Slacktivism: Good or Bad? | Nathan Bromm
https://nathanbromm.wordpress.com/2016/04/06/slacktivism-good-or-bad
Educator on a Mission. Slacktivism: Good or Bad? April 6, 2016. What could be controversial at first glance? At the time I had no idea that this topic is part of the whole slacktivist. Debate. After reading though the articles from this past week and considering some of the activism projects in the digital world, I’m still a bit uncertain about whether slacktivism. Notes that slacktivism in larger networked numbers provides support to those actually on the ground and that those actively engaged in digita...

Troll and harass away- it’s not face to face so who cares? | Nathan Bromm

Educator on a Mission. Troll and harass away- it’s not face to face so who cares? April 4, 2016. April 4, 2016. I often wonder about the negativity presented about the digital age and social media and question if this stems from a lack of education or pure disregard for human decency. Those that choose to post such malicious attacks on others must know this is wrong and must know that it is in a very public forum that compounds the impact over traditional face to face right? As I watched this week’...

Where’s the coin slot on my wireless? | Nathan Bromm
https://nathanbromm.wordpress.com/2016/03/18/wheres-the-coin-slot-on-my-wireless
Educator on a Mission. Where’s the coin slot on my wireless? March 18, 2016. Graph: United Nations Global Development Goals Indicators. This week I have read about the digital divide. Which paints a challenging picture for public policy makers, small internet start-ups, and individuals that are trying to ensure the internet and the digital world are equally accessible and secure for all users. Portable devices are so sophisticated that we can do everything we would do at home from a landline via WiFi.

Educator on a Mission. Learning project ends, learning continues. April 18, 2016. April 18, 2016. Image from: Quotes Gram. My EC& I project posts. Students liked ability to share with others to ask questions or find answers from others. Learning new technology can be challenging- although you’re using a computer, sometimes it is helpful to close your screen and just watch the teacher so you do not get distracted (speaking to the choir here, right! Many felt it helped them improve their writing. The respo...

The Value of Comments | Nathan Bromm
https://nathanbromm.wordpress.com/2016/03/20/the-value-of-comments
Educator on a Mission. The Value of Comments. March 20, 2016. Over the past week we have spent time reading award-winning and nominated student blogs on EduBlogs. The idea was to expose my students to other student’s blogs as the first step to becoming a better blogger by reading and getting ideas from others. While we explored other blogs, I encouraged the students to think about their own posts and to try commenting on a post or two that they enjoyed reading or found of interest to them. Commenting is ...

Summary of Learning | Nathan Bromm

Educator on a Mission. April 11, 2016. April 11, 2016. It took me a while to sort out what I wanted to do for my summary of learning and I soon discovered that it was not an easy task to condense everything into a short video. However, I did it! How I might use it with PowerPoint,. And then found a useful video explaining all the nuts and bolts. Which I’m excited to use in the future as a simple audio editing too.
