Loosely coupled assessment
Here’s the thing it’s 2000 all over. Eportfolio is the new LMS. Watching a recent vendor presentation I thought “I can’t believe this is happening again.” That single phrase. In a loop. In my head. Because remember — this happened … Continue reading
EPortaro demonstration today (any help?)
I’m attending an EPortaro demonstration in about 50 minutes. If you read this blog at all, you can probably guess what I think about such eportfolio solutions. It’s 2000 all over again, with vendors coming in to save us from … Continue reading

So, I’ve just stumbled into a gold mine. Via an inbound link from Stephen Downes, I’ve discovered that much of what I’ve been calling an inverted LMS has been called elsewhere a PLE (personal learning environment): Helen Barrett receives an … Continue reading
It’s not just Experts vs. Amateurs. It’s Experts vs. Experts in Something Else.
So there’s not much subtlety in a recent comment on Jon Udell’s call to experiment with local weather data and look for trends. After reading Jon’s piece on using Many Eyes to determine local trends, Brendan Lane Larson, a Weather … Continue reading

Send Bloggers
One of the absolutely consistent features of website development (at least in my neck of the woods) is that storytelling problems are miscast as technology platform problems. Here’s a typical example. I’m currently working with a department to move them … Continue reading

Marc Andreessen Supports the Inverted LMS (sort of)
This is fascinating, to me at least. Marc (are we allowed to call him Marca?) came late to blogging, but he’s clearly making up for lost time and talking to the right people. But what I noted in his recent … Continue reading
