The \u201carticle\u201d version appears blow. You can also enjoy the Twitter moment version if you like.\u00a0\nONE\n\nChris AldrichHello everyone! My name is Chris Aldrich. I\u2019m an independent researcher in a variety of areas including the overlap the internet and education. You can find more about me on my website https://boffosocko.com\nToday I\u2019ll be talking about Webmentions for open pedagogy.\u00a0\nTWO\nFor a variety of reasons (including lack of budget, time, support, and other resources) many educators have been using corporate tools from Google, Twitter, Facebook, and others for their ease-of-use as well as for a range of functionality that hadn\u2019t previously existed in the blogosphere or open source software that many educators use or prefer.\nThis leaves us and our students open to the vagaries and abuses that those platforms continually allow including an unhealthy dose of surveillance capitalism.\n\nPhoto by\u00a0Matthew Henry\u00a0on\u00a0UnsplashTHREE\nIn the intervening years since the blogosphere and the rise of corporate social media, enthusiasts, technologists and open source advocates have continued iterating on web standards and open protocols, so that now there are a handful of web standards that work across a variety of domains, servers, platforms, allowing educators to use smaller building blocks to build and enable the functionalities we need for building, maintaining, and most importantly owning our online courseware.\nFOUR\nSome of these new W3C specs include Webmention, Micropub, WebSub, IndieAuth, and Microsub. Today I\u2019ll talk abut Webmentions which are simply site-to-site @mentions or notifications which don\u2019t involve corporate social media silos.\nFor those who\u2019d like more information about Webmentions and how they could be used, I\u2019ve written a primer for A List Apart entitled Webmentions: Enabling Better Communication on the Internet.\n\nIllustration by Dougal MacPherson\n\nImage courtesy of A List ApartFIVE\nMany common content management systems support Webmention either out of the box or with plugins including: our friend WordPress, Drupal, WithKnown, Grav, and many others.\n\nWebmention rocksSIX\nWordPress can use this new standard with the Webmention plugin. (Surprise!) I also highly recommend the Semantic Linkbacks plugin which upgrades the presentation of these notifications (like Trackback, Pingback, or Webmention) to more user-friendly display so they appear in comments sections much like they do in corporate social media as comments,\u00a0reposts,\u00a0likes, and\u00a0favorites, detected using\u00a0microformats2 markup from the source of the linkback.\nSEVEN\nAnother plugin I love is Post Kinds Plugin (Classic editor only at present) which automatically parses URLs I want to reply to, like, bookmark, etc. and saves the reply context to my website which helps prevent context collapse. My commentary and notes then appear below it.\n(I also use a plugin that saves the content of URLs on my site to the Internet Archive, so I can reference them there later if necessary.)\n\nEIGHT\nThese plugins with WordPress allow teachers to post course content and students can then post their responses on their own sites and send notifications that they\u2019ve read, listened to, or watched that content along with their ideas and commentary.\nNINE\nExamples of webmentions in a course setting: Greg McVerry and I ran an experiment with Webmentions in a class in 2018.\u00a0\nExample assignment: https://archive.jgregorymcverry.com/5570-2/\nNotice the replies underneath which came from other sites including my response which is mirrored on my site at https://boffosocko.com/2018/08/04/highlighting-some-of-my-favorite-edtech-tools/\nExample podcast post for a class: https://archive.jgregorymcverry.com/2toponder-episode-one/\nNotice the listen webmention in the comments which links to my listen response at: https://boffosocko.com/2018/08/06/2toponder-episode-one-intertextrevolution/ where I own a copy of the context and my own response. As a student, even if the originals disappear, I\u2019ve got the majority of the important content from the course.\nTEN\nWhen the course is over, the student has an archive of their readings, work, and participation (portfolio anyone?) on a site they own. They can choose to leave it public or unpublish it and keep private copies.\n[Copies for Facebook, Google+ or Big EdTech Giants? They can ask for them nicely if they want them so desperately instead of taking them surreptitiously.]\nELEVEN\nAs a concrete example, I now have tagged archives for all the work I\u2019ve done for EDU522 with Greg McVerry who also has his related posts in addition to a variety that he subsequently archived.\n\nTWELVE\nBy taking the content AND the conversation around it out of the hands of \u201cbig social media\u201d and their constant tracking and leaving it with the active participants, we can effect far more ethical EdTech.\n\n[No more content farming? What will the corporate social media silos do?]\nTHIRTEEN\nImagine Webmentions being used for referencing journal articles, academic samizdat, or even OER? Suggestions and improvement could accumulate on the original content itself rather than being spread across dozens of social silos on the web.\n\n[Webmentions + creativity: How might you take their flexibility and use it in your online teaching practices?]\nFOURTEEN\nThere\u2019s current research, coding work, and thinking going on within the IndieWeb community to extend ideas like private webmentions and limiting audience so that this sort of interaction can happen in more secluded online spaces.\nI\u2019d welcome everyone who\u2019s interested to join in the effort. Feel free to inquire at an upcoming IndieWebCamp, Homebrew Website Club, event, or in online chat right now.\n\nFIFTEEN\nI\u2019ve also been able to use my WordPress website to collect posts relating to my participation in conferences like PressEdConf20 or Domains 2019 which included syndicated content to Twitter and the responses from there that have come back to my site using Brid.gy which bootstraps Twitter\u2019s API to send Webmentions back to my website.\nIf Twitter were to go away, they may take some of my connections, but the content and the conversations will live on in a place under my own control.\nThanks for your time and attention! I\u2019m around on Twitter\u2013or better: my own website!\u2013if you have any questions.",
