Starting to apply for instructional designer, or similar, positions. So much out there, but always appreciate any insight about openings.

Just plugging away at trying to finish my M.Ed. Capstone project. Decided to build a training course for my office (didn't realize how much information actually goes into the work I do!).

Infographics are always a great way to share information. "9 Rules for Digital Citizenship" https://t.co/Ax3Fat5L4O

These "rules" are not only things that we should all be learning/practicing, but the course design process should be advocating for these. #CI5351

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

This brief from Education Dive https://t.co/tqDyhrzR0e and these "8 Essential Qualities of a Digital Literacy Curriculum" https://t.co/NrY4zIQH5b bring up an interesting question about how to build digital literacy/citizenship into core content areas. #CI5351

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

Although I do not teach, I found these Connected Learning projects interesting to read through as each one demonstrates how different groups might learn together and from each other when there is a shared interest in a subject #CI5351 https://t.co/ml55L4V8tb

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

Reading a great article from this week's work in #CI5351. https://t.co/oNCRTYYyUF This is something that should be shared with every undergraduate and graduate student before they leave school.

Reading about inspiration, motivation & engagement. All I can think about is this video from 2013 https://t.co/RhxMLHFuUk While not about online learning or teaching, it's always one I watch to get inspired and push myself forward in life

This list works in education, too... [Love a good list, amirite @tjgilard?] 🙂👍 #ci5325 #onlinelearning

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

As with other topics in our #CI5325 course, I do enjoy a list when it comes to thinking of the importance of certain design aspects: "8 Reasons eLearning Navigation Should Be A Top Priority" https://t.co/M57bxIy3RX

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

An interesting on "The Importance of Interaction" when it comes to online communities https://t.co/77gkKGVsou #ci5325 #onlinelearning #onlinecommunities

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

A great TEDx Talk on digital literacies "The Essential Elements of Digital Literacies", Doug Belshaw https://t.co/mDx1sUQeSP

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

When looking into social presence in online learning, it's always nice to find links to pages that have lists of potential things to do to improve a course.

In between reading about social presence and a debate about objectivism vs constructivism, I thought it best to read see true crime. #helterskelter #mansonfamily #truecrime

[dr. angelica pazurek @pazureka]

Hey #ci5325! This will be an insightful conversation about inclusion in digital learning spaces with some incredible speakers. Webinar this Tues March 5 at 9am CST. Highly recommend!#onlinelearning

Going to attempt to do some homework today...but I think I might be a bit distracted.

[Taylor Gilard @tjgilard]

An interesting read about #DesignThinking. This is something that I have heard about but have not done too much reading on. Definitely will be exploring this more. #onlinelearning #ci5325 https://t.co/QwbcPPB9hH

Challenge #2 Home office version 2.0 where I spend a good amount of time studying and reading the articles each week. Also is now a third bedroom for the cat. She hides under one of the tables (my home office has moved a few times and I'm not "settled" in yet) #onlinelearning
