There is a look in the encounter, from the unmasked to the masked. This is that unstated message, as so, is totally inferred, perhaps imagined? Yet. I feel it each time in encounter with ay service person, pumping gas, or in an encounter outside our bubble home. When I am masked or first to mask, […]
When I say “Accordion” your first association may be the musical instrument. But here we are talking about a simple, display-oriented (no built in feedback) H5P content type…

Join me (or click away quickly now) for another rummaging in an old hard drive of 1990s website files for a taste of the uncharted freedom when we created digital content without platforms […]

My Mom’s oldest sister, Ruth has outlived siblings Dinah, Harvey, and Alyce (mom) while Dorothy, the youngest is living too. Judy has heard via Facebook that Ruth’s granddaughter had entered […]
I could not be more excited to see the forces of the Association for Learning Technologies (ALT) doubling up with Reclaim Hosting to smash the atoms of their respective OER and Domains conferences together for the upcoming OERxDomains21 conference. Well I was excited enough to volunteer for the conference planning team. And you should be […]
