Our learning journeys evolve over our lifetime—and it sometimes takes us time to find our paths. I hope you’ll join me as I explore the design and writing of learning, information, and content on my new website.

This month, I'm looking at what #intentional technology looks like, and what questions you can ask yourself to guide how you use technology in digital and analog spaces. #DigitalMinimalism #DesignThinking #DigitalWorkflows https://t.co/8UUyqKEgiq

#Books mean a lot to me. Last year I read a record number of books. I'm asked a lot of questions as a #bibliophile, so I took the time to reflect on these questions and share ways add reading and literacy into your own life. #reading https://t.co/tSTA9mbr9x

I've always told my husband to send me on a walk if I seemed like I had something on my mind. The #CreativePractice of walking to think allows us to connect the dots between ideas; solve wicked problems; and make sense of the world. #Design #Writing https://t.co/GmUZLn3PNj

We had an absolute blast at the Backyard Bash! 🎶🍻 Huge thanks to everyone who came out to sing, dance, and celebrate with us, all for a great cause!

This is truly one of our favorite events of the year, knowing that all the proceeds went to help fund @michiganstateu’s Community Music School’s financial assistance program. As arts and music programs continue to be de-funded across the country, we’re glad to play a part in trying to keep the music alive 💚

[Home Free @HomeFreeGuys]

One Last Good Time: https://t.co/a0qEjw8Tsy

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

I was lucky enough to see @sweetlowmusicco in 2022. Unfortunately, they never released recordings before breaking up. Imagine my delight to find One Last Good Time (feat. @_theAustinBrown, @TimFoustMusic, @erniehalter, Luisa Marion, & Chris Chatham) by Jeffery East in Spotify!

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

I hope they keep it up!

2024 is 75% complete.

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

The project of designing and developing a portfolio website helped me reflect on my experiences in the graduate program and certificate as well as my future goals.

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

You may remember I graduated from the University of Missouri - Columbia in May. Instead of a graduate thesis, I created a portfolio website as part of my graduation requirements.

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

The portfolio highlights work I completed in the Learning Technologies and Design program and User Experience and Usability graduate certificate.

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

One reason I became a designer is good design transcends discipline—and we can often apply these principles to our practice. I loved editing this blog post for my former colleague.

[Model eLearning @modelelearning]

As designers, we can observe good design and apply the principles to our practice. Former team member Dave explores how Lego implements good learning design—and some areas for improvement. #InstructionalDesign #eLearning https://t.co/ulaUrQCLOR

@jjjohnson01 Thanks! :)

[Jessica M. Bishop @EyesLifted]

Oh, hello. It’s been a while. After three long years of graduate school, I’ve turned in my final assignments—and I’m now learning to be present in the strange waiting period between student and graduate. 🎓
