Cogitation of a Head Geek: Questions about the new Google Terms of Service and GAFE
http://blog.headgeek.org/2013/11/questions-about-new-google-terms-of.html
Cogitation of a Head Geek. Sunday, November 17, 2013. Questions about the new Google Terms of Service and GAFE. As you may already be aware, Google has recently made some changes to the Terms of Service for their Consumer Services. These changes allow users' Google profile information (name, 1s, reviews, comments) to appear in "Shared Endorsements". While Google has separate Terms of Service that covers Google Apps for Education. When the "Shared Endorsements" feature is enabled for Google Apps domains, ...

Cogitation of a Head Geek: August 2012
http://blog.headgeek.org/2012_08_01_archive.html
Cogitation of a Head Geek. Friday, August 17, 2012. A Replacement for the Google Listen app. I've been testing three different apps; DoggCatcher. Unfortunately, none of these apps are completely free (BeyondPod has a limited free version), so I needed to shell out a little money to give them all a fair test. Normally, I wouldn't buy an app just to test it out, but because podcast discovery and playback is so important to me, I made an exception. Posted by Paul Barrette. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Cogitation of a Head Geek: Schools are NOT coffee shops
http://blog.headgeek.org/2013/02/schools-are-not-coffee-shops.html
Cogitation of a Head Geek. Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Schools are NOT coffee shops. Lately, I've seen an increasingly popular meme on Twitter and "edtech" blogs echoing the same call to action; “if Starbucks and McDonald’s have the infrastructure to offer open WiFi access, why can’t schools? What are the district’s responsibilities and capabilities to provide support? I would surmise that Starbucks and McDonald’s have much larger legal budgets than most K12 public school districts, so they can be ...

What are some strategies for schools and district to use to evaluate the applications, services and tools that are being used with students? Who is responsible for agreeing to an application's Terms of Service before students are allowed to use it for learning? That has some te...
