    About Findability

    As 21st century education adapts to its online future, the edu sector is learning to work under the network laws that make the best study knowledge findable. Findability emerges naturally from educational resources embedded in a network when these 7 elements are present.

    Digital - Educational materials that are printed are outside of the digital online commons where findability arises.

    Unbundled - Findability works bests with the smallest pieces of content, so bundles like curricula, courses, and PDFs stifle findabiity.

    Open - To be findable, content must be open in the one Web global commons, with no barriers of cost, subscription, or copyright.

    SEOed - Search Engine Optimization with keywords and linking attracts search engine spiders and boosts rankings on search engine results pages.

    Juiced - Webpages getting higher search engine page ranks from links by educators judging their content as superior.

    Networked - Nodes of learning content are syndicated (RSS), virally spread, and connected into social networks.

    Mobilized - Nodes of learning content are becoming findable to millions, and potentially billions, of new learners by being optimized for mobile phones.

    The learn nodes posted on this blog are models that show how you can increase findabiity for open educational resources.

  • The LEARN NODE is a tool for creating findability

    The illustration below shows a learn node, which you can use as an educator to make webpages more findable. The top little circles illustrate links out to content nodes related to the subject of the large circle. Bottom left, experts connect to the node affirming its quality - giving it juice. Bottom right, a student connects to the node to learn the subject of its content.

Learn Node: Clustering hadron colliders and neutrino factories

Print This Post Print This Post -

This learn node about the future of particle physics is a webpage on the Interactions.org Particle Physics News and Resources website. The introduction to the page explains:

The Future
Particle physics has reached an extraordinary moment in the quest to understand the universe and its physical laws. Profound new questions have emerged to capture the human imagination. To address these questions, scientists all over the world are collaborating to imagine, design and build the particle physics of the future.

The page offers links to hadron colliders, linear colliders, neutrino factories and other key places where the where the work is being done to on the particle physics quest. The result is a learn node in an online open cluster that you can explore to learn about particle physics from the scientists and institutions who are participating in this extraordinary moment in the quest they leading.
