After a brief hiatus, Carlo and I decided to dive back into the digital realm with another podcast.

I had the opportunity to speak at a conference just outside of Boston and was anxious to share my perspective on tech integration after sitting in on a presentation about a student-run help desk at Burlington High School.

Our video podcast can also be viewed on YouTube if you cannot view the video below.

Jane and I have taken a little time off to think about the direction we want to take this blog. The podcasts will resume shortly and we will share our new/refined direction with you then.

Thanks for waiting.

It all started with Alana’s post: Why Technology Training for Faculty is a Waste of Time (Not Really, but…) http://alanacallan.tumblr.com/post/35559558971/why-technology-training-for-faculty-is-a-waste-of-time. The conversation focuses on Learning Management Systems and how post secondary institutions need to get past just “teaching the tools”. Ideally, an instructional immersion of sorts would take place for staff as they venture through a pedagogical approach to the acquisition of tools and social media skills that enhance learning.

Tonight we reflect on our talk at the ECOO conference in Toronto. Jane and I gave a joint talk about how we have been using technology to record and timeshift lessons. For our talk, we actually brought along a VCR to show a 15 year old video showing how to use a modem to connect to a server to check your email using Pine…I am sure some of you can remember those days.

We really enjoyed using Google Hangouts last podcast that we have decided to move all the podcasts over to Hangouts.
