Where does the time go? Ever thought of tracking it?
I’ve convinced my Director that we need to dedicate some of my time to be more concentrated soley on the LMS implementation and development. Now that the big projects for the year have either happened or are well under way, my time now is a little more free for flexibility. The question came up though, […]
Understanding Generational Differences
I attended a session today on understanding our own generational biases and in turn being able to better relate to working and integrating with other generations. Here are some of the notes I took today. There are often 5-6 different generations working in any given environment. By the time many of us (30s-40s years old) […]

Have you searched Simple Spark today?
I’m not sure how often you may have looked through this catalogue of web applications, but I think that about once a month I’m looking for something new for one project or another. Simple Spark has updated their look and features in what appears to be a great new format. They offer over 8500 different […]
Second Try at Second Life
So I was convinced by my friend Angela and by a presentation that I went to by Alan Levine (“I’m busy enough…What do I need Second Life for?”) that I should maybe give this Second Life thing a second chance. I found it hysterical that Angela and Alan had both said that they love to […]
One year later and I’m at 275 posts…oh this makes it 276
I was really hoping that by the end of the AG08 I would be at 275 posts and this I achieved. I started blogging when I returned from last year’s conference (my first) and since then I’ve tried to keep most of my posts about elearning. Occasionally I throw in some items that are just […]

My Favourite Part of the AG08
Okay…go on….guess…. For a bunch of people immersed in doing everything and all online, digitally, and virtually the one thing I kept hearing over and over (and reading on blogs) was how great it was to meet face-to-face. This too was my favourite part of the whole experience. The conference generates a billion ideas. Some […]
