November 19 is a special day for me...
I'm a graduate of the Ed Tech dept. in San Francisco, California and I'm working locally, in San Diego, CA, to promote technology in the classroom. One of my biggest 'things' is to promote the idea of visualization of data, complex and simple, hence the interest in Unified Modeling Language, as a graphical language AND a standard. I 'blow up' pages at http://www.touchgraph.com/TGGoogleBrowser with great pleasure and have tried for some time to find people interested in doing something very similar with a UML / Wiki combination for topic maps and the like.
I'd like to use wikis in my classroom and...I know that wikipedia is not a dictionary...But, I'm looking for a wiki dictionary for english and/or spanish. I'm also of the mind that wikis could in fact replace textbooks.
just a bit of my bio... lived in Paris, San Francisco, Austria, Taiwan, South Korea as well traveled Europe and Asia extensively. Feel free to use the talk page!
ck this out, for all of you folks that want a 'new look on things' http://dotolearn.com/games/facialExpressions/face.htm
But this is what keeps me up at night sometimes... http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/demo/en/Wiki%20Based%20Visual%20IDE in the not too distant future we will be able to develop and code and communicate via a graphics based IDE[?] that uses distributed programming.
For my fellow wikipedians, when I read 'help' at the top of the screen now I think, "Where?", as in the reflex to review and edit.
cheers Dennis
