The Open Space of DHC
2007-11-15 02:40:00 So I've finally gotten access to CHC. My laptop doesn't let me in, but my other computer does. I keep getting "Page Not Found" errors. It has nothing to do with my CHC account. Very strange.I haven't gotten too far in, but one thing is clear; there have been some very strange goings ons between Haterz. The bannings, "sissyfights" and other weird happenings detract from the whole anti-Casey vibe, but it's bound to happen in any community comprised of very different individuals.Then there's Casey's blog du jour. Will my comment get moderated? Should I even be posting there? Will other Haterz get mad at me for commenting? It's draining.Cote's site has returned to its pre-Casey splendor with a few more visitors and inbound links, but it's no longer the place to talk about Casey and I think Rob likes it that way. The one thing I liked about that place was the natural flow of comments.This leads me to my point - Don't Hate Casey has morphed itself...I don't know how...into t...

Open Space: E-Portfolios
2007-10-14 21:00:00 Nearly two weeks ago at the Progressive Educators' Network Conference in San Francisco held the Whitcomb Hotel (October 4 – 6, 2007), a group of educators came together in an “Open Space†dialogue to discuss portfolios in schools. Most of the folks that came to the open space session had some knowledge of portfolio assessment, yet the groups’ familiarity with using portfolios to assess students ran the gamut from “we use portfolios a lot†to “I’ve heard a bit about portfolio as an assessment tool and I’d like to learn more.â€This particular blog entry attempts to start the conversation about portfolios between those people who want to enter the dialogue in this “Open Source†community. By Open Source, we mean anyone is free to join in the conversation (in a respectful way of course). Eventually, we’ll talk about moving traditional class content into portfolios. Later, we’ll talk about e-portfolios (electronic portfolios) and give some ideas about how...
