Thought control devices? < click for PDF
A Wearable Computing Conference sponsored by Samsung in NYC on November 7, 2013. Would be interesting to attend, but I found it very interesting that this promotional piece is not only sloppily designed, but no title related to education was included on the list of “executives who should attend.” Really?
Attended a webinar today featuring Reshan Richards, developer of Explain Everything (app available for iPad or Droid). The app makes it easy to create screencasts, slides, drawings and more, along with import and export features. Check out the app and visit the blog http://www.constructivisttoolkit.com/ .

Is it bad that I would like to spend more time doing work for the Human MOOC than my for-credit graduate class? Probably!
MOOCs are Massive Open Online Classes – and they’re FREE! The course I am taking right now is how to humanize the online class experience. Check it out -maybe there’s a class you’re interested in taking. https://www.canvas.net/courses/human-element-an-essential-online-course-component-1
Inside Higher Ed/Times Higher Education reports that the US may be losing ground in the MOOC-for-Credit game
I am thankful to all those who said NO to me. It’s because of them I did it myself.
This quote is attributed to the following in various places around the Web:
I need to dig, because I really like this quote and have no idea who really said it. Someone else was trying to figure out if Einstein really said it by posting to http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=605225. One response attributed it to a simple reading error:
This is being attributed to Einstein on the Internet, but it appears to come from Wayne W. Dyer’s book You’ll See It When You Believe It, page 54, according to Google Books. Dyer does not attribute it to Einstein, but mentions Einstein in the same paragraph.
In my office I have two framed posters. One is a picture of Albert Einstein, beneath which are the words “Great spirits have always encountered violent oppostion from mediocre minds.” The other poster is made up solely of words: “I am grateful to all those people who said no. It is because of them I did it myself.” Great thoughts!
Apparently someone misread this and thought the quote was from Einstein.
Whoever said it. I like it.
