Not in the spirit of slow blogging, this is just a slow blogger, catching up on a presentation done back on July 12. When I was a kid blogger, I’d have it written before the end of the day. C’est la blog. I do relish (possible pun warning) an opportunity to tap back into the […]
Whether you were present at this fest may be a future cultural touchstone, like all those who were at Woodstock after it happened. Or maybe the reputation might be as glowing as the basis of our metaphor. Huh? Today I co-wrangled a 3 hour online BCcampus FLO Lab with Jessica Motherwell McFarlane whom I can […]
I dare you. I double dog penguin dare you to contribute a story for my True Stories of Openness (formerly known as Amazing) aka Magic Acts of Web Serendipity… First conjured up long long ago (2009) at a conference far far away (Open Ed in Vancouver “Crossing the Chasm” was the theme), deploying not light […]
While lightning may not strike the same spot twice (debatable), I manage to keep recycling this same “True Stories of Openness” talk perhaps way too many times. It’s on tap as an Alt format session for OER22 but I gave it another warm up as a Creative Commons Lightning Talk for Open Education Week. Without […]
Try this one. A friend, colleague contacts you and says, “Do you remember that ______ I shared at _______? The most amazing thing happened…” You do want to know what comes next, right? That’s the the opening “hook” of excitement, intrigue, a hint of a journey that makes up the best of stories. And experiencing […]
I have an oft-expressed aversion to presenting with slides, especially when presenting about the web… It seems really counterproductive to do slide decks when sharing about the deeply interactive space of H5P. When I was asked to do a 20-25 minute talk on H5P for the Midwestern Higher Education Compact this idea went off in […]
As my OEG colleagues are finding out, if you invite me to your webinar, I will not arrive with a slidedeck, but instead… links. I’m excited tomorrow to visit the Grinnell College’s online workshop A Home on the Web at the generous invitation of Mo Pelzel, one of those amazing connections again (and again) would […]
On Thursday I managed to do a presentation for the 2021 PressEd Conference (WordPress in Education) at the same time I was co-hosting a BCcampus H5P Kitchen webinar. The former was easy because of the refreshingly unique mode of this conference as all “presentations” are done as a series of tweets in a 15 minute […]
There was a sequel to sharing the H5P/PB Kitchen as a keynote February 19 for the Arizona OER Conference. A week later, I brought to the same conference…
Psss, there are ways to do online conferences that do not require The Zoom. It sounds unlikely, but I have been part of two Twitter based WordPress in education conferences cooked up by Pat Lockley, PressEd versions I’ve been a part of in 2018, in 2019, and in 2020. So when Pat messaged about looking […]
