Greg McVerryBaby steps for now, just providing my students the space to shape and call their own changes learning for the better, but that doesn't mean I ain't excited for the future.
Greg McVerry@kbaxter I will eventually do this in #IndieWeb learning environments we are building. Combining all the existing parsers with some of what we have learned in essay scoring and HTML in I think can create some easy tutorial bots to improve writing.

Greg McVerryHey #edu307 and #edu405 below are links to many of the slidedecks I have curated and created over the years. I wish I was better at knowing who made what originally but images and videos and slides I found got mismatched together. I will record videos for some of these throughout the week but here you go: Workshop Methods https://docs.google.com/presentation
Greg McVerryWow #edu307 here is a great quote round-up: https://meagansliteracylog.wordpress.com/2019/02/01/what-is-childrens-literature-thoughts-and-reactions/ no matter how you choose to present your synthesis post that is what I want to people: people grappling with meaning.
Greg McVerryHey #edu307 Here is the module II kick off video: https://archive.org/details/EDU307Module2KickOff
Greg McVerryMy broke down dishwasher and our washing machine churning away outside my office door will be the soundtrack of the semester. I can't record when folks sleep in the morning and can't stay awake until the house is quiet. It beats HVAC my office though
Greg McVerryHey #edu407 here is our module walk through, please make sure you have set up your blog and have finished the first module: https://archive.org/details/edSp19Module2KickOff
Greg McVerryOops I sent out a link to my staging server...I mean @glitch...I mean my staging server... here is correct link https://jgregorymcverry.com/opensourceblogging.html but seriously open to topic sections for blogging to support open source
Greg McVerryI have been asked by many #foss #indieweb @mozilla friends to continue my series on blogging in open source communities. I threw these posts up for @sunnydeveloper in a few days so still rough: https://jgmac1106homepage.glitch.me/opensourceblogging.html but what other topics am I missing? What would people want?

Greg McVerry@petermolnar @cscarven So I spent 14 days this summer and worked with the #IndieWeb community to learn (auto-didactic learning a myth...community is the curriculum). and then spun up course template and built a blog. So my value=my fun=my learning
Greg McVerryAnd then I learned about microformats and I was sold. You mean all this worked and it right in the HTML!! I can hit source code and read people's websites again!!!! Wow did I miss that!!!, so tired of the gobbily gook of frameworksn and hidden data.
Greg McVerry@petermolnar @cscarven Worse, everyone in metadata edu space was just talking and building vocabularies (bigger and bigger) but nobody did anything. Then I discovered microformats and there was thmassive community aligned to my values that had tools I could use today
Greg McVerryWhen I wanted to move all my classes onlien I started with WordPress, when I moved to straight HTML I wanted metadata, I looked at RDFD, I looked at all the learning vocabularies in schema.org...I couldn't do any of it.
Greg McVerry@petermolnar @cscarven But for real life, right now benefits for me...they are almost endless. Check out how cool blogging is again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwECN4uVuHg&t=56s and as a teacher I can do thing like webemention badges: https://edu407.jgregorymcverry.com/badges/helloworld.html
Greg McVerryMore importantly building a web built on HTML/CSS provides the greatest access to developers across the global south who can't keep up with the latest and greatest of frameworks or the wswitch in metadata at the whim of large search engines.
Greg McVerry@petermolnar @cscarven yes I was too harsh but I was trying to explain you will find a bias to keeping metadata in HTML in #IndieWeb. That is THE benefit. That real people can read it. that a 25 old page will behave the exact same way it did two decades ago.
Greg McVerry@dajbelshaw @LGZReader @bonniestewart Here is a little video I made how I connect criteria, evidence and task when using badges for assessment https://archive.org/details/TasksCriteria
