Next Wednesday I’ll be doing a presentation at the ACCS conference titled “Is Less More? What The Wire Has to Teach Us About Institutional IT” wherein I use clips from David Simon’s brilliant series The Wire to examine the lie that is “Do more with less” in institutions generally, but higher ed specifically.

Last week I had the good fortune of co-presenting with Tom Woodard and Brian Lamb at the NMC’s Symposium for the Future. The presentations were all supposed to look towards the future, and for our part we dreamed up a presentation that frames a Dystopian future wherein an education insurance salesman [...]
A Bava Bumrush of WordCamp NYC
Published by October 16th, 2009 in presentations, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 3 CommentsI’m pretty excited for the upcoming WordCamp in NYC, not only is it a wonderful excuse to go back home, but it is also shaping up to be one of the biggest WordPress shindigs ever.

I’m not always so good at sharing my presentation materials because a lot of what I do is improvised at the moment. I rarely, if ever, have a prepared talk about a specific topic, but develop a conceit around which to frame some ideas I have been thinking about.

I’m on the plane back from three days in beautiful San Juan, Puerto Rico, and I figured I’d try and capture it before it slips away—something which unfortunately happened with OpenEd 09. As I already noted here, I was invited down to San Juan by Antonio [...]

Published by June 25th, 2009 in insructional technology and presentations. 4 CommentsLooks like the good folks at Duke University’s Center for Instructional Technology put my presentation “Fragmented Identities: A Domain of One’s Own” up on YouTube. Quite frankly, I was afraid to watch the video because I have fond memories of the talk, and on a partial viewing my fears were confirmed—-I was all over [...]

It seems like I was at Blogfesores 2009 in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico two months ago, but it has only been a little over a week. I guess that what’s happen when you return to find UMW’s 14th [...]

Duke University’s CIT Showcase, 2009
Published by May 1st, 2009 in UMW Blogs, insructional technology and presentations. 4 CommentsI’ll be posting the video and some more commentary of the “Magic Trick Talk” I did last week at Duke when it’s available, although I’m a bit nervous about it because I am under the illusion the talk went well and I fear the video will burst my bubble.
