@dogtrax This is the sound of my jaw dropping on the floor, your students are brilliant with their internet mapping project- the water sprayer of time, the dangling bloody chains...

How do you frame this task for your students?

Wow.

Wow.

I went digging to find ones I had created as a "Make" assignment in #netnarr (2020) https://make.arganee.world/thing/internet-map/ and then going back to ones around 1990 when Kelly was collecting them https://www.flickr.com/photos/kevinkelly/albums/72157613562011932/

@cogdog I thought I came across the Internet Mapping Project via #clmooc but now wonder if it was #netnarr

@cogdog Thanks, Alan. How do I frame the lesson? It's part of a larger lesson around how companies track us when we are online and some mitigation strategies. Then we talk about the role of technology in their lives (gaming, communication, etc). We talk about metaphors as symbols but they are free to go the literal route, too. Then, later, they write about their choices and share with the class. It's always a good lesson. (And then I put their art in the main school hallway for others to see)

@dogtrax I am counting on your students realizing now and years from now, what a gift they have for you as a teacher.

@dogtrax love the tree roots. This is particularly timely with the'social ban' coming into effect here next week.
