A few posts back I asked for some help to Convince Curmudgeons with Comments — this is in reference to a few vocal critics of our online report tool for a faculty summer project professional growth program who did not want copies of their projects to be cross listed in our Maricopa Learning eXchange.

Convince Curmudgeons with Comments?

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this September 15th, 2005 10:16 pm

Hey, want to do me and the Maricopa Learning eXchange (MLX) a favor? Would you like to see something positive actually come out of comments? Read on. The set up might be long, but bear with me. I’d like to convince some of our faculty the worth of sharing their work, their efforts online, [...]

My First (sloppy) ScreenCast

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this May 12th, 2005 4:50 pm

So it was time to put my money where my snout was… After waffling about screencasting, I decided to give it a go. Downloading the Windows Media Encoder was not too bad. I played a bit, not really sure of the various settings for the encoding.
Anyhow, I recorded an 11 minute quick attempt at showing [...]

Return of Biff Cantrell (Blabbing about RSS and Maricopa Learning eXchange).

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this May 11th, 2005 5:04 pm

He’s baaaaaaaaaaack. That Biff Cantrell dude who chalked up a March 2004 hour long Breezed tour of the Maricopa Learning eXchange (MLX).
He chopped out a lot of stuff, updated some images and links, and created a mini tour of the different kinds of RSS feeds in the MLX as a demo for the May 17 [...]

First Non Maricopa MLX Peek

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this May 5th, 2005 1:42 pm

I have been habitually behind in getting our open Source Maricopa Learning eXchange (MLX) into shape for others to use. As some have chided me, there is not much up at SourceForge but a place holder. We have an open demo version that will fold in the new changes as they continue to develop; but [...]

Shelley Is On It: “Using RSS Feeds in English 102″ MLX Package

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this February 28th, 2005 6:20 pm

One of my colleagues has gotten bit severely by the weblog / RSS fever— this is a good thing. Shelley teaches English at Mesa Community College and is experimenting this semester with having her student review resources via Bloglines, and she is crafting an extra credit assignment for them to post entries in the Bloglines [...]

MLX Track Spam: The Annihilator

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this February 20th, 2005 1:09 am

It’s been a while since the spam roaches attached the Trackbacks on the Maricopa Learning eXchange, but I guess they had some extra time after recess to splat their PPC (porn, pills, casino) links into the MLX Sharebacks. I am still resisting closing it down completely, but likely will, as no one really sends non-spam [...]

Wow… Adunct Faculty Jumps Feet First Into MLX and ePortfolio

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this January 28th, 2005 4:56 pm

CDB readers may know of the struggles written here to solicit Maricopa people to share their instructional materials and teaching ideas in our Maricopa Learning eXchange (MLX) which is at almost 1100 items. Our efforts have included bribery and competition, but have yet to embrace physical threats. If I had a buck for every time [...]

Putting MLX Feeds Where My Mouth Is

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this January 28th, 2005 4:35 pm

I recently wrote some criticism of views that RSS feeds are “only for new stuff”, and given that I had a request today for a randomized Maricopa Learning eXchange feed, it was time to put my feeds where my mouth is/was.
Before today, the feeds we generate as fixed static files (updated every hours as a [...]

When Projects Rain, It Pours

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this January 12th, 2005 6:12 pm

Yes, what is with the weather? Even here in Arizona, the last two weeks have brought tremendous rain to the desert, doubling are average, flooding the dry washes. Up north, the mountain tops are getting snow by the foot.
And this week, the projects here habe been coming down in torrential buckets (as opposed to buckets [...]
