I have had at least one blog since 2002. Since that time, I have also had control of the server on which my blog and other content I created was stored. At the beginning of this period of time, I worked at a university and was able to run a server through the university network. This translates as I had a dedicated IP for my site and once som

As a parent, I often struggle with the concept of screen time. In order to understand this better and learn to understand different perspectives, I'd greatly appreciate any input on the topic here: https://pol.is/68re97rpmj #parenting #digitalliteracy

It's an emerging resource that I hope we'll be able to use to get some funding to dive deeper into this.

(I see this as an extension of my doctoral studies on #DigitalLiteracy and Mozilla work on #WebLiteracy)

@willjames of KNKX Public Radio reports: "Librarians in Whatcom County are working with UW to create a series of online quizzes designed to get participants thinking about the quality of information online and their own ability to tell true from false. One quiz, for example, involves a deal for a used truck that looks too good to be true."

I never cease to be amazed at how utterly useless the average #scholar is at #citing a scholarly work correctly, especially works on the web. Reading something now which is basically an orgy of reference rot. URLs containing temporaral session ids, URLs with parameters when a DOI is available, and so it goes.

Basic understanding of the web just doesn't seem to exist -- which is a very depressing indicator of the #digitalliteracy competency of the average scholar. 😬 What can be done?

Para evaluar información online hay q responder 3 preguntas bases:
1.- ¿quien lo dice?
2.- ¿Cual es la evidencia?
3.- ¿Que dicen otras fuentes?
es un poco preocupante q haya personas q ostentan cargos y q se les dificulte esto 🤌🤷‍♂️

AI?

‘there’s an opportunity for librarians here. Our training and experience puts us in a good position to deal with an increasingly more complex information environment.’

Do we need librarians now that we have ChatGPT?

A significant step in use of AI for generating images and a far cry from the early faux surrealist/sci-fi tinged examples from Dall-E etc. This will affect every typ of image use we can think of advertising, design, illustration, stock images, journalism/news. We will have to look at images in a new way. Just downloaded the beta to try.

Researchers find strong links between #online radicalization and violence.

Extremists use #algorithms to attract teenagers.

#DigitalLiteracy doesn't address the root cause.

Hint: #polarisation is still #BigTech's biz model.

School phone bans seem obvious but could make it harder for kids to use tech in healthy ways

But if we ban phones and bury this issue under the sand, when and how do our kids learn to have a healthy relationship with technology in a world becoming more tech-focused by the day?
