Readability tests and tools 
As part of my exploration of Reading 2.0 and textual analysis for social media here’s a roundup of readability tests and tools. Test your writing: Drivel Defence (Plain English Campaign) Google reading level filter – using advanced search perform a blank search of a specific website and annotate results with reading levels; the search results will be topped with a chart showing what pe

Knowledge and social media
What role can social media tools play in the creation of knowledge? Can the interactions themselves generate knowledge? Interesting questions to ponder in relation to MOOCs. edSocial Media looks at dimensions : establish a conversation (one dimension) – chat topic and hashtag on Twitter, Google+ community; one dimensional because once the conversation ends the learning ends document the conv

Update: creating focus
Reining in interest is sort of going OK, as I have been largely sunk in MOOCery and refining my research interests for a couple of months. Librarians are prone to being generalists, and I often feel envious of people who have a clear focus. Working on sharpening mine a bit more. Related to MOOCs is the issue of lurking, and various forms of activity being considered of lower value to others. In hi

#lawmoocs: law schools, law teachers and MOOCs
This post rounds up information and links on law MOOCs and MOOCery – thanks to @richards1000 for his help. It’s seems it’s still pretty early days, but we’ll keep this page updated with any further information we find – leave a comment or tweet @annindk if you can help, and in particular if you are a MOOCing law teacher or student! Most of my MOOCs (see posts on theor

MOOC update 3: what?s the use?
At the moment I’m registered on #h817open and #acadmooc , but turns out I’m more interested in how the thing works than the content – the MOOC angle seems to get in the way of my actually learning anything. In the latest on MOOC infrastructures, Wordpress is increasingly used in UK based MOOCs – in particular the FeedWordPress plugin to aggregate blogs (alternative is gRSSh

(Dis)engaging from MOOCs: can it be a positive?
My record on completing MOOCs isn’t great. Which isn’t to say I haven’t learnt anything – if not as much as I had hoped. The most visible MOOC participants are those who commit 110%, the ones who make the forums unusable : P I’ve been pretty visible early on in three of the MOOCs I signed up for, while slowly disengaging. These less visible participants are an issue f

Sunday linkage
Haven’t done a plain links post for ages. I’m trying to get away from lists, but perhaps a few annotated links can be a good way of tracking current interests. Or a nice Sunday displacement activity. Events…many are still completely unamplified or curated, but for this seminar on the power of social media to support knowledge sharing this was particularly ironic. However checking
