One more aha after revisiting this piece: This supports my belief that curating is different from simply collecting information--or "doing research." I love the comment about allowing the reader to enter into conversation with writers of the texts. It is the social aspect that is so very important to the curating project - sharing with a broad audience, yes - but more than that--- conversation!

An absolutely significant skill in any research or investigation, for educators and learners in the digital age - the curation of content- with a clear focus or question in mind, the capacity to target a search field, sift through, reflect on and make decisions about the most suitable resource or evidence to use. What a great learning experience.

La curación de contenidos abre una nueva puerta al aprendizaje y es que nos volvemos partícipes de la cadena, cuando nos detenemos a clasificar, analizar y publicar los contenidos que son más afines y relevantes según nuestras necesidades.

Here's an inspiring and insightful article by Sally Whiting on ContentsMagazine analyzing the role of the archivist and the traits and responsibilities that make his work so valuable to content producers. She writes: "Applying archival principles to content strategy makes for solid content—I can demonstrate this, and I exercise it in my work." As content curators will increasingly need to learn more about archiving, organizing and preserving what they curate, this article provides an inspiring set of considerations about the key value of context and provenance. In addition she poses some important questions about what could actually be done by better curating our own content archives: "Archives are accustomed to a passive role, asking reflectively what their patrons want to find. As they work to help researchers tell their stories, it’s easy for archives to forget to keep shaping their own." Inspiring. Rightful. 8/10 Full article: http://contentsmagazine.com/articles/digital-archives-the-content-strategist/ (Image credit: girl picking from the books - Shutterstock)

Since graduating from library school, I’ve fielded occasional questions about archiving “as a professional in the field.” Then comes the second question, “So, what kind of archive do you work in?” But I don’t. Although I was trained as an archivist and care deeply about archives, I’ve been an editor or a content strategist on most of my recent projects. And though I sympathize with archivists’ anxiety about their continuing relevance, I’m also excited for them, as I am for anyone who has content worth sharing

@Gilbert C FAURE: a few are, many not yet. But don't worry, if they are investing in planning for a sustainable future, not created only at the expense of paying students, they'll figure it out by themselves pretty soon.

My latest blog post describes an 8th grade student curation project. Through curating, students experienced the freedom to learn about what most interested them, and to follow their questions in the direction that they needed to go, as they explored topics of the 19th century social reform movements in their social studies class.

LIbrarians are natural curators! It's what we do, so it makes sense that we should take the initiative to promot curation as a valuable skill for both our colleagues and our students.

“THE BOTTOM LINE IS, IF YOU’RE NOT THE ONE CONTROLLING YOUR LEARNING, YOU’RE NOT GOING TO LEARN AS WELL.” My mom used to say this, she told me that the main thing that kids needed to learn to do was to teach themselves. She believed that it was a skill that would last them a lifetime. This article is compelling. It even elaborates on removing adult barriers.

If you are into understanding the real value of content curation and what are the characterizing traist that make it so valuable and unique for the future of journalism and of our collective ability to stay informed, here is an evergreen "classic" on what curation specifically entails, synthesized and outlined by the Mindy McAdams. When it comes to content curation, her list includes seven specific characterizing traits:
Her content curation identikit is as useful, truthful and relevant today as it was was 5 years ago when it was first published. Content curation reference. Must-read. 9/10 Full post: http://mindymcadams.com/tojou/2008/curation-and-journalists-as-curators/ Question to you: Five years on, today, what would you add to these traits, that in your view, fully characterizes content curation?

How can we start structuring how to let go of control? "The less educators try to control what kids learn, the more students’ voices will be heard and, eventually, their ability to drive their own learning." |
I am seeing similar characteristics between content curators and information flaneurs described in this paper.
