Pondering what to learn next 🤔
A look back at this summer's PD - Part I: Conferences
29-08-2019, 15:13 Conference, education, higherEd, ProfDev, reflection
Summer is usually the time for some professional development, after all during the academic year things are going at such a fast and furious pace that it doesn't leave much time (let alone brain/mind-space) to undertake much professional development. This summer (because of "factors") professional development was not as easy going as it has been the past few years, so I needed to

The doctoral Winchester plan
29-05-2017, 02:30 dissertation, EDDE806, education, humor, PhD, reflection
If you've ever seen the movie Shaun of the Dead, a humorous take on the surviving the zombie apocalypse, you are familiar with the Winchester plan. The Winchester is a local (to the protagonist) pub, and it key to surviving the zombie apocalypse - according to the protagonist, is taking a short skip-and-a-hop to the local pub (after doing a couple of short tasks) and waiting for help to arrive
EDDE 806: Epilogue (of reboots and alternative universes)
30-03-2017, 02:30 assignment, EDDE806, PhD, reflection
I guess this is my "806 is dead, long live 806!" post ;-)
One of the final requirements for EDDE 806 is to:
Create a final blog post linking to the 6 earlier posts and providing a final reflection, feedback and any recommendations on the course as a whole.
For those who are keeping score at home, other course requirements included the following:
Present a 30-45 minute presentation
EDDE 806 - Post XIII - It's the end of the semester, and I feel fine
25-03-2017, 11:15 assignment, EDDE806, PhD, reflection
Alright folks! That's a wrap for EDDE 806 for this semester! The semester went out with a bang with three members of my cohort presenting their dissertation proposal work in progress (and for those on the east coast the session was a little long - after a long day - but well worth it!).
The three proposed research projects are Kim's, titled "Student Satisfaction Levels among
EDDE 806 - Post V - The final one of the spring 2016 season
01-04-2016, 05:00 dissertation, EDDE801, EDDE802, EDDE804, EDDE806, instructionalDesign, knowledgeManagement, MBA, PhD, reflection, research
A couple of weeks after the last session of 806 for this spring aired I had an opportunity to observe the proceedings from across time and space (aren't recordings grand?). Looking at the (small) crowd that attended the live session maybe I should have attended! Anyway! It does should like next fall, or perhaps next spring once I am formally in 806, there might be a ton of people
EDDE 806 - Post III - Presented by Musical Interlude!

Some nice artwork, no doubt by @merryspaniel :-)
Time just seems to fly by this semester. I don't know if it's because I am busy, or if (as the old saying goes) time flies when you're having fun!
This past week we skipped the usual introductions and check-ins in 806, affectionately known by some as the therapy portion to the live session. I actually didn't mind it considering that
EDDE 806 post II - Of research questions and generalizability
05-02-2016, 12:40 assignment, EDDE804, EDDE806, INSDSG601, INSDSG684, instructionalDesign, OER, PhD, postmodernism, reflection, research
Yesterday evening I attended my second formal EDDE 806 session (formal in the sense that I am doing blog posts for it, as opposed to just attending and being a fly on the wall). In any case, the session was pretty interesting, and Viviane Vladimirsky, a fellow EdD student, on her work on her dissertation.
Just prior to Viviane's presentation, as we were going around introducing ourselves
On prepping for a dissertation
22-01-2016, 14:06 #remixthediss, dissertation, EDDE804, EDDE806, MBA, PhD, Presentation, reflection, seminar
I must be the only weirdo who inquires about "taking" a seminar before the 'logical' or programmed sequence of the seminar. That said, for my doctoral program the final seminar (EDDE 806) is actually open to all EdD students (and alumni) so I have been on-and-off in this seminar since I started two years ago. When I was in 801 it was easier to attend, so I probably attended 3-4 sessions.
So long 2015! What a "teaching" year!
31-12-2015, 04:30 INSDSG601, INSDSG684, INSDSG690, reflection, teaching
Well, 2015 is done! Grades are in, courses are complete, and things are in process for next year. Next spring I am not teaching, so I am thinking about cool (and instructive) things I can implement for the course that I am scheduled to teach this summer (intro to instructional design).
I won't work too hard on next summer's course just yet, too many other things to consider first.

Socrates Badge, by @merryspaniel
It's a bit hard to believe, but two years ago - around this time of year - I was scurrying to get my application into Athabasca University to have my application considered for Cohort 7. The deadline for Athabasca's program is at the same time as the deadline for my department (January 15th), so I was trying to make sure that my recommendations were all in
