The Information Snowflake
I came across The Information Snowflake via a post on elearnspace. George Seimens comments that this model is similar to Bloom’s Taxonomy. On the comments section, some disagreed. One said that this model is about processing, Bloom’s is about probing deeper conceptually. I agree that they are distinct, but I find this model very useful for thinking about the processing. Peter Bailey, who developed this model gives explanations of each facet on his weblog, I, Distributius. There is lots of good reading on this weblog. I’ve got to add this weblog to my list to read. This model could help in our explanations of the value of weblogs to those just beginning the journey. It could be useful in discussions with our students. As I browsed around the weblog, I discovered that it is affiliated with a company, Synop. It is an innovative company specializing in providing solutions and products in all aspects of information management, arechitecture and design. There is a dropdown link that will lead you to other weblogs.
I chuckled when I read Richard BF’s Black hole blogging effects. I wonder if Will will experience something similar when he returns from his blogging hiatus.
