My quick thoughts, back stage, and rants as I try to Teach kids about the Web while learning how to help others build a better Web.
Twitter also sells your privacy. I rely pretty much on students who can answer the question, "My url is...." but many courses organize on twitter #ds106 #walkmyworld #hearmyworld #rhizo15 #el30 #moocmooc #marginallsyllabus just to name a few.
Talking why can't we make our research more multimodal @vconnecting research. Here is one example I did...all the storify links gone: http://
@dogtrax if I go with 50/50 approach to my website andlet Known handle social stream I can do stuff like this: http://
@MusingsOnEdTech Here is a synthesis piece I did after #walkmyworld to show new ways of creating while being a critical consumer. https://
#NWPleads I have long respected @BRCrandall out reach with under represented voices and his cherishing silenced narratives. More importantly he awakens those once silenced.
I would love a chance to collaborate and think of NWP regional events.
-@wiobyrne, I , and a crew of others used to organize the print2pixel unconference. What about writing unconferences? Not really grant funded just some local begging.
-I am also creating the Youth Zone at our Women's Studies conference this year. Its in April. Thinking of doing some activitites. I would love to co-sponsor the space with CT Writing Project. Even better if you want to bring young women to share their voice.
-I am also the Gear Up coordinator for literacy. I will be running a class for 11th graders every Monday?Wednesday. We will be doing some SAT prep but mainly, writing, and #walkmyworld.
-Local affiliates should look to partner and run activities with the #GearUps in your state. Even better if you can write your involvement into the 2018 calls when they come out. Build the relationships now.
So I made this today. It was really my first time doing anything significant with Java Script. Lucked out when @sunnydeveloper shared a template.
I was at that very moment searching for easy CSS slidedecks. I wanted to make a multimodal poem. Kind of reflecting on time and the quality of writing. Sometimes ideas burst and other times they retreat. I was just thinking about time not always being an indicator of quality when we are talking about writing.
I also wanted to share the poem because I am not at #NCTE15. My exploration into the open web really began as I tried to bend the oldest genre in the world with the newest technologies that emerged.
I am also looking for a remix machine. Many of us still mourn the loss of tools like Zeega and Popcorn but maybe we are the remix machine. I need to learn positioning in terms of CSS/HTML. Making cool art and poems would be a fun way to learn. Maybe a community of those who want to play with images and words ....oh wait.
That's #walkmyworld. We do play with images and words. #Walkmyworld has its roots in NCTE. Sue Ringler-Pet and Ian O'Byrne and I began to explore poet-laureates through technology. Our first session was in 2008. We focused on poetry for two reasons: back then if you fore fronted technology people avoided your session; a b:) poetry allowed us to create non-sensical esoteric titles that helps with session approval.
So maybe that is what I will do with #walkmnyworld this year. Just keep playing.

I figured out what I was doing wrong with the font sizes on my #walkmyworld denouement. #teachtheweb
Attempting to Remix Academic Writing #dmlcommons #walkmyworld #teachtheweb

I steal from Alan Levine quite often.
I am most prod of hauling away a backstage blog from an open course he co-facilitated as part of #YouShow15. Then yesterday during #tjc15 folks started asking me about the role of having a back stage blog.
So I wanted to show an example.
Once again stole from cogdog. He posted a final report from #YouShow15. I loved the work, even if it is a horrible slideshow article aka BleacherReport. What I loved the most, Alan's work was 95% derivative and 100% original. He told a story using the words of others.
As the final event for #walkmyworld we had to curate our work. This was my example and this is the story of how it came to be and what I need to do as i revise
The Pre-Writing
Over the last year I have been trying to teach myself (translation: bug people smarter than me and Google a lot) CSS. I knew I wanted to try the single page website and play with sections. I also wanted the content to be a remix. So I started by pre-planning. I always start planning on paper. I am old school like that.
I then drafted my first attempt. I used Thimble. I am addicted to thimble.This was my draft.
The Revision
My first attempt is awful. I collected all my makes but my design leads to cognitive dissonance rather than aiding in comprehension. So I started to plan my revisions.
The design changes:
- I need to match the colors section so they make sense. This is an important cue to the reader
- I need to match the font sizes and be logical about my header levels
- I forgot to nest some content inside a div within the section. I used an inline display and something like a table thingy to center content.
The content changes:
- The content is a little jarring. Needs more logical sense
- Walkmyworld was about identity. Yet I focused on synthesis.Explain this
- I need to add a theoretical definitions of synthesis
