“…Echoing this line of thought, Glassman and Kang (2012) proposed a concept called open source intelligence (OSINT) to pinpoint skills essential to intelligent problem solving through the internet -communication skills, search skills, differentiation skills, organisation skills, and reactive/generative skills. According to Glassman and Kang, there are two reasons why self-efficacy with respect to reactive/generative skills is possibly the most difficult to develop: (a) the extension of individual thought processes into a collective information universe poses a greater intellectual challenge than processing information at the individual level; and (b) the tools that call for the application of collective intelligence have not been implemented in educational contexts extensively and therefore most students' have not had adequate opportunities to practice reactive/generative skills.…”

“…Kim and Glassman categorised the dimensions of internet self-efficacy into distinct levels; based on theory and research (Benkler, 2006;Castells, 2007;Castells, Tubella, Sancho, Diaz ed Isla, & Wellman, 2004;Glassman & Kang, 2012) they divided the five types of internet skills into three levels based on probability of students having had prior experience in implementing them for web-based activities. If a skill has been used extensively in the past, students will very likely believe that they will be able to apply those skills whenever needed.…”

“…At the individual level, there are differences in internet self-efficacy or students' perceptions of their skills and abilities in being able to use the internet successfully as a learning tool and a knowledge sharing medium (Glassman & Kang, 2012). The conceptualisation by various researchers, of internet self-efficacy as a multi-faceted global construct is strongly dependent on the user experience within a given context (Tsai, Chuang, Liang, & Tsai, 2011).…”

The present study makes the case that the individual constituents of internet self-efficacy -search self-efficacy, communication self-efficacy, organisation self-efficacy, differentiation selfefficacy, and reactive/generative self-efficacy -may be of differential importance in predicting internet anxiety within web-assisted learning environments. Two hundred and eighty-nine undergraduate students enrolled in a blog-centric general education course on child development at a large mid-western university in the United States participated in this study. Based on inferences drawn from the socio-cognitive perspective and cognitive load theory, it was hypothesised that in a blog-centric constructivist learning environment, reactive/generative selfefficacy or the belief in one's ability to react meaningfully to others' posts and generate educationally valuable posts, would emerge as a unique predictor of internet anxiety after controlling for all of the other facets of internet self-efficacy. The results of a two-step hierarchical regression indicated that both reactive/generative self-efficacy and search selfefficacy are unique predictors of internet anxiety. The findings have several implications for researchers seeking greater insight into the relationship between internet self-efficacy and internet anxiety as well as instructors seeking to create a constructivist learning environment utilising the potential of the web.

“…Further, the transformative role of technology on society can be seen affecting how information is accessed and influences intelligence. Glassman and Kang (2012) suggested that fluid, crystal, and cultural intelligence is changing in what they understand as open source intelligence. Additionally, and more salient to science teaching and learning, technology transforms science practices (Sabelli, 2006).…”

This research examines how science teaching orientations and beliefs about technology-enhanced tools change over time in professional development (PD). The primary data sources for this study came from learning journals of 8 eighth grade science teachers at the beginning and conclusion of a year of PD. Based on the analysis completed, Information Transmission (IT) and Struggling with Standards-Based Reform (SSBR) profiles were found at the beginning of the PD, while SSBR and Standards-Based Reform (SBR) profiles were identified at the conclusion of PD. All profiles exhibited Vision I beliefs about the goals and purposes for science education, while only the SBR profile exhibited Vision II goals and purposes for science teaching. The IT profile demonstrated naïve or unrevealed beliefs about the nature of science, while the SSBR and SBR profiles had more sophisticated beliefs in this area. The IT profile was grounded in more teachercentered beliefs about science teaching and learning as the other two profiles revealed more student-centered beliefs. While no beliefs about technology-enhanced tools were found for the IT profile, these were found for the other two profiles. Our findings suggest promising implications for (a) Roberts' Vision II as a central support for reform efforts, (b) situating technologyenhanced tools within the beliefs about science teaching and learning dimension of science teaching orientations, and (c) revealing how teacher orientations develop as a result of PD.

“…This method is similar to the one that was developed to study the Silk Road's transactions (Christin, 2013). From a wider perspective, we are using the Open Source Intelligence methodology (Glassman and Kang, 2012). Our method is simple and very precise.…”

Aims: This 11-month study analysed illicit drug sales on the anonymous Tor network, with a focus on investigating whether a seller's reputation and capacity increased daily drug sales. Design and setting: The data was gathered from Silkkitie, the Finnish version of the Silk Road, by web crawling the site on a daily basis from November 2014 to September 2015). The data includes information on sellers (n=260) and products (n=3823). Measurements: The measurements include the sellers' reputation, the sale amounts (in euros), the number of available products and the types of drugs sold. The sellers' capacity was measured using their full sales potential (in euros). Fixed-effects regression models were used to estimate the effects of sellers' reputation and capacity; these models were adjusted for the types of drugs sold. Findings: Overall, illicit drug sales totalled over 2 million euros during the study, but many products were not sold at all, and sellers were active for only a short time on average (mean=62.8 days). Among the products sold, stimulants were most widely purchased, followed by cannabis, MDMA, and psychedelics. A seller's reputation and capacity were both associated with drug sales. Conclusion: The Tor network has enabled a transformation in drug sales. Due to the network's anonymity, the seller's reputation and capacity both have an impact on sales.
