Welcome to my occasional ruminations on digital media and its use in journalism and education.

Why "Digital Ed?" Double-entendere. The site is a place for discussion of digital education and my SL avatar's name is Ed. That's it.

New Rules

As some of you already know, I've decided to go back to school (virtual school) for an MFA. I've found that taking courses via DE is sometimes the best way to learn to teach, in the way that What not to Wear can teach style.

So, here are the first lessons of DE from my first day of classes:

1) If you, the instructor, post an incorrect schedule on the first day of classes, please just remove it. Adding follow-up schedules with corrected dates is just an inconvenience and a reminder of your Day One foul-up.

2) If you are going to post corrections, try to avoid adding more errors in the fixed edition.

3) Use spell-check. There's little that dents credibility (especially in an English department class) like glaring spelling errors.

More as I come across them.
