 the weekend, I ran across what I consider an excellent post on the Cult of Pedagogy blog –
<b>“<a href="https://www.cultofpedagogy.com/curator-or-dumper/"><span style="color:#2E75B6;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#2E75B6;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%">Are You a Curator or a Dumper?</span></a>”</b> by Jennifer Gonzalez. The informative piece
 highlights the benefits of true curation, touches a bit on related brain research, offers tips about how to curate, provides scenarios of where curation can be applied, and shares some tech tools.

 weeding. However, it also applies more broadly, like when sharing resources in response to a request, creating a newsletter, developing a website, etc.
