Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century
See on Scoop.it – M-learning, E-Learning, and Technical Communications
Danielle M. Villegas‘s insight:
This is a fantastic whitepaper about the value of participatory culture in elearning and other digital means of education. This is very much the approach I come from in my own standpoint of using social media in elearning and mlearning, and just gathering information in general. The document is not light reading, but it’s very well-written, and seems fairly comprehensive. A must-read for those who are in education, elearning or mlearning. Really good stuff.

It’s official: Apple sells more computers than all Windows PCs combined
See on Scoop.it – M-learning, E-Learning, and Technical Communications
Apple’s Mac desktops and laptops may still count for a fraction of the global market for PCs, but when you tally up all the computers (iPhones, iPads, etc.) on which people actually get things done, the number of computers sold by Apple exceeds the number of Windows-based PCs shipped worldwide in the fourth quarter of…
Danielle M. Villegas‘s insight:
This is important, because these numbers are dependent on Apple’s mobile sales as well as their desktop/laptop sales. To me, it’s proof that this is a more mobile world, and more have to catch up to it. It’s amazing to me that more isn’t being done to create content for mobile at this point–more than what’s already out there. When it comes to my desktop/laptop, I’m still firmly a PC gal on Windows 7 at the moment. But for mobile, as regular readers here know, I’m firmly an Apple gal, and can’t imagine using anything else. I’m not saying that other things are bad, but I do love my iPhone and iPad immensely and have had less issues with them as compared to my husband and son who have Android devices. Just sayin’.

UX the Bruce Lee Way | UX Magazine
See on Scoop.it – M-learning, E-Learning, and Technical Communications
As a UX professional I take inspiration from a great many things. Since I’m also a big pop culture geek, that’s the biggest well I draw from. I’ve read a lot of entertainment biographies lately, and the latest was about famed martial artist and actor Bruce Lee. As I was reading The Bruce Lee Story (written by his wife) I was pleased to note that he, too, believed in borrowing ideas and techniques from other fields.
Danielle M. Villegas‘s insight:
Thanks to Rick Sapir for posting this on Google+. As a big Bruce Lee fan and as a "retired" martial artist myself (black belt in taekwondo), I was interested to see how the author of this article would tie together UX strategy and Bruce Lee philosophies in his analogy, and he did an incredibly excellent job of it. Definitely read this. It’s easy reading, but it’s intuitive reading, too.
