English can be a real pest, and even native speakers find themselves stumbling over some stubbornly tricky words. Here are the 10 most difficult ones.

@pazureka Thank you @pazureka! Have a great night everyone!

A9: I’m currently researching ways to use AR & Machine Learning, within social communities, to fast-track learning. The idea is that using tech to bring content to life will create real-world experiences for all learners prior to leaving an educational environment #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A8: I really feel as though Augmented Reality is going to splinter off in different plausible avenues and, in conjunction with VR headsets/tools, really bring learning to life in ways we've not yet realized. Edgar Dale would be proud indeed! #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A7: Dr. @pazureka !!! I am so inspired not only in the effectiveness of her course structure, but also by the fact that she can effectively fit a semester course into only 3 weeks and still inspire her students! #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A6: YES! Per the course text: "Distance Education works well if designed well, and taught well. What works effectively in traditional education is a STARTING POINT for what works in distance education; equivalency should be the goal."

Q5: Distance EDUCATORS must be very patient, familiar with the course content & structure, & must understand various learning styles/levels of their students. The EDUCATOR should be very familiar with technology & tech support. #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

Q4: Distance LEARNERS absolutely must be patient and focused, especially in an online synchronous classroom. They also need to understand that sometimes technology fails. Time management skills are also imperative. #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A3: Some of the challenges are trying to remotely explain technology hiccups to students who aren’t necessarily tech savvy; only in the class for the content itself. Sometimes, this can eat into a good portion of a class, & can be frustrating for everyone. #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A2: Teaching students on the other side of the world from my home office wouldn’t be possible without the distance education technologies available today! #DistanceEdChat

[Mary @2020LDT]

A1: My first exposure to distance learning was in 1996 as the undergrad assistant for a professor working on his Master's in Distance Learning. The following year I took an ITV course. At the time it was pretty impressive, but not even close to today's standards. #DistanceEdChat

@DrDeePea2 Yes! You have me thinking about critical practices... critical digital pedagogy and instructional design. https://t.co/JFeKHoME2M

[dr. angelica pazurek @pazureka]

"The digital isn’t magic. It isn’t mysterious. It’s regular human communication astride a new medium." Great talk about critical instructional design & digital pedagogy by @slamteacher #ci5321 #DistanceEducation https://t.co/rxpUPHnEqL

"#EdTech is set to reach $252 billion by 2020. @NJIT reports “augmented reality has the potential to revolutionise learning in primary and secondary schools more than any other technology has done in the recent past”. #ci5321

Microlearning is one of those terms you've heard somewhere in the sphere of L&D. - An especially hot topic in a professional increasingly occupied with mobile devices, microlearning is the perfect content accompaniment to adapting learning technologies.

Educational travel is like riding a bike. How?

1. It’s WAY easier than you think.
2. You get to see cool stuff.
3. You can win $20K just for expressing interest. (Okay, so this one’s only about travel.)

If you hear machine learning and think Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator, you're probably not alone. But in real life, machine learning is all around us, whether it's personalised playlists or Netflix suggestions, machine learning could be the future:
