As with #OER23 I’m going to say here that I plan to write more blog posts about #ReclaimOpen in due course (yet to happen for #OER23) but I want to capture a few key thoughts and takeaways from the event before they slip away from … Continue reading #ReclaimOpen – reclaiming human scale
So. Some news. I am leaving Canada, for a while at least. Some of you may remember that I decided to push myself right out of my comfort zone in 2019 and took a job as Deputy Provost at Athabasca University – Canada’s largest open … Continue reading Pushing myself out of my comfort zone – part 4
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 have a half-written post about much the same and … Continue reading Some notes on a #ds106radio broadcasting setup
