@TELedvisors Looking forward to comparing notes.

[Linda Corrin @LindaCorrin]

Attending the @ASCILITE #LearningAnalytics SIG webinar on the relationship between motivation & behaviour change by @GarivaldisFilia @kavya__r & Hazel Jones. Great discussion on what aspects of motivation we can capture through data to inform learning interventions.

@mart_compton Thankfully, 'VARK' learning styles have died mostly. It is a 100-year old idea about personal needs, and will live on through various reimaginings.

@oliveiraeduardo Richly deserved. Thank you for all that you contribute @oliveiraeduardo

@tavoer8 An intriguing image, but here is a cleaned up version with a baked-in attribution: G. H. Reavis, 1937 - Extract from 'The Animal School'. George Reavis was a principal of a school in southern USA.

Sound the 🚨research-based comedy alert🚨

This Friday Melbourne's finest improvisers [citation needed] make laughs from @Dr_Oli_Jones research into the upbeat topic of pollutants in our water/environment!

Will you leave relaxed from laughs or sad/mad/glad/affrad from science?

@mweller If "...just as our newlyweds have sunk their money into this old house and cannot afford to move simply because there is a portal to hell in the basement", then I suppose the trope dictates we escape, exorcise demons or die horribly?

@djplaner @timklapdor Some acute parallels there @djplaner and a great project.

@timklapdor "Templates are the opposite of what design should be – bespoke and suited to the specific intentions you are designing for." #ascilite22

I do love Laurillard's shared language as a way of expressing what a learning experience is - now we just need to better articulate the 'why'.

Asking #chatGPT about learning styles is interesting. If I don't ask it to critique them, I get pro-learning-styles blah blah about tailoring instruction to suit kinaesthetic learners etc

@leanner000 Timely, discordant advice from @EvaHeinrich2 https://t.co/wLWSxMel7x

[Leanne R @leanner000]

Speaking of what LD/EDs "do", a topic of #ascilite22 Day 3's 2.15pm panel, I appreciated William Billingsley's session on utilising detailed/descriptive curriculum mapping to show stakeholders how and where a qualification covers certain knowledge, skills, attributes and more.

[Penny Wheeler @pennyjw]

Monash's Jo Hook discontinued tracking the alignment of unit sites with template quality indicators because the yearly trend was so evident and strong #ascilite22

Some challenging ideas from Monash Uni's work templating courses #ASCILITE22

@eduridden Thanks for the hashtag @eduridden #BattleOfTheLMS at #ASCILITE2022 has come to a chaotic and humourous conclusion. We'll publish the full results on the Teldvisors blog at some point soon. https://t.co/cAAs8qvOt3
