Shawn Miller from Duke’s Center for Instructional Technology re-published my post “The UMW Blogs Story” that chronicles the work we have been doing over the last several years at the University of Mary Washington. I am pretty excited that the approach of UMW’s Division of Teaching and Learning Technologies is providing others with fodder for [...]

Publishing Platforms and Cross-Campus Cultivation
Published by October 1st, 2008 in Uncategorized. 6 CommentsDiscussing a Syndicated Lab Notebook
Published by July 11th, 2008 in insructional technology. 0 CommentsAt this year’s EDUCAUSE Southeast Regional conference UMW Biology professor Steve Gallik and I presented together on his Online Laboratory Manual project. I blogged this project last Fall, and it has exceeded just about every expectation we had set out for it —which were pretty high to start with. In short, Lablogs was the perfect [...]

So I’m finally returning to creating a discussion framework for the Reading Capital site. I will detail my thinking for the design of the site below (and in at least two subsequent posts), and I invite any and all recommendations and criticisms. It’s a model that is [...]
So, in an attempt to galvanize my mania to its most chaotically productive for Faculty Academy 2008, I’ll go on with this e-portfolio madness, as promised. However, the comments on part 1 are already making me wonder whether this post shouldn’t be written by D’Arcy, Chris, Phaedral, or Cole (or perhaps all of them)?

I just wish they would open up the comments on the front page so I could tell them as much. The comments are, indeed, open — my [...]
Shannon’s comment on my last post got moderated as spam (appropriately enough ), and I mistakenly filed it as spam. All of which led me back to the Spam Karma admin tab to retrieve her magical comment.

My very own WPMu blog
Published by September 11th, 2007 in WordPress and wordpress multi-user. 3 CommentsTruth be told, I really don’t consider bavatuesdays an Ed Tech blog. In fact, it is first and foremost a b-movie blog that never really got off the ground. Instructional technology has colonized this idea, and if you are brave enough to subscribe to this feed you probably have to deal with a [...]
That’s right, the Wordpress MediaWiki mashup is gaining some momentum. Just check out the Blogfolio del Dr. Mario NúñezMario, a self-proclaimed “Blogfesor” at the Recinto Universitario de Mayagüez in beautiful Puerto Rico. I love it!!! The other thing I love is that I got most of the credit when Andy Rush did most [...]
I just came across “Liar, Liar Pants on Fire”, the first of a number of blog posts by Errol Morris for the New York Times. Apparently he will be blogging a series of articles, and his initial post deals with photography’s relationship to truth. Here is a brief excerpt:
It is also interesting how a [...]
