25 Years of Ed Tech – Blogs
This week I was able to catch up a bit on some podcasts I subscribe to. One of the casts I’ve been enjoying lately is 25 Years of Ed Tech, a serialized version of Martin Weller’s book by the same title. Now audio books are plenty good by themselves, but this particular podcast has an…
Using Scrolling Panels in E-Learning (2020) #273
I have a back catalogue of small instructional design challenges and charrettes that I’ve been meaning to build into something bigger one day. That is obviously taking too long, so here’s a new idea. The Articulate E-Learning Heroes Community runs a weekly eLearning Challenge. I’ve mentioned before that often different IDs in different contexts will use…
Brutalist Worksheets
Checking out the Oldaily I came across Brutalist Worksheets. Here, Downes refers to a piece by Will Gourley by the same name, and adds “Now this isn’t a new trend, as evidenced by his references to worksheets created by the vertical foot on the photpocopier, but anyone taking courses online will immediately make the conceptual…

Playing Tag with H5P Mods – Adding Buttons
All tools have their limitations, that’s just a fact. What is nice about using something like H5P is that there is a bit of a community that works on customizing it in addition to the core team of developers. That’s actually how I managed to snag a flashcard content type (built in dialog cards) prior…
