Likely a mis-applied generalization, but in a few different education spheres I am sensing that both the overload of new tech and the adoption of pre-built systems are contributing to a decline in the will/awareness to look being what an interface presents us. Thus the shiny front allure of GenAI to vibe the work for […]
There it is. Simple. That’s my “secret” for the topic of getting one’s “blog mojo back”. I salute the Reclaim Hosting efforts of Maren Deepwell and “Blog or Die” Jim Groom in their growing of a Blogging in Higher Education Community of Practice including last week’s Community Chat on Reclaim (I was impressed how well […]
Over at my OEGlobal perch I just scheduled a new recording session for the OE Global Voices podcast, this by request from the folks at Athabasca University that publish the open access journal, The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning (IRODDL) as it is their 25th anniversary. And it was exciting to […]
Just like almost everyone with a soul, a partial mind, and a heart, I am aghast at the crumbling into a fascist pile of the country I was born in… and semi-paralyzed on the “what to do”. As mostly, a release is creating something, a visual statement, expression brimming with angry sarcasm. How literally organizations […]
I admit my weirdness. As a kid (and still one) I love math. I loved doing long division. I loved when my 10th grade whacky Chemistry teacher Bloom Friedmen taught us all about dimensional analysis for unit conversions all it is is multiplying stuff by one. There goes a tangent again. But math and this […]
Two unrelated things get connected, yet another installment of loving all the links, worth making a wish for. In the daily ritual department, Cori and I enjoy our first cup of coffee and conversation in bed. Well, she’s the early riser who ventures down to fetch our fresh java. After that, heading downstairs, already my […]
Links, links, links. Happy [Link Loving] Web Day, being the 36th birthday of the World Wide Web, as it needed to be named at that time. As a well established adult at that age, you are confiden— okay enough web anthropomorphizing. One of those things I tag as webserendipity happened a few days ago, and […]
I’m just over the wild and fun rush of organizing the strings and gizmos for last week’s Open Education Week including my own self inflicted plan to organize 12+ live streamed un structured open conversations (10+ hours worth). In many places and one particular where the questions along that lines of “where do we go […]
I’m in the late middle of a sheer mad but insanely fun series of events for OE Global’s Open Education Week. That itself is a post or more, with the set up and development of the WordPress web site, an Events calendar plugin, fediversing the events… oh, stop it! But also, I have had to […]
This is a post of the CogDogBlog Federated Publishing System. This is only a test. Nah, it;s a real blog post! But my last post was not published to the Fediverse and the kind folks who make the software and actually respond like humans suggested the newest version of the ActivityPub plugin should make amends.
