“At the start of an event I’m doc­u­ment­ing I’ll let peo­ple know that I’ll be tak­ing pic­tures, and that I am happy to take pic­tures down, no ques­tions asked, on request. I try to take pic­tures peo­ple will like and I delete pic­tures I doubt peo­ple will dis­like. My aim is that the sub­jects of the pic­tures will either be OK with or happy about the images I pub­lish. I’m stress­ing this because it seems an impor­tant, human point – it falls out­side of the risks you’ve men­tioned but it’s impor­tant to recog­nise the role of feel­ings and emo­tions within the con­struc­tion of other peo­ples dig­i­tal iden­tity. I rarely include the sub­jects full name in any of the pic­ture data – title, tags or other options, although I’m happy to do so – or remove this data – on request.… I also don’t CC my images of peo­ple attend­ing events apart from at the request of the sub­ject.

”…Dur­ing the con­fer­ence, it’s use­ful to eaves­drop on par­al­lel ses­sions that I’m miss­ing by watch­ing the twit­ter stream. And it’s help­ful to be able to look at people’s slides right away, and to find related mate­ri­als that’s men­tioned or writ­ten dur­ing the con­fer­ence. And it’s nice to see pho­tos of the event after­ward, too.

Tag­ging before, dur­ing and after a con­fer­ence is a key tool for using a big con­fer­ence as a kind of host sys­tem a smaller group that wants to con­nect. The eco­nom­ics of face-to-face meet­ings leads to big con­fer­ences. The eco­nom­ics of meaning-making require smaller, but not closed, conversations.

Apart from email, forums, tele­con­fer­ences, mobile phones, and other tech­nolo­gies, tag­ging is use­ful for enabling a small group to use a large con­fer­ence as a plat­form for its own pur­poses. It’s an exam­ple of a tech­nol­ogy that allows the inte­gra­tion across tools by means of a prac­tice and a protocol ”

“At the end of the day, it isnt about the tech­nol­ogy.… It isnt about the com­puter replac­ing the book. It is about a world where stu­dents learn with a book in one hand and a mouse in the other, rather than one where they are taught that book cul­ture is so frag­ile it needs to be pro­tected from the computer.

Jenna McWilliams, until recently, part of our Project NML staff, writes pow­er­fully about read­ing with a mouse in your hand. She tells us that teach­ers often encour­age stu­dents to read with a pen­cil in their hands — not sim­ply let­ting the words pass over their eye­balls but crit­i­cally engag­ing with them, tak­ing notes, ask­ing ques­tions, cri­tiquing as they go. When stu­dents read with a mouse in their hands, they take this one step fur­ther: they assume that they must actively respond to whats been put in front of them; they are poised to par­tic­i­pate; they take respon­si­bil­ity over the qual­ity of infor­ma­tion and cor­rect it pub­li­cally if it is wrong. ”
