rethinking my blog: work sheet
Today I start with the dreaded 'rethinking of my blog' exercise. I was putting it off, could not stop thinking about it and ... well, there is a lot of room for improvement so I am starting it today.
Procrastination demands that I first google possible strategies or frameworks I could use:
be a more productive blogger/
or immersing myself in Building a Better blog
or why not stick to the thing I strive for? better karma: 10 ways to improve your blog karma
No matter how much I procrastinate, I will have to dive into it.
Things I will be working on:
- making a writer schedule;
- thinking in the long-term with blog posts;
- my info needs to be easier to access;
- structure, structure, structure!!!
Add-ons for Firefox (anything that can enhance posts):
post-wisdom (helps with checking post necessities)
Scribefire (an editing help)

vodcasting in education2.0 presentation
For the upcoming conference of Online Educa Berlin, I made a presentation on vodcasting in Education2.0. The presentation is based on a pilot project that ITM is running with international students this year.
The project is quite challenging because of the multimedia and technological demands, but if we can launch a couple of students into really making use of vodcasting, then it would add to the capacity building once they go back to their home countries.

enlightening conference
What a wonderful conference it was in Fredericton, New Brunswick on mobile learning. Government, universities and research centers were represented and attended. It was a real treed to be able to speak in front of such an enlightened audience. The speakers were the cream of the crop on mobile learning: John Traxler, Steve Wexler, Stella Lee, Kevin Harvey and me (me not being cream, just soje).
My presentation focused on mobile learning projects and social media to support the participants in those mobile projects. The audience engaged in the presentation making it an extra interactive moment adding to the exchange of all our knowledge.
Some of the presentations were taped, if interested you can look at them on ustream.tv/ignatia
It got me thinking about possible partnerships and … reshaping my blog – adding presentations, papers and abstracts.
