The 2009 Horizon Report is the sixth annual report in the series. The report is produced again in 2009 as a collaboration between the New Media Consortium and the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI), an EDUCAUSE program.</p> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/38127 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/38127 <p>After four months of spirited discussion, the EDUCAUSE teaching and learning community has voted on the, "Top Teaching and Learning Challenges, 2009."

Live weblinks to example applications are provided in each section, as well as to additional readings. http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/2087 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/2087 Proposals due January 23.<br /> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/2241 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/2241 A nice 2 page pamphlet describing social bookmarking. Clear and concise.<br /> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/474 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/474 <p>An H2O playlist is a shared list of readings and other content about a topic of intellectual interest.&nbsp; it is a simple yet powerful way to group and exchange useful links to information -- online and offline.</p><p>I saw a presentation at Educause about this and talked to these guys.&nbsp; It is an open source project in java/tomcat.&nbsp; Really very similar to TagIt, but it is presented in the context playlists.&nbsp; Also, cool idea of 'influence' rather than subjective ratings like in TagIt... <br /> </p>
