Meet Joe Cool, aka student researcher 2.0
Joe Cool researches here...
...here
...and here on his laptop
these are Joe Cool's groupmembers for a school project
They don't have time to meet togetherat the same place and time
so Joe Cool and his research partners find different ways of sharing their information
This is Marci, one of Joe's research partners. Joe subscribes to her blog & feels like he knows what she's thinking and where her research is headed
Joe Cool also has a research blog wherehe posts his research and about his process
Joe Cool uses Google Reader to keepup-to-date with current research
Joe Cool uses NoodleTools to store his research references and online Notecards. He has citations and notes for books, journals, websites, and online
videos to share with team members online
Joe Cool assigns tags to referencesfor easy search & retrieval
When they are done they can copy their citation lists and Notecards to each other & merge their lists, and share with their teacher online or print out to hand in
Joe Cool likes tools like Google Reader & Noodletools because they're portable, easy to use,
and can be accessed from any computerwith internet access - they are in the cloud!
Joe Cool & his group use Google Docs to make collaboration within the group even easier
Joe Cool stores & tags all his bookmarks on Diigo, a social bookmarking site. Everyone can see them…and he can see everyone else’s from any computer
with internet access
Digest of Internet Information, Groups and Other stuff
Joe Cool can create a group within Diigo just for his research group, to make it easier to store and find the
links
his tags highlight his interests & stuff he’s keeping an eye on, he can see who else is interested in the same
things by exploring tags
this is Will, Joe Cool’s teacher & mentor
Will usually has lots to say, so he creates audio podcasts which are published in First Class
and can be aggregated in iTunes
When a new podcast is available from Will’s blog, Joe Cool can listen to it on his computer,
or upload the mp3 file to his iPod
Joe Cool uses these tools through his browser(image from VisualBlooms)
and other tools to communicate,collaborate & create content
Ask Joe Cool what Research 2.0 is,he’d say he hates buzz words
but it’s Social Software that promotescollaboration & dissemination
