Meeting 10: August 12, 8:15 a.m. Pacific

This week's reading will be a post http://highered.blogspot.com/2009/07/tlts-harvesting-feedback-proje... from David Eubank's 'Higher Ed (assessing the elephant)' blog where he responds to some of the Harvesting Gradebook work Nils, Theron, and Jayme presented at the July 28 TLT webinar on the creative uses of rubrics. Eubanks suggests that a cost-effective method for getting ratings from community members might use a mechanism like Amazon's Mechanical Turk. Nils ran with the suggestion, exploring Mechanical Turk and then responded in a http://communitylearning.wordpress.com/2009/08/03/crowd-sourcing-fe... comparing it to other crowd-source feedback systems.

Should make for lively discussion. Hope you can make it.

Nils Peterson commented on Jayme Jacobson's blog post 'Meeting 12: October 21, 8:15 a.m. Pacific'
I found this piece stimulating on several levels. The quote contrasting "I think, therefore I am" with "We participate, therefore we are." is a interesting paradigm shift. I wrote a response to the article, written after the last MGR was canceled.
