Crossing the Streams Audio Recording and Speech to GDocs

February 3, 2015April 5, 2022 cogdog

Sometimes I get lucky and two ideas on different paths cross paths right in front of me. It’s a matter of just reaching out and grabbing them. Brian had an idea for our You Show Audio unit to add (or […]

Alan’s Way of Audio Recording Presentations

February 3, 2015March 5, 2015 cogdog

For today’s You Show Prime Time event, TRU’s Jon Fulton did a great session on audio recording techniques and equipment. I’m usually thinking about ways to archive, capture such sessions for those who could not attend due to time or […]

And Thus, Dog Food Shall Be Eaten

January 23, 2015March 5, 2015 cogdog

Sure it’s cliché. And I have a dog house full of metaphors. But it seems a tad hypocritical to be asking participants in the You Show to be creating portfolios and sites and not be doing it myself. It’s one […]

Dealing With the Blog Flow

January 22, 2015March 5, 2015 cogdog

I’ve been involved with, building sites for and participating in courses/etc that work like the You Show where we syndicate in the work of participants. It’s marvelous. And overwhelming. While we create the main blog flow and can subdivide, e.g. […]

Introduction to Storytelling (Experiential Learning Series talk)

January 16, 2015March 5, 2015 cogdog

This as a presentation on January 16, 2015 as part of the TRU Experiential Learning Series 11:30am-12:20pm. A hook of interest, the shape of a narrative, a character to care about, suspension of belief, using less, media metaphors are techniques […]

Storymaking: What Works

January 13, 2015March 5, 2015 cogdog

This was an introductory presentation for The You Show (originally posted as a You Show event) “Storytelling” is a long time resident of the charts of educational ideas. As a topic of workshops and presentations (I’ve done plenty), books (none […]

Creative Commons Ought to Travel With the Media

December 3, 2014March 5, 2015 cogdog

From some banter via twitter this morning with Clint Lalonde and Pat Lockley, it occurred to me a great challenge to Creative Commons is that the license is metadata that is usually separated from the content it refers too– e.g. […]

The Storybox Materializes at ETUG

November 26, 2014March 10, 2015 cogdog

Two weeks ago I was in Vancouver for the ETUG Fall 2014 Workshop, what a great gathering and with their un-conference format, a refreshing experience from the typical conference grueling treadmill present-o-rama format. I was not sure I would stand […]

The Googling Eye: Mashup Poster Re-Deconstucted

November 9, 2014March 5, 2015 cogdog

Of all the creative assignments from DS106 (of which there are more than 730, that is so un-massive) maybe my favorites are the re-edits of movie posters. If any institution ever wanted a class taught in remixing old movie posters… […]

The You Show Videos

Probably the most rewarding thing Brian and I did on the You Show was our series of introductory videos. The ironic thing is that they are not even essential to the “content.” I’ve been thinking about that nearly all of […]

A Two Dog Theme Demo

Most of the time it’s intentional, but I do not always plan to use a dog metaphor. It just happens. In setting up the trubox multisite as a place for You Show participants to start their blogs, I came up […]
