Nice, short 2-page information briefs on emerging learning technologies like Wikis, Facebook, Digital Storytelling, Creative Commons, Blogs, YouTube, Google Earth, Wikipedia, Clickers, Virtual Worlds, Mashups....you name it.

Check them out - http://www.educause.edu/7ThingsYouShouldKnowAboutSeries/7495

  • Who's doing it?
  • How does it work?
  • Why is it significant?
  • What are the downsides?
  • Where is it going?
  • What are the implications for teaching and learning?
