Today I did a talk for the LD teams at @Momentum_za Metropolitan. This is their @Mentimeter response to skills they have from previous career roles they unexpectedly use in LD work too. Would you add anything? See any skills you have too? #learning #edchat #Careers

This is what #workingatFourthRev looks like. And no, this isn't our trendy office; we're fully remote. This is just one of the @fourthrev people & culture events for their global teams to gather at and have fun for an afternoon. Today's stop: Cape Town #edtech #startup #WFH

@mrsarmstrongrox This sounds so good! Any particular strategies that were highlighted?

Hey internet hivemind. Who has examples of good rubrics? Especially with more project based work, I think the "adjective" rubric (student did this well, exceptionally etc) falls short and I'm looking for alternatives. #elearning #oers #rubrics #edtech #education

@ireland867 @UBCMET Totally, @ireland867! I would 100% do it all again if I could, or even just attend an in-person grad for old time's sake. Come on, @UBCMET, do it for us COVID-grads :P #UBCMET #Thunderbirds

[Jamie Dimitra Ashton @JamieDimitra]

A refresher never hurts, right? I find that even if I know all the info written in an article, reading it helps me stay tuned into consciously focusing on these types of approaches in my work. #instructionaldesign #elearning

Placing a teddy bear on the steps in memory of all the lost #indigenous children, their loved ones, & all who have been harmed by #residentialschools. Now is a time to mourn, to heal & for many to learn about the atrocities inflicted on #indigenouspeople in #Canada. #215children

So nice to see that the SA video has been viewed over 5000 times now. This was my first project in the @UBCMET program, and it's now used in the course as an example project for future students which is amazing
