ICT教學開懷篇(25) – 甚麼密碼最安全？

如果香港特首候選人需要面試，ICT界別選委面試可以問：

「甚麼密碼最安全？」

以這位仁兄「大智若愚」的級數，相信可以比所有候選人，更勝任當香港特首！

Google Wave在教學上的應用初探 (9) – 終結篇

作為Google^W fans，iGardener老師曾經對2009年面世的Google Wave^W寄以厚望，並在中四的課堂試用，嘗試開展三年新高中ICT的滑浪之旅，可惜Google^W攪 social，像男扮女裝，毫不自然，最終都是被用家放棄。

Google^W被Steve Jobs^W影響，近年來持續執行網上服務的大掃除行動，在本周更宣布將終止Google Wave、Gears、Bookmarks Lists、Friend Connect、Search Timeline、Knol與Renewable Energy Cheaper than Coal等產品。

Google Wave^W是Google於2009年發表的整合通訊協作平台，由於使用者的接受度未達預期，使得Google^W去年8月便宣布要終止該計畫。Google^W本周表示，明年1月底時Google Wave^W將只能讀取，但無法建置新的Wave，而且會在4月底完全關閉。

今天iGardener老師終於收到Google^W的電郵，Google Wave^W正式「被夕陽」了：

所以我在此宣佈《Google Wave在教學上的應用初探》系列正式完結。

優秀ICT教學記錄片系列(7) – 2011《透視Google內幕 Inside Google》記錄片 (國家地理頻道)

國家地理頻道^W在2011年播放的有關Google^W的記錄片，開始具批判的記錄她擁有龐大雲端數據的問題，適合雲端課題的討論材料。

這是中文字幕版本。

『國家地理頻道』透視內幕 Google – Part 1

社交媒體 (Social Media)教學系列(5) – 25個iGarden推介的外國教育twitters

不知道為甚麼Twitter^W在香港總是紅不起，新浪微博^W的用途亦只流於娛樂八卦的碎碎念，這幾年iGardener主要是靠Twitter^W直接了解外國的教育趨勢（尤其電子學習），很感慨外國的老師不須教育部門的「大方向」或先導計劃，便可以自發利用低成本的社交網站^W，組織不少甚具影響力的學習群體，如 Flat Classroom 等，我們香港嘛，仍是熱衷和留戀於成立「同鄉會」式的諸般學界協會……

好了，回復正能量的園丁吧！

記得在24/9的《Education 2.5me: Master the new Media in learning environment 新媒體伸教學》的研討會中，有同工對園丁《新媒體、真學習》短講中提及的外國教育twitters十分感興趣，除了我寄了給他們的幾個twitter名稱之外，還整理一下現有過百的跟隨(follows)，現精選了25 個甚具代表性的教育twitters，在此公開推介給各位有志了解外國教育趨勢的同工吧！
