Hah! I was not only off by 1 in my opening for Write 6×6 I somehow missed last week, being this thing called “Spring Break” was a bonus week (?). According to the Writing Ideas page, this is week 2, so I am off by one ahead. Do I stop? Shrug, rules need not apply […]
Because my current work now is centered in open education, and coming off of Open Education Week, I was swimming much in conversations, workshops about Open Pedagogy (often as acronym OEP). I am not here to offer Yet Another Definition (check one of the best resources). I welcome this as moving beyond Open Education as […]
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 […]
Earlier in the week I thought I might have 6 for this post as part of the Write 6×6 thing I signed up for. I was thinking of experiences I had this week that affirm or support what (I think) I know. These were triggered by interactions this week as the organization I work for, […]
I’m putting my stake in the ground to be part of the Write 6×6 extravaganza, but starting here a number 0 (also doing so to establish my tag). Writing 6 blog posts in 6 weeks should not be a challenge, it’s more about joining a group of colleagues doing the writing challenge together. As many […]
I can’t stop the curiosity impulse and sometimes feel obliged to chase down source-less photos. So it started with a Cory Doctorow tweet (just follow him, you will not be sorry) Why this image? It’s just road side Americana. Was it the tweet saying “circa 1970s” which was my childhood? That guess might be based […]
I am late on the train of exploring WordPress block development; this post at WordPress Tavern looked like a simple way to at least get the paws wet. This little tinkering has not a whole lot of deep or even mild relevance, but the code fingers have been idle lately. And it was so easy […]
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 […]
Do Google ever really commit to “Do No Evil”? They might not be buddies with Lucifer, but some news about something as banal as fonts is chilling. To me. I await someone with more expertise to shed some light, but this is how I read a recent snipped of chilling tech news. In late January, […]
Oops. This post was not on the drafts I store in the back corners of my brain. And only after typing a first title (because all my posts need titles first) (well after I search for the photo) of “Sound Around” did my neurons flip on the 60’s vintage Buffalo Springfield track. Plus adding the […]
