Okay Connected Course students, assessment time. True or False? It’s actually some sort of inside out zen riddle. Pretty much the concept of a course as most all of us know through decades of conditioning is that classes/courses are clearly bounded in time. The school sets the schedule, the teacher gives out the final grade. […]
… support Hack Education, support Audrey Watters. Do I really need to spell out the reasons? Are you reading her year end summaries of educational technology? Do you get that she represents a consistent, often critical, unbiased, unbought by sponsorship voice in our field? So $10 a month from me may not go far. But […]
This is just a test for Rochelle Lockridge, who is getting her chops as a new DS106 radio DJ. It’s been a really really long time since I used Nicecast, so I just took a few minutes to refresh myself for the set up I used previously for being able to DJ music and cross […]
Oh chastise me for a sleazy blog post title, and worse, for probably some bad taste in Photoshoppery. But I see these things, my little teenage brain starts whirring, and then I have to drop what I am doing for a half hour of mashing up. A few days ago the OLDaily in my inbox […]

Oh Google, what you do with my keywords. Unexpected images, then leading me down some memories. It’s mostly connected in loose strands of unexpected fibers. So I am working on an icon for a new secret half formed thing Brian Lamb and I are cooking up here at TRU. The metaphor is somewhat in the […]
So far on my fellowship here at TRU I have partially developed three Smallest Possible Learning Online Tools (again give all credit/blame for the acronym to Señor Borregoruido). I am not quite convinced they will evolve into anything usable, but hey, that’s what experimentation is about. A main principle we are trying to is give […]
From some banter via twitter this morning with Clint Lalonde and Pat Lockley, it occurred to me a great challenge to Creative Commons is that the license is metadata that is usually separated from the content it refers too– e.g. it is extra code in a web page, or additional information stored with a photo […]
I’ve been grateful for the deluxe accommodations that has been provided for my fourth month visit at Thompson Rivers University. I’m on the fancy floor of suites, above 10 floors of student residences. The floor I am on (I think) they run out of their Hospitality program, so there are students in that program working […]
