Em minha ciber-flânerie matutina tive o prazer de encontrar um dossiê sobre Marshall McLuhan no blog Tecnoarte. Em poucos cliques, cheguei ao documentário abaixo, um verdadeiro presente para os admiradores do sociólogo profeta da aldeia global. O vídeo tem cerca de uma hora e meia de duração e legendas em português.
Neste vídeo Tim Bernes Lee explica o que é “linked data” e fala da sua importância para o futuro da web.
O aperfeiçoamento dessa tecnologia descortinará infinitas possibilidades para a emergência de conhecimento, pois estaremos lidando com um banco de dados em escala planetária.
“Participatory culture shifts the focus of literacy from one of individual expression to community involvement. The new literacies almost all involve social skills developed through collaboration and networking. These skills build on the foundation of traditional literacy, research skills, technical skills, and critical analysis skills taught in the classroom.”

O YouTube agora tem uma seção dedicada exclusivamente à Educação, o YouTube Edu , com conteúdos publicados apenas por universidades.
“More than 100 colleges have set up channels on YouTube, and this week the popular video service unveiled a new section that brings together all of that campus content in one area.
It had been difficult to find college lectures on YouTube, since they are generally far less popular than the site’s humorous and outrageous clips, and so they do not show up in lists of the most viewed videos on the site. Although YouTube has long had an education category, it relies on users who post videos to decide whether to categorize their videos as educational, and as a result the definition of education is very broad. The new YouTube EDU page includes only material submitted by colleges and universities.”
