From ETMOOC to OOE
Well it happened, our school board approved our one-to-one technology plan. As part of that plan I have proposed a yearlong edtech professional development experience.
My professional development plan for the 2013-2014 school year is based on what we are calling an Open Online Experience (#OOE go ahead say it out loud).…

The New York Public Library recently introduced one of the niftiest tools I’ve seen on the web in a while. It allows you to take “stereograms“, those side-by-side images that look almost exactly the same and when viewed together create a sense of depth, and turn them into animated GIFs.…

Something that I haven’t given as much blog attention here as I would have liked so far this semester is the vibrant community that has sprung up around our school’s Introduction to Guitar class. Having had students post their work regularly to a wiki site in past years, I wanted to incorporate some of the design lessons I learned in #Philosophy12 and create a site that could function as a hub of creation, collaboration, and community that would serve not only our school’s face-to-face guitar students, but also offer wayfinding musicians on the open web a place to play, learn, and offer their own expertise to one another.…

“Beyond access and cost: a primary benefit of open education insofar as it is not merely open but opening, is the opportunity for networked transcontextualism. A planetary double-take.”
Gardner Campbell, Open Ed’12
Very unlike myself (a prolific starter and a rather feeble finisher) I managed to submit my digital artefact for “final assessment” in the #edcmooc.…

Jim Groom opened kicked down a door at the end of 2010. DS106 was the apo kalupsis which tore away the veil that had concealed the sumptuously rich, and often darkly funny nature of digital storytelling from my perception. Prior to yanking the covering from my eyes, video documentary was all I could imagine when I heard the term. Lost as I was amid the ’80′s pop-culture references in the course, and even though I had to drop active participation after a few weeks, I still caught the ds106 virus badly enough to forever inoculate me against any concept of boundaries to digital stories.…

Poem created using the Visual Poet app on my i-Pad
This image was created using a new digital storytelling app that was recommended to me called Visual Poet. It is fun to create with, but I am underwhelmed by the quality of the resulting image.…

Sisutyl!
Peter Jensen paints a double-headed sea serpent on our house in the Whittaker neighborhood
I came home from a walk last week, and a double-headed sea serpent was appearing on the wall of our house.
A Sisutyl (also spelled Sisiutl) is a dramatic supernatural creature, and it is one of the most high ranking crests in Kwagiulth culture.…

Two flavors of this story, a series of comic renderings (done via the Halftone iPhone app) or an extended storify.
A few thoughts. The whole ideas seemed like a fun way to pass the time via tweets, photos, some audio.…
