Interest indicators) play an integral part in creating a social search ecology and offer more diverse ways to discover resources. The Few days ago Hans Põldoja told me that Riina Vuorikari has been using the ecology concept in her social retrieval studies. It gives some input to the model of ecosystems (learning ecology) . Specifically

If we start working together and integrating PLEs, the group space is somewhat inconsistent. must integrate this challenging learning in the conditions of ‘blind spaces’ present at teams and continuous detection of what is going on in team. I have been busy writing the descriptions of three iCamp cases and looking back of what was actually important, what we can bring at the more general level. Previously i have not been thinking enough of the phenomenon what i would name ‘blind space’.

ICT ARCHITECTURAL AND INTEGRATION ASPECTS Service Software Development and Integration Interoperability The 7th Framework project Intelligent Learning Extended Organization ( IntelLEO ) was launched in february 2009. Since then we have been working with the first deliverables. It is now clear that the team has a lot of Web 2.0

the individualized learner-specific integration of their goal-directed activities with other perceived components, resources and community activities in the environment; and ii) Today i sent away my paper: Modeling spaces for self-directed learning at university courses to the special call of Journal of Educational Technology & Society. I

Integratio While my Dutch is still far from perfect I am happy with any opportunity to reach local audiences. One of them was writing two articles on blogging for Dutch magazine Informatie Professional – on weblog as an instrument to develop ideas and as a networking tool. Next to the hard work of translating insights from my PhD research it involved serious magic of turning work submitted in one language into a publication in another, so big thanks to everyone involved.

But the method that I use to arrive at conclusions is itself an application of integral theory . have explained my take on this in the following article: Beyond Perspectives, Reductionisms and Layers , which appeared in Integral Review, Issue 1, 2005 (June), pp. A critique of SD/Integral, http://www.kheper.net/topics/Wilber/SDi_critique.html Citation from Daniel Gustav Anderson: By “after Wilber” I mean that the sun has set on Wilber’s project in a number of ways, at least as a practical and intellectual project.

Despite this plug-in, I still believe IBM has made a fundamental and perhaps unrecoverable competitive mistake by not being radically more aggressive regarding SharePoint integration. usability, communities, wiki) rather than dramatically improving its integration with SharePoint (adopting a "surround and extend" tactic). Well-worth your time checking out the demo (just follow the link below). If you are using SharePoint but are considering Lotus Connections for blogs, communities,

Integratio It feels strange now, almost at the end of my PhD work, to come back to the themes and topics from the beginning of it. Like a few weeks ago, when the post by Jack Vinson brought back the metaphor of a weblog as a front porch from the discussions in 2004 . I’ve been playing with city-related metaphors for a long time, heavily inspired by the book by Danish architect Jan Gehl “ Life between buildings “.

Unless one has nothing else to do, blogging survives only if integrated into the everyday world. Integratio Behind my PhD research is an interest in translating practices of early adopters of weblogs into something that those that come after them might use: an understanding of relative advantage of blogging in knowledge-intensive environments and it’s compatibility with existing practices. Below is another piece from the final chapter of my dissertation, the one where I draw the implications of my findings for an individual knowledge worker, a pragmatist, who wants to know what
