I'm absolutely wary of any technology that's going to enable/encourage bullying or trolling. I think there's a fine line between censorship and ensuring a safe community (especially in the wake of the Oregon shooting…
that's exactly what I came here to post. I find it even more troubling that the teacher was clearly aware of this possible outcome - going so far as to tell the kid to hide it from other teachers. but for all we know…
I've been thinking how interesting (fun and a little mean) it would be to teach a Software Development class where you - assign groups of students that don't really get along, - have groups consume APIs written by…
