Gnoll Facts:

"Packed like sardines" is actually a Common saying borrowed from Gnoll, which predates canned sardines and instead references how many sardines we can eat in a sitting. My record is probably like seventy-nine, loosely estimating.

Nearly three-quarters (74%) of European Union citizens believe their country benefits from EU membership. Maybe now is the right time for even stronger cohesion — perhaps even a federation.

As unitarists, we first need to agree on a common language, which can then pave the way for a modern European culture. #BuildBackBetter

W8 - How do you or might you use language to change the way that your students think about learning in the classroom?

Working in technology for many years, there seemed to always be a new self help book on building up skills to be more successful, organized, a better leader etc. In 2005, I had a manager/mentor that read many of these types of books. Up to this point I had never really given “self improvement books” a chance as the “buzz words” in the books seemed flashy and geared towards selling books rather than real world results. This particular mentor changed that perception as he was wildly successful and credited his ideas, business culture concepts and business lingo to the books he was inspired by. Often organizations such as AT&T, Xerox, and even Apple develop internally or purchase systems for measuring competencies, performance and developing a common language based around said competencies for building successful employees. I was reminded of this as I read chapter 4 of Matera’s book on the language of learning. On pg. 38 Matera calls out his own inspiration from a fellow teacher and friend Adam Moreno on the concept of “purpose driven learning”. This style of learning being identified by ten qualities of highly successful individuals: confidence, creativity, enthusiasm, effort, focus, resilience, initiative, curiosity, dependability and empathy. Matera, in his classroom by building a “common language” was creating a highly functioning team environment similar to what you would see at a startup tech company with a culture of success! When I develop training for an employer I often start buy asking questions around common language and company culture to help build a narrative that incorporates these elements into the design. No one wants to work toward “hollow or nebulous goals” at work so the journey in your design should allow for learner ownership in driving the process. (Matera, 2015)  Matera references Gabe Zichermann work in gamification, creating the SAS model for motivation and the G Summit for expanding game mechanics in business education and non entertainment industries. Gabe has a great TED talk on kids and game effect on intelligence here: https://www.ted.com/talks/gabe_zichermann_how_games_make_kids_smarter#t-354563. I find it intensely inspiring to hear data the supports positive neurological growth benefits when using various gaming platforms, however I do believe in moderation as we can ill afford cognitive gains at the expense of other undiscovered developmental drawbacks.

May this video find you in the best of Spirits. THIS!!!! #MUSIC is our #COMMONLANGUAGE - My #Goal is to #UNIFY us through #Sound and #POSITIVEVIBRATIONS (in general) they been lying to us for so many years about how different we are, (yes life affects each of us differently, and the system is set up for inequality) but when people of all walks of life can stand next to each other and feel #love and #forget the #things that separate us when #Dance with one another and cheer and sing, then I feel like THAT IS true #GROWTH!! The #POPUPPARTIES are a testament to what is POSSIBLE WHEN WE TRUST the music and even for a brief moment in time, #EACHOTHER #ILOVEYOUSOMUCH #ecussionist #drummer #dj #drumjockey #producer #NYC #NYCulture 📸@denisseibanezc @aarontylerphotography

Our analysis is based upon Twitter data gathered in approximately 20 months between October 18, 2010 and May 17, 2012, at an average rate of 6:5|105 GPS-tagged tweets per day (see Table 1 for exact numbers). The dataset includes 3:8|108 tweets produced by 6:0|106 users located in 191 countries, 110 of which generated the amount of data necessary for a significant statistical analysis of language detection. Our language detection methods allowed us to identify 78 languages. [...] When we color each tweet according to its language and display them on a map we see immediately that most content produced within each country is written in its own dominant language. [...] Second, Twitter users may be biased towards the most common languages, in order to reach a wider audience.
