LIVING IN LEARNING OCTOBER 27, 2012 Tin Can & Performer Support – “Just Enough – Just in Time – Just for Me” Have you ever explained something to someone who is either hearing it for the first time or is still trying to get their head wrapped around the concept? You know how they will nod slowly in seeming agreement while looking off into the ether and saying dreamily, “Yeah…” really, really slowly?” That far-off look is confirmation that they are indeed interested and yet remain clueless for the most part. The room was full of those folks in the Tin Can break out session where I heard this new sound bite. | BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE OCTOBER 27, 2012  ROI of Learning Games: Knowledge Guru and ExactTarget [Infographic] You’ve heard the hype.

One of the more controversial theories of the digital age is the claim that technology is changing (or rewiring) our brains (Greenfield, 2009) whilst some also claim that prolonged use of the Web is detrimental to human intellectual development (Carr, 2010). There is further yet dissent. References Bennett, S., | LEARNING TECHNOLOGY LEARNING OCTOBER 27, 2012 Using ipads in teaching and learning - Logistics As a result of running one teaching workshop with multiple ipads I've encounter a lot of the logistical issues you come across. Some I foresaw, some I did not. The easiest way to integrate ipads (or any other tablet device) into formal education is to buy each student a device to manage themselves. This is a luxury most institutions don't have and would constitute a huge leap of faith. It's more likely that you start with buying a few and piloting them - as we have done. Not being a technie I don't have exhaustive knowledge and what's required. There are 2 networks. Not good. | | | | | | | |

JAY CROSS | SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2012 Jay Cross - Untitled Article
The forecast for Game 1 versus the Detroit Tigers is cloudy with a 15 to 20 percent chance of rain, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Austin Cross , who adds that he expects the skies to be relatively clear for the 5 p.m. game time.
