We were exploring the mechanisms by which water, minerals and sugars move through plants - setting up experiments using dialysis tubing, cooked and raw potatoes, celery and various other objects, and looking at specimens using a microscope. Amid the noisy hubub and laughter of a biology lab class, all of us (yes even me) were dipping in and out of our various digital communities, looking things up on the net, texting people, and playing games while waiting for our experiments to 'brew'.</p> <div class="og_rss_groups"></div><p><a href="http://hastac.org/blogs/klemson/2012/05/23/are-you-game-do-science" target="_blank">read more</a></p> </article> <article> <h1>I'm a total Open Badges n00b!</h1> <p>slgrant — Wed, 23 May 2012 17:10:20 +0000</p> <p><b id="internal-source-marker_0.9629678199999034" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times; font-size: medium; "><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background-color: transparent; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; ">Lots of great content about badges found its way online this month.</span></b></p><div class="og_rss_groups"><ul class="links"><li class="og_links first last"><a href="/groups/badges-lifelong-learning">Badges for Lifelong Learning</a></li> </ul></div><p><a href="http://hastac.org/blogs/slgrant/2012/05/23/im-total-open-badges-n00b-and-we-are-too" target="_blank">read more</a></p> </article> <article> <h1>4chan Article Published: "The House That Fox Built: Anonymous, Spectacle and Cycles of Amplification"</h1> <p>Whitney_Phillips — Sun, 20 May 2012 21:06:42 +0000</p> <p> </p> <p>A pre-proof version of my article "The House That Fox Built: Anonymous, Spectacle and Cycles of Amplification," which was accepted for publication by Television and New Media, is available on UO's scholar's bank.
