RSS club meeting 10

Yana and Scott participated in our RSS club meeting today. We caught up with the most recent entries in the Drexel CoAS E-Learning blog:

I started with bringing everyone up to date with the EduFrag project. We now have separate workshops on Mondays to develop Unreal Tournament applications in education.

We discussed converting e-mail alerts to RSS feeds using Blogger and I showed an example of this for a Google alert search of "organic chemistry".

I played a little snippet of Kevin Owens' screencast for introducing students the admission process at Drexel.

Finally we had a good conversation about the role of peer review and the responsibility of the reader in authenticating scholarship (in both science and humanities).

Here is the screencast mp3 podcast
