With a lot less effort than starting from scratch, you can extract multiple learning assets out of a single piece of core content. For example, you can take a video file and extract an audio file and transcript that can create value for your st
This week we are going to talk about making your instruction more personal. My inspiration is coming from Ruth Colvin Clark’s book, Evidence-Based Training Methods. I am also inspired by all the entrepreneurial podcasts that I listen to. They t
I have participated in NaNoWriMo a few times. The first time resulted in my book, Read to Succeed. My last attempt has sparked progress to a book I am currently finalizing. I am hoping to have it released in the next couple of months. I am usin

The first time I had heard about Digital Powerups was while listening to episode 295 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Bonnie Stachowiak was interviewing Travis Thurston, the Assistant Director of Empowering Teaching Excellence. I immediate
Throughout this podcast, I have referenced active learning but I have never really explained myself. The concept of active learning has been around since the 1860s. I suspect that it is not used in classrooms more is because it is not convenien
What is Quest-based Learning? According to Chris Haskell, “Quest-based learning is an instructional design theory of game-based learning that focuses on student activity choice within the curriculum.” The key to this is that the learning design
Over the years, I have sat in countless presentations. Many of them are extremely boring; however, some of the most fun, informative, and engaging presentations have adhered to the Pecha Kucha rules. The campus where I work is about to launch a
There are many different activities for engaging students online. Students like an engaging class; however, in many cases, these activities are not being used. In this episode, we will examine 12 strategies that are easy to implement and will i
I have been using the Google the alphabet technique for many years. I just didn’t realize there was a name for it. I learned this strategy while listening to other bloggers, podcasters, and vlogger pros. These folks constantly shared their meth
While I was a cadet candidate at the United States Air Force Academy Preparatory School, I was subjected to the Thayer Method of Instruction. With this method, students are able to recognize problems, think logically, define solutions using res
I have been using Diigo since 2008 when I switched from Delicious, another social bookmarking tool. Diigo’s prime purpose is to bookmark websites and documents that you want to refer to later. I have nearly 21,000 items organized with 1,842 dif
If our current rank and file classrooms are such a productive learning environment, why doesn’t the campus leadership team use them to conduct their meetings? Instead, they use conference rooms. Quite simply, there is power with discussion. Ide
Learning is about dialogue. When we have conversations, we must adhere to established protocols, even when only having discussions with friends. During daily conversations with others, in the classroom, and through academic research, there are
Over a couple of decades working as an instructional technologist, I have developed my ideas on what a good assignment should cover. In preparation for this episode, I rediscovered the principles outlined by TILT - Transparency in Learning and
I used after-action reviews for the last 40 years. I was first exposed to them in the Air Force as a strategy for continuous improvement. AARs have served me well. I continue to use them today. I also use them in the classroom and you can as we
