    Ok and peeps: question. What do you see as some of the major changes coming down the pipe that we need to be aware of and adapt for in the next 5 years? Working on a 5 year plan and needing some ideas to bring in. Ready? Go.

    According to my son, my “crisis” voice is the same as my “you’re in trouble” voice. Well, you will be in trouble if you don’t get in the hallway during a tornado warning.

    Some of these look like they could have real value in higher ed circles. K12 teachers are often more open to discussions than higher ed instructors. I wonder why?

    Different forms of PD by Cult of Pedagogy.
    Shared from Imagine if we in higher education were evolving our PD approach as much as K-12 schools. We do this in spots for those willing. - but what if we embraced and required PD like teachers.

    Reply: Video can add presence by instructor curation, but video reruns cannot be a surrogate for presence.

    They aren’t your students from last semester, last year, or 5 years ago. But they ARE your students. What can you do as a teacher to reach them where they are, not where you wish or think they should be?

    This thread. has always been a major milestone read in my life. It changed how I saw evil, good, and love. And this movie can hopefully do the same for a new generation who will then read the book.

    Honestly, the boy who read in 6th grade is so excited to finally see the movie this weekend, because he saw himself in Meg, and it never crossed his mind that she wasn’t like him—he just knew he felt how she did and needed to be reminded that he was not powerless.

    As an online teacher, my students don’t seem to care about the production level quality of the videos I make. They seem more interested in whether the video content is quality and helps them better understand the material.

    If you’re an instructional designer or educational organization looking to develop an online course, how much should you invest in video production?
