As well as this blog, there are some other things I've done hanging around this domain:
  • MozFest Games
  • TRU Games (the same as above, but for a Canadian audience)
  • My CMALT Portfolio (ask me for a password)

#ds106radio is just like heaven

February 19, 2021February 19, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

https://twitter.com/ammienoot/status/1244104824850800640 It’s been nearly a year since myself, Maren and Tannis started broadcasting together on #ds106radio. Radio adventures started out for me with listening to birdsong as Jim Groom broadcast his days in Italy. The contrast with the depths of a prairie winter, and the … Continue reading #ds106radio is just like heaven

Care is a sustainability practice

February 18, 2021 · Leave a comment ·

I haven’t written a lot about my new role and just what exactly I’ve been getting up to over the last year, mostly because it has seemed so trivial compared to all of us trying to get through this bloody pandemic. However, it’s been over … Continue reading Care is a sustainability practice

I do not like this new normal (please be nice to others)

September 21, 2020September 21, 2020 · 3 Comments ·

I’ve seen a number of news articles over the last few weeks about the start of term in various Universities. Many of them share a common theme – IT services suffering under load on the first day of teaching. They also share the same sorts … Continue reading I do not like this new normal (please be nice to others)

Mind the Ethics Gap

September 5, 2020September 21, 2020 · 3 Comments ·

I’ve Tweeted a few things this week relating to a colleague in another Canadian university, Ian Linkletter, who now finds himself on the sticky end of a lawsuit from Proctorio, an automated proctoring service, for sharing some videos that they regarded to be confidential. These … Continue reading Mind the Ethics Gap

OpenETC reflections and minor miracles

August 21, 2020August 21, 2020 · Leave a comment ·

I’ve not blogged any substantial edtech musings in a long time, because it just hasn’t seemed like the moment and I’ve not had the energy. I’ve realised that although I’ve been riding the novelty of a new country and a new role, the grind has … Continue reading OpenETC reflections and minor miracles

Playing with Azuracast #ds106radio

August 17, 2020 · 1 Comment ·

One of the things keeping me sane in this madness has been noodling about on #ds106radio, most usually with Tannis Morgan and Maren Deepwell. With the recent upgrade to the server infrastructure to use Azuracast, Jim offered me the opportunity to kick the tyres a … Continue reading Playing with Azuracast #ds106radio

A quick thought on an icebreaker

August 16, 2020August 16, 2020 · 2 Comments ·

Okay – I’ve been taking a short for-credit course from the UK Open University, and since it has a reflection task at the end of every week, I had some grand lofty plan that I’d cross post that here and perhaps expand on it a … Continue reading A quick thought on an icebreaker

#ds106radio – some futzing and an improved broadcasting setup

July 15, 2020July 16, 2020 · 1 Comment ·

I’ve been further tinkering with and trying to improve on my #ds106radio broadcasting set-up and have had a little bit of a breakthrough which has finally led to me getting a new setup in place that I’m pretty chuffed with. As much as anything I’ve … Continue reading #ds106radio – some futzing and an improved broadcasting setup

Giving Thanks

On Saturday night I did a #ds106radio thing with Sarah Lambert and Johanna Funk to help them virtually celebrate successfully completing their PhDs. As part of the session we started by talking about the lands we were on. Johanna is on Larrikia country in Darwin … Continue reading Giving Thanks

Critical Perspectives in Practice

July 12, 2020 · Leave a comment ·

I’m playing some kind of crazy catch up on the blogging here. I have a whole host of things I want to try write up before they disappear. This will hopefully be a quick one to jump on. Amongst the maelstrom that has been the … Continue reading Critical Perspectives in Practice
