    At the turn of the century, higher education looked in the mirror and, seeing its portals, its easy-to-use LMSs, and its “digital campuses,” admired itself as sleek, youthful, attractive. But the mirror lied. I like this sentence from Gardner Campbell’s Personal Cyber-infrastructure essay the most because of how it personifies higher education as a vain […]

    The Assignment: I was looking through the different ds106 categories for something I hadn’t tried before, and came across this assignment. Since I’ve always loved cooking, and was once a first place winner in the Northwest high school culinary competition, I thought this would be really fun to do.

    March 12, 2012
    I still think these discussions are fun, but I have to say I don’t really like the topic of cyberbullying. It’s almost like watching the news in that you won’t hear anything good about it… Anyway today, I got to see more three presenters who talked about bullying and other methods of attacking people online.

    February 21, 2012
    Today’s Daily Create was: Tell the story of a place in one ambient audio recording. I heard the song about roasted sweet potatoes yesterday when I went grocery shopping at Aeon (Japanese grocery store), and it got stuck in my head even though I already have sweet potatoes. So when this came up, I thought ...

    This is just a random post, but I found this site , and I’m really surprised that we’ve gotten to the point where computers from long ago can be emulated without even needing to install a program. The emulator simply runs within the browser window. The interactivity this brings is probably a really good example ...

    I went back and did this one because there wasn’t any New Daily Creates I felt inspired to do. So, this day’s Daily Create was: Take a photo of two related objects of drastically different sizes. I drink a lot of water, maybe more than I need, but that’s besides the point. I already have ...

    January 28, 2012
    The Assignment: To be honest, I don’t know where the assignment came from, or even if it is one. From Scott Lockman’s post, it appears to be a spin-off assignment he thought of after reading a classmate’s assignment… But oh, well. I’ve been wanting to make a funny animated GIF of this for a while ...

    The Assignment: I decided to hop on the bandwagon of other classmates that have been doing “Patty Pioneers” since Adam first submitted it as a DS106 assignment. He wrote the assignment instructions as follows: Simply put, this assignment involves editing a picture of any Computer Pioneer so that it looks like they are eating/about to ...

    January 18, 2012
    I just thought of this as I was reading Anthony’s blog post he wrote that stemmed from the quote in class that the iPhone is the memex. I read more about the Bush’s original idea of the memex, which (quoting from the Wikipedia article) “compress and store all of [one's] books, records, and communications, mechanized ...

    January 18, 2012
    The Assignment: This one wasn’t an actual assignment on the DS106 website. Which is convenient since the DS106 site is blacked out in protest of SOPA at the moment. But I guess if I were to write an short set of instructions for this, it would be: “Take a photo of a piece of modern-day ...
