@P_A_Kirschner @amandaspielman8 @Ofstednews Only it's already quite overloaded with pet topics of people from the past. I'm ok with adding things if they take two out for each new one :)

@Gorka_Aresti @Yoriento Pero "Zona de ansiedad reducida" no vende tanto

[FIFPRO @FIFPRO]

FIFPRO is shocked and sickened by reports that professional footballer Amir Nasr-Azadani faces execution in Iran after campaigning for women’s rights and basic freedom in his country.

We stand in solidarity with Amir and call for the immediate removal of his punishment.

@Mr_T__Coach @DonaldClark I can agree that it would reward teachers (and on the cynical bit), I'm just skeptical that the instructional style, or value, will be a key factor for attracting students. Content creators in social media tend to end up dancing to the audience's tune.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Mr_T__Coach @DonaldClark Would they attract better teachers or just teachers doing whatever it takes for getting more students enrolled?

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Yoriento Es que en tu caso es complicado, porque el impacto de una intervención aislada es limitado a la fuerza, a menos que te dediques a llamar después para ver si han hecho los deberes 😁. Pero los catalizadores son importantes y necesarios!

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Yoriento Y eso que muchas veces no es ni experimentar, es solo asegurarte de que lo que haces tiene sentido y si no... pues no hacerlo 🤷🏽‍♂️ Me atrevo a decir que es más importante no hacer lo que no sirve que hacer lo que sí.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Yoriento Correcto, yo metía lo de traer a alguien que suelte frases iluminadas en el saco de "hacer algo". Tendrías que ver la resistencia que encuentro cuando explico que la formación que piden no hace falta porque no resolverá el problema.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Yoriento Las (no) soluciones homeopáticas que solo requieren tiempo y dinero, pero no esfuerzo, se venden muy bien cuando lo importante es "hacer algo" y no resolver un problema.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@MirjamN Yes, when we assess the requests that come, a certain number end up with 'training won't solve this problem'. Then the stakeholder has a bigger issue because the silver bullet is gone and the solution is suddenly unknown or likely to awake some sleeping corporate dragon.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@AndrewJacobsLnD @DonaldClark Also doing something with impact is several orders of magnitude more difficult than purchasing or developing some course. And convincing everyone that what everyone is doing is wrong is even more difficult. Lots of obstacles there just to get started.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@shackletonjones Well, they're right to be skeptical given what normally passes as a training solution. But then, if you deliver what they expect, then all is fine even with poor results (that never get measured). But if you're 'innovating' you'll be scrutinised and the pressure is high.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@Quinnovator It might be a bit of an overkill to convey the idea, but it's definitely effective! Thanks for sharing.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@nutrich @neilmosley5 Works for me though

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@JamesTheo @Anda19 @DrBethanMorgan That's a bold statement. Can you point me to some research on it? Because it's not just that the references I am familiar with suggest otherwise, but the whole comparison seems a bit off when there are so many mediating factors

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@hjarche One would say that harming the most defenseless people on earth is wrong enough so that nobody even thinks of doing it, but apparently many will ask for evidence of whether it 'works' 🙄

[Fred Baker @FredWBaker]

@drnoahglaser I get it. There is so much hype around ADDIE (p.s. not a model). It's really useful for thinking broadly about ID processes, but has become a buzzword. It's how people on the fringes of ID signal that they are in the know.

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@EfratFurst @drnoahglaser @VBlacik That is also my experience helping people with their first attempts at instructional design. They struggle to avoid mixing up the objectives for the students with those for themselves as trainers and for the institution. Framing how they think about the goals tends to help

[David Gutiérrez @deformador]

@steph_moore To be honest, my edu psych teachers didn't move an inch from lecturing+mpc quiz while they were praising the wonders of meaningful learning, relevant feedback and the like. That doesn't exactly help :(
