  • The Canvas Insider, Unscripted IV

    “…who are the people in your neighborhood? The people that you meet each day.”

    - Sesame Street

    So much wisdom in that show. In this unscripted audiogram I wanted to explore those who know you, those who fuel you, and those who help you persevere through your work life. Your community.

    Thanks for listening and for considering whom your community consists of, and for investing in them.

    -Chris

  • The Canvas Insider, Unscripted III

    No one likes to feel dumb. Tech support has choices to make when their clients contact them about an issue. I’m exploring ways to be more of an ally versus an adversary in this unscripted audiogram.

  • The Canvas Insider, Unscripted II

    I’m preparing for a presentation in a conference later this spring, and wanted to share some ideas I’ve accumulated so far about what it means to be a Relational Technologist. I’d appreciate any thoughts, feedback, or helpful suggestions you might have to make my upcoming presentation better.

  • The Canvas Insider, Unscripted

    I’ve been wrestling with an issue in my University’s Canvas-land, and felt impulsive enough to simply hit record and verbally process. Rambling? Perhaps. Scattered? After the day of work I had, most likely. But I’m exploring the realm of supporting the diaspora of student personal technology…and when it fails for them.
