For Day 11 of The 12 Days of AI, the 20 minute task is to learn about TeacherMatic, a multi-feature AI tool that could be useful for HE educators. To complete today’s task I need to use TeacherMatic to create some classroom discussion topics, a plenary session activity and another activity of my choice. Sounds […]

At ACMI, there’s a wall-sized art installation with chart that maps the essential elements needed in (an advertising) campaign when “Selling to Australia”. The chart is most likely to be correct about the Australian-ness of these elements, and I’m also thinking that many of these might also be inherent to all humans (in varying degrees), […]

The first step is to find out more about current thinking and approaches towards product, which is why I made my way through the product-led fundamentals course by ProductLed. My experience of the course. It’s an interesting mini-course that does what it says (on the […]

Started making my way through “Make something wonderful” and it’s resonating with me, especially the bits about working as a team, value of work, production, being human and doing stuff that’s meaningful to you – discovering some great stuff as I go!
Found these cards at the bookshop – I was hoping they had a legit framework for decision making, but turns out they’re only great looking graphic design with semi-motivational quotes and pithy statements. Still cool, but not what expected or wanted.
Pushuperer for 2 years
I’ve just registered for The Push-Up Challenge 2023. I’ve now been a Pushuperer for 2 years, which is fantastic. Like the previous year, I’ll be completing 3,144 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health. Also like the previous year, I’ll continue to push and power-up to my Push-Up Challenge Playlist […]

Contagious (Book)
Notes on how I’m working to map the journey for educators who engage and interact with learning resources.
Value exchange activity
When it all goes well and everyone is in-sync and on-time and the project team are tight, it can be an intensive collective experience. When it’s not, it can be a bureaucratic hassle.
