Wow. The storms this afternoon which just missed us here in St. Paul, wrecked parts of the ‘burbs just north of here. At least one person (a young child) is dead, and more are injured. The storm is still going strong, en route to Wisconsin. I pray that no others are hurt!

Here’s a great short introduction to course design.

Hat tip to Lynn Schofield Clark for the mention of this guide to Journalism 2.0. But don’t think it’s just for journalists! It’s actually a great FREE book introducing various elements of digital literacy. (Incidentally, the course Lynn describes in that post, for which the book is one resource, sounds really fun — I aspire to design courses with similar public impact in our context.)

I’m trying to figure out how to compost here at home (Oma had great compost in Vienna), and Eric just sent me this handy wiki on the topic.
