Towards an Open Rubric Part Two [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 4:30 AM | Education, Learning, Technology, rubrics
In part one, I related the shambling development project to build an online generalized rubric builder/application tool, codename:”Rubricator”, at the IST Solutions Institute at Penn State from 2007-2008. The official project met an untimely demise as a result of a college reorganization. While this certainly wasn’t the first technology project to be offed by a [...]

Meet the New Blog, Same As The Old Blog [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 4:30 AM | BlogCFC, Wordpress
I spent a fair amount of time this past weekend working on this site. While the new look is probably obvious, the more significant change was the move to Wordpress. When set up this blog in 2005, I was spending a significant amount of time developing Web applications in ColdFusion. Though I was working on several [...]

Visualize JSON [+]
Andy Jarrett | 3/16/10 4:30 AM | Javascript, json
Working a little bit like <CFDUMP >, JSON Visualization allows you to quickly view your structures outline. Also from the left hand menu there are some basic options to manipulate/preserve the data futher. If you want to test it out below is a block of JSON from Wikipedia { "firstName": "John", "lastName": "Smith", "age": 25, "address": { "streetAddress": "21 2nd Street", "city": "New York", "state": "NY", "postalCode": "10021" }, "phoneNumber": [ { "type": "home", "number": "212 555-1234" }, { "type": "fax", "number": "646 555-4567" } ], "newSubscription": false, "companyName": null }

Speaking tonight on the Semantic Web [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 12:45 AM | Java, Semantic Web, Software Development, The New Web
The Semantic Web has been a strong interest of mine over the last two years. When I came across RDF and OWL through a research project at IST back in 2008, a Web Standard no less, I’d somehow been completely oblivious to its existence. If you’ve never heard of the Semantic Web, here’s a quick intro [...]

Towards an Open Rubric Part One [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 12:45 AM | Adobe MAX, Education, Learning, Semantic Web
Though it seems like just a short time, almost three years ago my old workgroup at Penn State set out to do something crazy: help our faculty deal with an overnight tripling of class sizes in our college. The College of Information Sciences and Technology had been created by University President Graham Spanier in 1999 under [...]

Why many Microformats begin with 'h' [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 12:45 AM | Semantic Web, Web Development
I’ve been spending some quality time with several Microformats as part of my work for DealerPeak. We’ve been adding semantic attributes, including hCard, hProduct, and hListing, to the pages generated by the DealerPeak Automotive Dealership CRM/CMS system. During a recent redesign of the car listing page, I was adding hCard microformat information to the dealer contact [...]

Why Open Rubrics? [+]
Ghosted Notes | 3/16/10 12:45 AM | Learning, Semantic Web, rubrics
In my past few posts, I tried to lay the groundwork for a discussion of an open data model for educational rubrics, something I’ve thought about a lot over the past year. I’ll assume you know what I mean by a rubric; if not there’s a fine summary on Wikipedia. So what do I mean [...]
