      The EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative’s (ELI’s) 7 Things You Should Know
      About…
      series provides concise information on emerging learning
      technologies and related practices. Each brief focuses on a single technology or
      practice and describes:

      • What it is
      • How it works
      • Where it is going
      • Why it matters to teaching and learning

        Standards for the 21st-Century Learner cover“Standards for
        the 21st-Century Learner” offer vision for teaching and learning to both guide
        and beckon our profession as education leaders. They will both shape the library
        program and serve as a tool for library media specialists to use to shape the
        learning of students in the school.

          The Educause 7 Things You Should Know Series

          Updated to include August through December 2007 releases

          Educause has a series that highlights specific current technologies and boils them down into a mini-sheet that tech coordinators and advocates can use on their own campus. Unlike some of the Educause resources which require membership, this series is open to the general public which means that K-12 folks can access them as well. New brief sheets have followed a monthly publishing schedule with the latest being the Twitter brief posted just this month.

          The series can be found here, but the individual links of papers (in PDF format) posted as of 19 July 2007 are listed below. I find looking at the timeline of releases interesting from an anthropological perspective as it illustrates where the edtech interest was focused over the past two years that these briefs have been published.
