NECC Notes:

Opening Keynote Speaker - James Surowiecki
Mr. Surowiecki gives a compelling opening session as he talks about the power and collective wisdom of crowds. He believes we can arrive at superior decisions by aggregating our collective intelligence in groups.

A basic summary of The Wisdom of Crowds.

What is Web 2.0? And more importantly, where will it go? I am constantly amazed at how much stuff is out there.

So is this the definitive list?
http://www.go2web20.net/

Check out this massive list indexed through a tag cloud and find cool and useful Web 2.0 apps. I can spend hours here finding great resources and learning about all the new Web 2.0 technologys. Share your great finds, thoughts or developments...

What creates a viral message?
Is it necessary to create shock factor or have a gimmick?

With more than 4,716,566 plus one views to the "Will it blend" clip, this is an amazing approach to building a viral view. What was the secret behind the strategy that caused so many to view? Have you found other examples or thought about creating a viral push? Technology and it's application has come a long way. It's not just about uploading videos, keyboarding, PowerPoint in our schools, it's about true innovation and creative thought behind the technology we use and how we create a groundswell.

Great book that speaks to the GROUNDSWELL of it all.

Preferred Student Communication Tools

I've discovered this information first hand when I first turned on text messaging on my kid's cell phones. My son, a freshman in high school, managed to rack up 3,500 text messages in one month, and that's having been grounded from his phone for two weeks that month. My daughter is much better, she still calls us, old timers, but chooses to text her friends in college.

Only 12% of students currently check email on their mobile, but eROI predicts tha…

Everyone had something to post and I'm sure you'll find it here and on individual's blogs. Great discussions - security, filtering, change, social networks, student engagement, teacher empowerment, Here Comes Everybody, and so much more. Thank you all.
