Building ePortfolios On-line
 For several years now I've been teaching students how to work with learning portfolios. While portfolios are often touted as an excellent way to assess student achievement, I've found that more importantly, portfolios are beneficial to the learner for self-assessment, for making choices about learning, and for serving as a guide to becoming more autonomous and self-directed as a learner. In 2001, I enrolled in the SFU Graduate Field Program, Teaching and Learning in an Inform...

Tools for schools- one up, one down: Quizam and Yahooligans!
 Alan Zisman
Vancouver educational software developers Quizam (www.quizam.com ) are more modest. Their self-named software does just one thing, but it does it well, at a reasonably affordable cost.

WiFi Networks
Introduction
When I was growing up in the 80's, my family was the first to get a computer in our neighbourhood. It was a powerful stand-alone IBM PC-XT compatible that was used by four people in my family. Now as an adult with a family of my own – my wife and I, and our baby - there are three computers in the house, one of them being a laptop computer and all of them connected to the Internet. How times have changed. I've been running a wireless network ever since ...

Free Software
 I’m always on the lookout for free software and there are some good ones out there. PDF documents are common files we receive.

I’ve been told you can tweak Acrobat Reader so it doesn’t load all the plug-ins thus a faster start up time. But I found a faster alternative, Fox-It Reader. The program is free software available for download at http://ww...
