Day 5: Personal project update

A brief documentation of progress on my personal project.

ADDIE Process


Academic resource consulted

The Five Resources of Critical Digital Literacy: A framework for curriculum integration, Hinrichsen & Coombs (2013)

My project

Follow the link to see what I'm attempting to do with one of my module frameworks: #EngCS in 2017. (I might restrict access to members of this year's PGCE class later on.)

Reflection: Day 4

You guessed it, first some notes (PNI) to structure my thinking:

P – Opportunity to practice and learn together is of immense value!

N – Presentations via Skype do not work well. Perhaps consider creating a video of your presentation, and opening up a video-conferencing platform for discussion after the video has been watched? (NB to consider network-platform compatibility, e.g. Google server hosted on TENET.)

I – Personal equipment seem to trump professional equipment for our purposes. Perhaps focus more on pre/post-production skills?

Video review

Looking back at the videos we produced yesterday, and engaging in constructive feedback discussions.

Reflection: Day 3

You guessed it, first some notes (PNI) to structure my thinking:

P – Exploring how video can work for Research, Education and Science Communication – intersections! Also, making our own videos was great fun :D

N – Issues of access and quality. Barriers in terms of cost of entry/participation.

I – Opportunities such as  AVLM 2017,
and trying out post-production on YouTube (after hours).

Day 3: Practicals

Group Activity 1

Find a bad educational video.
Group: Reginald, Anthony, and Willie.

Comment: Camera work is unstable, sound is inconsistent, content is cringe-worthy. Message/purpose is lost (on the audience)?


Day 3: Class notes

Something from our (digital) world:

I want a Myo!!!







Reflection: Day 2

As before, some preliminary notes (PNI) to structure my thinking:

P – Curation of a professional profile (in the context of multiple digital identities). ADA WiFi is Mac-friendly now :) ADDIE design in terms of our personal projects helped clarify considerations and practicalities of what we plan to do and how.

N – Networking do's and dont's – especially when it comes to open digital scholarship – needs deeper exploration. How does what we share influence the ownership/novelty/value of our scholarly work? (Dissertations/articles in terms of University requirements and journals?)

I – Creating digital content and the services available to us at our institutions.
