As a review of week 6, I had some time off and enjoyed a nice staycation. Looking forward to digging back into the course this week. Several students started discussing the upcoming assignment, and one of the posts by Lauren C was really interesting, the idea of collection versus curation. I’ll be looking into this more closely as we go through this week and the next as we get closer to the next deadline date. As what I am more aware of, collection would be gathering a group of objects that have some type of theme together, where curation would be isolating specific elements from the overall materials based on predetermined characteristics. For the upcoming Knowledge Sharing project, I would like to incorporate my love of books into the project in some manner, and I will investigate a few options for the project with the upcoming readings.
I found myself collecting tools in Evernote, just dumping notes in there quite chaotically. I started reading one of Dennen’s articles and immediately stopped reading, went into Evernote, and organized EVERYTHING. It felt so good. This is my experience with curating😊
