HOW TO START A WIKI (cómo hacer un Wiki)

En el Link de arriba pueden comenzar el aprendizaje para hacer su propio WIKI. Yo me fui al Wiki Free de riters.com y allí sin necesidad de hacer una cuenta fui directamente a poner el nombre de mi WIKI que ahora flamantemente aparece en :

El WIKI de askain

De todos modos como el WIKI es un hoja Web basada en hypertexto colaborativo, con énfasis en lograr un fácil acceso para modificar páginas e informar. Ud. puede editar cualquier página al hacer Click en la parte donde se señala EDITAR.

Un Tutorial acerca de Blogs y de Wikis

En el link de arriba veran un tutorial sobre los conceptos acerca del blog y el Wiki y su uso en la docencia.

Lo que me pareció interesante es la recomendaciones sobre Wikis, por ejemplo estos son los enlaces que se aconsejan allí:

WIKI RITERS FREE

Welcome to the Riters.com entirely free wiki farm service. Make an entirely free wiki, Browse existing wikis at Riters.com, or find out more About Us.

WIKI SWIKI FREE

What is Swiki.net?

Swiki.net is based on the original WikiWikiWeb concept by Ward Cunningham. This hosted implementation is based on the Swiki implementation of WikiWikiWeb.

Swiki.net is a hosted website for groups of people with a common interest.  Anyone who has access to your web site may add content directly through a web browser.  This means that a user may edit any web page on the web site or even add or delete web pages.  Because you can do this directly through your web browser, you do not need to have any computer or internet programming knowledge or any special software. 

Simply click on the "Edit" icon on any page and begin typing your changes as if the page were in a word processor on your computer!  You can then create new pages, upload documents, and add text, images and links.  This extremely powerful feature allows true collaboration among groups of people as they share knowledge and keep track of resources.


WIKI SEEDWIKI FREE AND PAY

It's simply the best way for groups to create, share and publish all kinds of information together.

You can begin with a single seedwiki page. Your wiki will grow quickly as people add more content and more pages.

Take a quick tour of seedwiki features, or read the seedwiki faq, then sign up today for a free or pro-level seedwiki account.

El Contador de Palabras del BNC

Quiero compartir con ustedes un invento informático desarrollado por el British National Corpus (BNC-Oxford University Computing Services) y reflejado en el Blog del norteamericano Jonathan J. Harris, es decir un contador de palabras que aparece arriba en mi link. Ese contador procesa 86.800 palabras en inglés y por ejemplo la palabra SONIC corresponde al 21% del total, pues se lleva el premio con 18.524 veces.

Igualmente el BNC ha lanzado al mercado su BNC Baby: is a collection of corpora and software designed to demonstrate the full potential of corpus linguistics in the teaching of English language and literature. Puede verlo en este link:

Blogging Clicks With Colleges

Interactive Web Pages (the blogs) Changing Class Participation. Susan Kinzie (washington Post Staff Writer).Now blogs are morphing into the next big thing on campus: wikis.

The wiki, which got its name from the Hawaiian word for "quick," is the scrappy little brother to the blog, an interactive Web page that can be changed by anyone who stumbles upon it. While blogs let people publish their thoughts online, wikis take things a step further, creating freewheeling, collaborative communities: Students can edit one another's work, bounce ideas around or link to infinite other Web sites.

OURMEDIA

Ourmedia es un lugar interesante. Allí se alojan para ser distribuidos free muchos trabajos en multimedia como videos clip, fotografías, imágenes, audio. Entonces: Join the personal media revolution.

This links : Code 2


What's going on here?

Lawrence Lessig first published Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace in 1999. After five years in print and five years of changes in law, technology, and the context in which they reside, Code needs an update. But rather than do this alone, Professor Lessig is using this wiki to open the editing process to all, to draw upon the creativity and knowledge of the community. This is an online, collaborative book update; a first of its kind.

America' s New Class Division

By Tim Egan
New York Times correspondent

For many young Americans, getting a degree is seen as the only passport to success.
With a shortage of places, parents are adopting ever more desperate measures to get their kids into a top university. Timothy Egan suggests that a new class division is emerging in America - between the graduates and the fast food workers.

Cognitive Assistant That Learns and Organizes

SRI International (Artificial Intelligence Center) is leading the development of new software that could revolutionize how computers support decision-makers. El proyecto se llama :
  • CALO
  • It is CALO

    Under the Personalized Assistant that Learns (PAL) program of  the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), we are working with SRI and other team-members on the CALO (Cognitive Agent that Learns and Organizes) project. The goal of this project is to create personal digital assistants that will learn from observation, experience, and by interacting with and being advised by its human users. These agents can be told what to do, and they will know and will be able to explain what they are doing. They will be able to respond to surprise in a robust manner, and they will interact with each other to handle a broad range of inter-related decision-making tasks. These computational agents will have the ability to engage in and lead routine tasks, and to assist when the unexpected happens.

    Auricle

    Earlier this week I focused on podcasts and raw MP3s with high production values, some of which originated from modest production facilities. Some of the more interesting memes in these podcasts arose from recordings of online or telephone audio interviews and commentary. But recording online audio interactions can be a bit of a complex black art and so, in this article, I introduce a promising new easy-to-use solution.

    Dialogue on Learning

    Recent advances in the brain sciences and technology have created an opportunity for educators to unlock the extraordinary potential of every learner. We have seized that opportunity, examined research-based learning theory, and developed an integrated theoretical and practical model for the development of curriculum, methodology, and assessment in the community college. Our goal is the creation of meaningful learning experiences equally accessible by all students, regardless of wide differences in culture, information processing, learning styles, and individual strengths and challenges.

    Two important links about statistic

    The basic principles of the statistics and the best Link on a compilation of softwares appear immediately:
  • Statistics

  • Statistics Softwares


  • This is one of my areas of interest
  • A Wiki

    A wiki is a website that allows a user to add content, as on an internet forum, but also allows that content to be edited by anybody. Wiki is a collaborative software used to crate hyperlinks between wiki pages. Please look:
  • SEEDWIKI
  • And the directory
  • WIKI Directory


  • what is seedwiki?

    seedwiki is a way for any group to create, share and publish information effortlessly.
    You start by creating shared web pages that everyone can edit. It's as easy as typing in MS Word. Everyone can make page changes, add new pages, and link to other wiki pages (and other websites). When you click save, you see the results of your work instantly.

    There's no simpler way to create and collaborate on the web. And, seedwiki puts more power in your hands than any other wiki environment.

    Now you can see an example of the Wiki in
  • Link Education


  • Once a teacher said following
    no can be learned
    without a dosis
    of interest and persistence
    which is a truth as large as a temple

    Web Note

  • WEB-NOTE

  • This link is a WebNote that allows a user to add content and use it all the time.La tecnología de las Notas en una Web es importante para poder tener presente un recordatorio de un evento.

    The trackback (at Holoscan)

    The best way to activate trackback is through
  • HOLOSCAN
  • because in that Link we can find the codes to be able to use trackback.

    Renata Suzuki' article (Sophia University-Japan)

    Renata Suzuki's article is unique to these other works because it discusses blogging in the familiar context of diary writing, and then shows how a diary in the form of a blog (allowing others to comment on the 'diary') can be useful as a qualitative research tool. Permission to quote comments made in the researcher's blog has been granted by those mentioned by name. (Vance Stevens, Editor)
