In a last 2024 spurt of Jim Groom #BlogOrDie spirit (hey, bava, where is THE post on that?) more of a small but interesting observation I had (gulp) a month or go on a visit to my doctor. I have to say as well how much I appreciate finding Dr B. While the Canada healthcare […]
No it’s not that show. But yes, I am back co-teaching Network Narratives with Mia Zamora for a group of intrepid graduate students at Kean University. For the full (of something) story on this adventure, you could tune into the podcast we did a few weeks ago with Terry Greene and Anne-Marie Scott for Check […]
Oops. Speaking of slacking on the blogging, the last post here on this year’s Networked Narratives class was the first one about this year’s class. This fourth iteration of this change it up every year course co-taught with Mia Zamora at Kean University mixed things up from previous years. More on that soon. From the […]
I can’t say I’ve ever aimed to “put courses online.” The focus of my un-illustrious edtech career has been helping people find creative ways to leverage technology, media, practices, especially on the internet, into their endeavors, especially teaching. Since the early 1990s, most of the uptake has been by theft left side of “the chasm”. […]
There you go, try guess the nature of this blog post from a word heavy vague title. Better yet, just go first and try the thing I will be ‘splaining right here. Well, are you back? Did anything happen? Because one of our students in class (she too a teacher) asked as well as my […]
It’s back. It’s dark, reflective, you are looking into it. It looks “off”. But it’s not. It’s looking at you. Is it? This is the 2020 iteration of a recast Network Narratives, the course I’ve co-taught (completely remotely) at Kean University with Mia Zamora. Things are different this time around, start with the intro that […]
This idea has been bouncing in my head for way too long, it’s time to get some help chasing down an answer. And I would be fine if it’s not the one I seek. I have been contacted by a quiet, off the beaten track, but legit organization, –call them the Campbell Consortium– interested in […]
Do the assignments you assign? I blabbed about this recently for the Ontario Extend mOOC I was facilitating, so it’s also appropriate for the Networked Narratives course I co-teach with Mia Zamora. At some point I would have used what was seemingly fit word for this about eating one’s own canine food, but I have […]
The whole notion of learning from failure is a motivational speaker industry. And it’s been part of my messaging, just recently for a talk to education students at the University of Regina. I often start technology talks with a promise that the technology will likely fail: If it does fail, then I met my expectations. […]
One of the most rewarding things I have gotten to do the last few years (and this may be a blog post lacking mention of SPLOTs, hah!) has been teaching co-teaching the Networked Narratives open course with Mia Zamora. In first version in 2017, Mia was present with the class at Kean University and I […]
