I’ve just spent the last few days overhauling the Learning Tools Directory. So I’ve just rebuilt this year’s Directory – which still lists well over 2,00o tools. Over the last year there has been quite a lot of change one way or another in terms of tools. MORE

I tried figuring out how to set up a virtual directory , but the initial efforts failed and monkeying with apache files scares me. No directory browsing for you! (To <script type=”text/javascript” src=” /js/Your_File_Name.js”></script> Create a subfolder in the directory where your HTML file is and name it “js” Using your favorite text editor create a file called whatever you want to call it, with a “js” extension.

That means the directory from which I’m running my JavaScript and PHP is on my hard drive. Put it in the same directory as your PHP script. If it’s in the same directory as this HTML file, you don’t have to monkey with a path name. Perhaps you’d like to post to your WordPress blog from an app that isn’t WordPress. I know I do. I write most of my posts in an editor (javascript + php) I’ve worked on for over ten years. MORE

As the number of options grow, the need for directories grows. I'm going to be moderating a CalTech MIT Enterprise Forum that looks at Entrepreneurial Opportunities in eLearning - basically where do we mutually see a good opportunity to create a successful eLearning Startup. MORE

When I was updating the Directory of Learning Tools for 2011, I reviewed each and everyone of the 2,000+ tools in the list.

I and others argued that the lack of mention in the main directories and references mean that she isn't. At 1401 on the 12th August back in 2006 I made my first edit to the Wikipedia, all to the knowledge management article. MORE

In the list of Live tools in my Directory of Learning tools you can find nearly 120 tools for web, audio and video conferencing, screen sharing as well as accessing/ building virtual worlds.

Rafe Needleman did a nice analysis JOBS Act: 5 things to look forward to (and 5 to dread) in which he notes: Directories and “portals” of crowdfunding opportunities will be severely limited as to the information they can display to users, since they’ll be forbidden from making recommendations on investments. The JOBS crowdfunding Act is a great step forward, but the potential of the entire scheme is undermined by the lack of reputation measures. MORE

When we have an information need, we might need directories to people with various expertise (associated with Communities of Practice, presumably). A number of years ago, I discussed a valued model that talks about how we solve problems in the world. MORE

Fortunately, most are not intractable, but all are difficult to resolve and, some, to implement: Should the DPLA aggregate content or be a directory? But maybe it should be more of a directory. But being a directory is not as glamorous or useful. I got to attend the Digital Public Library of America ‘s first workshop yesterday. It was an amazing experience that left me with the best kind of headache: Too much to think about! Too many possibilities for goodness! MORE

I was interviewing a particular executive about their "mobile strategy," and when he was discussing what he was imagining they would be supporting, he discussed capabilities that could only be supported by a native application (harnessing sensors and accessing local directories). MORE

Alternatively, when you get to this point, just download the.dll directly from here and save it to your Audacity directory. It will save the required.dll files to the Winamp directory. MORE

The Web does have a rudimentary directory with the Domain Name Service (DNS), but beyond that, everything to the right of the first single slash is a big “whatever”. Lately podcasting (with OPML-organized directories) has come into the mix as well. MORE

An interesting other cut is that you can do something contextual for any or all of these areas as well: you could provide a contextually relevant or local directory of mentors for formal social or collaborators for performance support. MORE

But there is not yet a single directory that taps into the rich range of free an open learning opportunities on the web Brief quotable answers to a request for input to a forthcoming article on open online learning.

Jane Hart’s Directory of Learning Tools 2011 (13 categories). Tweet We discussed social learning in the enterprise today with an interesting case study on social learning (without technology) by PwC. At the end of the day everyone was asked what pressing issue they would like to discuss for tomorrow. The questions were grouped into five areas, and I’ve added some resources for each: PKM. Article on PKM and working smarter through networked learning. MORE

What used to be called Radio (iTunes’ collection of webcasting radio stations), which had already been pushed down one directory level to “Music,” is now available only under a new button called “Internet.” Radio used to be wireless audio on a broadcast band. That’s still the short version of every dictionary definition. But now radio is streamed audio. MORE

Interactions such as patient check-in, directory information, patient location, and describing symptoms at an urgent care need a more modern approach. Touch screen installations are by no means new. We have been using them in airports and ATMs for years now. MORE

It presumed a directory structure, inherited from Unix (e.g. (Cross posted from this at Facebook). In Snow on the Water I wrote about the ‘low threshold of death” for what media folks call “content” — which always seemed to me like another word for packing material. But its common parlance now. For example, a couple days ago I heard a guy on WEEI, my fave sports station in Boston, yell “Coming up! Twenty-five straight minutes of content!” MORE

I just checke, and the same thing happens with all files from all directories on all drives. Made a dawn run to the nearby Peets for some dry cappuccinos, and was bathed in glow on my return by one of the most spectacular sunrises I have ever seen. It was post-peak when I got back (to the place where I’m staying in Gold River, California), but with some underexposure and white balance tweaking, I was able to get the shots in this set here. Alas, the shot above is not in that set. MORE

Yammer also serves as a company directory in which every employee has a profile and as a knowledge base where past conversations can be easily accessed and referenced. If you’re assembling a far-flung collaborative team or bringing together a community of practice, here’s a way to help people stay connected. Yammer is like a private Twitter. Instead of Twitter’s question, “What are you doing?&# , Yammer asks “What are you working on?&#. MORE

The use of LDAP to access existing internal directories means that people do not need to populate profile pages, overcoming the hurdle that many corporate social networks have stumbled over. Earlier this week I gave the opening keynote at the Sydney launch of Tibbr , the new social enterprise offering from TIBCO. I hope to have the video of my presentation up before long. MORE

For non-paying users, there is this, from the index page as it appears on a browser that doesn’t know I’m a Pro member: Smile. Everyone gets a free terabyte. Biggr. MORE

Probably one of the better sources on this is Jane Hart’s Instructional Tools Directory. I was just asked about trends in open source for eLearning and particularly open source eLearning tools. You can find a long list of tools broken into authoring tools, games/simulations, quiz/test tools, social media, delivery platforms, tracking and whether they support mobile. In addition, she indicates if they are free or cost money – which is not quite the same thing as open source. MORE
