Depot Archives
Depot is an online repository of example Content Enhancement devices provided by workshop participants, SIM professional developers, and other SIM practitioners. This site encourages both public sharing of examples as well as secure, group-based sharing. Examples may be filtered by subject area, grade level, and routine.
Depot updates are coming! Well, someday--but now's the time to start telling me what you like and don't like. Read on for more information.
Our grand experiment in online peer support is drawing to a close, but there are still plenty of other ways to get help with Stratepedia. Plus: New documentation coming!
Here are the slides Amber and I used for our first presentation last Thursday.
I've had some changes ready to apply to Depot sitting on the back burner for awhile--in the interest of getting them in place in plenty of time for the conference I'm planning to push them out to the server over the holiday weekend. Downtime should be very minimal, since the ...
Save a tree (and your back)--share your Content Enhancement handouts with Depot instead of print.
There's a new group on Depot for anyone using Content Enhancement in professional development. Sign in, click the Groups link, and locate Models for Professional Development. You'll need a membership key to join--drop me a line at help@stratepedia.org and I'll hook you up. Thank you to Gail Cheever ...
Those updates to Depot I was talking about the other day are now online. Stay tuned for more developments with the new state standards features. Let me know if something doesn't look right--hopefully that's not the case as I'd rather watch basketball this weekend!
The latest round of changes to Depot is anon. Here's a rundown of what's new.
I'm relatively happy with how the new state standards support is shaping up, but reserve the right to tweak it based on feedback we get from Virginia and from you. Drop me a line ...
Support for indexing Content Enhancement examples by state standards is coming! Take a sneak peek at how Depot will let you tie your examples to standards, and what still needs to be done.

Due to some unannounced (to me, anyway) changes to the mail servers we use to send you important things like Learning Labs posting notifications and password reset help, we've been able to send you messages for the better part of the last few days (I'm not even sure when this ...
At some point Friday evening I'll be adding the following new features to Depot:
RSS feeds for all groups: Get updates via RSS whenever your favorite groups get new content. (Hint: If your group also has a presence in the Learning Labs you can integrate the RSS feed via a block--ask ...
You know how I said Depot would be much easier to extend with new features than was the Content Enhancement Library? I wasn't kidding. Tonight I'll be posting an updated version of Depot with a new Bookmarks feature.
Bookmarks work the same way as the bookmarks or favorites option in your ...
I know I mentioned it in the preview videos, and you'll receive a warning message in Depot if you try it, but you can't upload GIST files to Depot using Safari. It has to do with GIST not being a run-of-the-mill file type (like PDF, Word, etc.) and thus Safari ...
Depot is finally here! Thank you for your patience--I hope you enjoy the new site.
Don't forget, you'll need to migrate your Content Enhancement Library account to Depot in order to access your content. Just click on the Migrate your account link and follow the instructions. Click the more link that follows the sentence you're reading right now for a short video tutorial.
OK folks, it's official: The Content Enhancement Library will be formally retired this Friday evening and replaced with Depot.
What does this mean for you?
On Friday evening I'll be shutting down the old site, moving a snapshot of the data to the new site, and bringing Depot online. This process will ...
Last summer I talked quite a bit about the new Stratepedia Library, the successor to the Content Enhancement Library you all know. Guess what? It's getting close. In the next few days, as I have time, I'll start sharing some video clips here highlighting the new features, such as ...
