Pondering what to learn next 🤔
2023 Academic Year in Review

The end of 2023! It seems like only yesterday that we were starting to hear some whispers about this thing called "ChatGPT," but it was in fact about a year ago, and as you know we moved pretty quickly through that hype cycle. Don't worry, this entire YIR (year in review) won't be about ChatGPT 😂. As I was pondering other academic-y

Changing mental gears and putting yourself in student's shoes
25-09-2023, 18:30 instructionalDesign, learning, pondering, shifts, teachingGazing at LearningThe other day I was doing some reflecting on my own "return" to being a learner after my doctoral journey ended. Last semester I took a course on negotiation, which I saw relevant to both work and also for my role as a member of our union's contract bargaining team this round. This course was a graduate-level course, and is typically taken either in the first or second term
ETMOOC2 Session 1 Ponderings - Part III (the outtakes)
05-05-2023, 13:20 #etmooc, #etmooc2, AI, AIEd, assessment, ChatGPT, instructionalDesign, LLM, teachingMe again, anime-style AI (or at least whatnightCafe thinks I look like in this setting)Alright, so here's my final post on session one of #etmooc2. You can find post 1 and post 2 on this blog. For this post, I thought I'd post some prompts and responses from my playing with ChatGPT. Fair warning, I tried to write a profanity-laden email (it sounds badly written IMO, but still has lots of
ETMOOC2 Session 1 Ponderings - Part Deux
04-05-2023, 10:11 #etmooc, #etmooc2, AI, AIEd, assessment, ChatGPT, instructionalDesign, LLM, teachingAnother me in a Star Trek setting, by NightCafeThis is a continuation of my previous post from the other day. I didn't want to leave things in all negative terms, so here's part II with some thoughts on how AI might be used (or at least areas of AI that I am warming up on). This isn't a posting about the current state of AI, but rather a 5 (or 10) year look out. This is mostly inspired
ETMOOC Session 1 Ponderings
02-05-2023, 13:12 #etmooc, #etmooc2, AI, AIEd, assessment, ChatGPT, instructionalDesign, LLM, teachingMe in a Star Trek-themed anime AI imageJust as session 2 of #etmooc2 is scheduled for this evening, I just caught up with the first session over the last few days. The recording can be found here, and it's funny that it took me 3 days to complete. Part of it was because I could only really do 20-minute increments (with notes and reactions), and part of it was because I paused to experiment with
Assessment in a Generative Connectivist Future
26-04-2023, 10:32 AI, AIEd, assessment, curriculum, instructionalDesignHey! Blogging two days in a row! Who would have thunk it? Well, I did tell Dave I'd read his post, and it did move some gears in the ol' noggin' so I guess something is still working upstairs ;-)I think you should go and read Dave's post, since I'm just going to reflect and react on a few select points. Dave introduced me to an article by Schinske and Tanner (2014) where they describe four
A future of couch potatoes
20-04-2023, 12:08 #etmooc, #etmooc2, AI, AIEd, assessment, instructionalDesign, MOOC, teachingI've been a bit "behind" in my participation in ETMOOC 2.0. I've been enjoying keeping an eye on Discord, but I haven't really been participating as much as I would like to. In a couple of weeks, the semester ends, so mental bandwidth should be freed up a bit ;-).This past week one of the streams that crossed my little part of Twitter was about teachers using ChatGPT to give feedback to learners
A look back to 2022 - Part V
22-01-2023, 16:54 instructionalDesign, teaching, yearInReviewThis is Part V of V of a look back to 2022. The first part discussed peer review requests in 2022, and the second part discussed professional development more broadly. The third part branched off a bit from the second part, discussing professional development a bit more from an academic development frame. The fourth part reflected a bit on research and publishing. Concluding
Faculty CPD: The View from the Bleachers.
01-09-2022, 14:45 FacDev, higherEd, instructionalDesign, ProfDev, trainingThis particular post has been in my drafts folder for a while now. The post started off as some ponderings, based on tweets from fellow instructional designers (over the summer), that lamented the fact that faculty members really didn't attend professional development opportunities that they had worked so hard to put together. With the start of the new academic year just ahead of us (at least
ID finds a Monkey paw and a Djinn lamp, what happens next will shock you!
11-08-2022, 11:57 academia, Employment, IHE, instructionalDesign, tenure, workMaybe I shouldn't take the bait, but I guess I couldn't leave this one alone either 😂. I might as well have a little fun with a clickbait-style title for this post 🤣. Reading IHE and JK feels like it's bad for my mental health. Anyway, instead of rage-writing, I thought I would expand a bit on his arguments. JK, over at IHE is opining again about things. This time it's a reaction
