Thought I’d share something we worked on last year - almost at the same time Twitter came into its own. and before we thought up Twitter for Ethnography.

From Rob’s post at the Fast Forward blog:

Learning to be … through Learning Journeys
02.01.08 | Dina | Permalink | 3 CommentsMahatma Gandhi once said: “We must be the change we wish to see in the world.”

Great piece on Social Learning titled Minds on Fire: Open Education, the Long Tail, and Learning 2.0 by John Seely Brown and Richard P. Adler. The supercool text illustrations are by Susan E. Haviland.
Some snippets I really enjoyed:

Twitter for Ethnography
02.01.08 | Dina | Permalink | 7 CommentsThere’s a discussion on at the anthrodesign group around how best to approach a diary project. An excerpt from the initial query:

Invasive or Transformative - mobile phones now read you

Social Media Strategies - lets remember Maslow!
Got this link from Tara Hunt’s links - a good primer on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Motivational Model originally developed in the 40’s and 50’s with adaptations from the 1970’s (cognitive and aesthetic needs added) and 1990’s (transcendence needs added). The basic premise of the model is:
