presentations from charles jennings post a comment read more road to the phd some thoughts get link facebook x pinterest email other apps august 13 2010 last week i spoke to a friend of mine who is already pursuing a phd said friend is at the dissertation stage if i am not mistaken i let her know that i am considering a phd having overcome my fear of writing long research based passages and having grown accustomed to the master s level difficulty i ve decided to up my game since i like learning new things i also aspire to one day be a professor so a phd is generally a must in these cases after many professors in many different fields have encouraged me to go for it i ve started compiling a spreadsheet of which schools have what i am interested in what the requirements for entry and exit are who the movers and shakers are i e potential advisors and what other important things are nearby i e centers of research that those schools collaborate with another major consideration is cost where are the stipends and assistantships you don t go into a phd program or the professoriate for that matter post a comment read more how important is encoding get link facebook x pinterest email other apps august 09 2010 here s some non random stream of consciousness for you as far as language goes how important is encoding to you does encoding really matter what do i mean by encoding the alphabet you use whether you represent words as syllables as characters as letters and how you put all that together the impetus for this though process comes from a pretty silly in my opinion facebook group that i was invited to a while back the group is called save the greek language kinda funny if you ask me because i don t think that the greek language is in any danger of being lost the details of the group say the following for the original look at the end of the blog post greek is one of the most beautiful languages english has a far reach and is a requirement greeklish emphasis added on the other hand is nothing mixed up messed up words that are convenient we will forget the greek we know prefer to write in greek script you will be expressing yours post a comment read more prezi revisited get link facebook x pinterest email other apps august 06 2010 i came across this prezi course introduction to an intro to learning on the cloud course i have to say that from a teaching and learning perspective the course looks pretty compelling this introduction was interesting as well however there is a big caveat i don t know if this was a self paced presentation or if it was used in an in class presentation as an in class presentation i can see this prezi working however as a voiceless self paced presentation it s a major fail about 40 seconds in having clicked next next next the animations in this prezi made me nauseated the the point that i needed to stop viewing it i wonder if this was a case of flashy prezi use or just a good presentation for the wrong medium teaching learning in the cloud on prezi post a comment read more does language influence culture get link facebook x pinterest email other apps august 02 2010 here s an interesting article on the wall street journal about the relationship of language and culture if you haven t studies psychology or applied linguistics it s an interesting thought provoking article to get you primed for further exploration into the topic of language and culture and if you are not interested in these topics enough to study them further then it s a nice conversation or ice breaker topic for any meetups or cocktail parties that you go to the author a university professor writes that chomsky s universals have not withstood scrutiny i am only starting to to immerse myself in psycholinguistics so i don t really know much about the subject other than the primers on chomsky s universal grammar but as far as i know chomsky keeps refining his hypothesis so if one version of the hypothesis has some issues as more knowledge on the subject is gained and as more studies are conducted we see newer interpretations of t 2 comments read more what s happening in the ivory tower get link facebook x pinterest email other apps july 31 2010 i came across a blog post on insidehighered recently about phd programs and the disappearing tenure track job market and how phd programs should help their students to do something more than research and specialization in an area that has a focus on tenure track professorial jobs because as we all know adjunct instructor pay stinks the main point of the author here is that phd programs should include teacher education because simply knowing your subject matter does not make you a great teacher of said subject matter higher ed management so you know the inner workings of your environment leadership development media training now off the bat i don t get the media training piece perhaps someone could explain this to me leadership development well shouldn t you have had this when you were working on a master s degree as part of my mba msit and med i ve worked in teams for projects even as an upper level undergrad taking grad level science courses post a

video on the harvard business review the other day on how knowledge management is moving away from the repository as goal here s the transcript of the video one of the interesting ways of capturing the problems with traditional knowledge management is it came at knowledge from a stocks viewpoint a stocks of knowledge the problem is we have knowledge it s distributed and dispersed throughout the organization how do we capture it and make it available to others certainly a big challenge i don t want to diminish that as a value but i think what people found as they tried to implement the various systems and methodologies to do that is there wasn t really a lot of motivation for people to invest the time and effort to develop and define those stocks and make them available as part of a broader repository this kind of approach really shifts the attention from stocks of knowledge what we know today to defining and developing new k post a comment read more technology illiterate

the same thing absolutely nothing in the past couple of years i ve heard and read so much about how these students process things differently and that we need to adapt our ways of teaching to suit their unique learning preferences and technology savvyness now i am a member of this generation granted i am from the early stages of this generation having been born in the early 80s but i am a member of this generation nonetheless being a member of this generation i call all this bs i ve actually been thinking about doing research and writing about it and hopefully getting published my main line of though is this just because a certain group of individuals has grown up around technology it doesn t mean that they know how to use it effectively the main comparison that i can make is cars i

integration in the library catalog and the most recent one about mobile applications for libraries this brought me back to my days as an msit student back in those days i took many opportunities to work on homework class projects that dealt directly with library systems some examples are it library mergers and integration patron privacy and project wormhole which is what these profhacker posts reminded me of project wormhole yeah i used imaginative names was a project i worked on for an object oriented programming course the main idea was that each patron would have a customized library homepage that they would log onto and they would have a widgetized hud of all of their information needs the patrons already have a library barcode and a student staff id number so there isn t really a need to create yet another log on they just need to log on with information tha post a comment read more why johnny can t code get link facebook x pinterest email other apps july 16 2010 a month or

finger on it well yesterday reading about child development specifically language development it hit me here s an excerpt only there s a rub most of these later innovations were brought to us by programmers who first honed their abilities with line programming languages like basic yes they mostly use higher level languages now stacking and organizing object oriented services or using other

pinterest email other apps july 08 2010 well last night blackboard went on the borg trail again resistance is futile you will be acquired this time around it s wimba and elluminate that are up on the acquisition block some people have rejoiced at news of the acquistion while others have dissenting opinions same link as the rejoice just scroll down from a business point of view i think that blackboard did the right thing they obviously had a deficiency in their product open source alternatives like sakai and moodle were doing what blackboard is doing with their current lms product so they needed a differentiator even if you do use moodle or sakai you still need synchronous capabilities don t you so you can be happy with your open source lms and still buy a blackboard product also by buying two products in the same category you re eliminating competition of course there is the side that makes business sense in the fiscal competitive sense and the business side that make 1

with completing templated exercises it s quite a fascinating read and i encourage all of you to read through it and think about it this piece reminded me of my knowledge management days as an mba student and as an instructional design student in thinking about corporate learning a few nights ago however this piece had relevance in the academia context as well in the form of a discussion about plagiarism academic honesty pick whichever term you see fit glass half empty glass half full same thing charles writes firstly let s clear something up we shouldn t confuse what l d training

reading the book second language teaching and learning in the net generation it was an interesting book recommended for both instructional designers and language teachers alike some chapters as admittedly better than others but as a whole the book was quite good related note follow me on goodreads hot on the heels of this i came across a post on profhacker called how are you going to grade this evaluating classroom blogs instructors in our instructional design program drilled into us the by now infamous wiifm what s in it for me learners are going to ask this before they take any course or learning event that you design well the question that i and my fellow students were asking once we were in the course was how is this assignment going to be graded learning is all nice and dandy but in the end we need to achieve a certain grade and knowing the grading rubric helps us focus our work in any case thi post a comment read more ddc and it s utility in public libraries get link facebook x pinterest email other apps june 18 2010 so here is a library related post a while back a long while back according the date i came across this article on lis news a short essay on the utility of the dewey decimal system in public libraries for as long as i can remember there has been debate in the public library sphere as to whether to continue to use the dewey decimal system henceforth ddc or if they should switch to something called bisac if you ve ever walked into a bookstore in the us and probably in canada as well the shelves are organized by the bisac system the argument for bisac is that it s easy for people to find books whereas in ddc or in lc numberings it s not as easy now don t get me wrong i don t think that dewey is infallible it is after all a man made system and as such it has flaws however i could not really put my finger on why i would not like my public library to switch to bisac and ...
