that you would like to post on your blog, you just click ' Blog this' and the URL is automatically prepared to post in your blog--you have the opportunity to add a comment if you wish. This is a bit like sharing your favourites with the world..or in this case, I'm sharing my fascination with philosophy and technology. Here is the article by Marc Prensky that I refered to earlier. Apparently, you can just highlight the bits of the page you want, and that is what will appear in your posting...for me, I've just given you this description and the link to the HTML version of the paper. It's a bit dated, but still quite original in concept.
