My objective with this blog is to provide you with a broad-range of insights and resources regarding some tools, technologies, and strategies that help people learn and communicate. I address elements that relate to the worlds of higher education, K-12, and the corporate training/development. I seek to identify and relay patterns and trends in the quickly-changing landscapes out there, helping folks keep a pulse check on such items as:
- 1:1 computing, AI, personalized learning
- “The Forthcoming Walmart of Education”; changing business models, opportunities, and threats within the world of higher education
- The disruptive power of technology
- What elements should be in your learning ecosystem
- “Learning from the Living Room”
- Keeping students engaged
- Digital storytelling
- Multimedia (tools, techniques, trends, other)
- Mobile learning
- Building your global network
- Instructional design
- Web design and production
- …as well as other educationally-related topics.
To get an idea of my views on the above topics — along with some of the other topics I’ve covered in the last 3 years — please feel free to review my personal site at Calvin College. Here’s an example archives page covering all of 2009: http://www.calvin.edu/~dsc8/announcement_archives_2009.htm
I look forward to our future discussions as we try to make our individual and corporate contributions to the worlds of education…thereby making the entire world a better place.
Sincerely,
Daniel S. Christian
