We have a responsibility to not only help our students understand the content of our disciplines but also help them start their careers.
This means they should have a profile, should start developing a network, and learn how to participate as a professional through their profile and as members of a community.
Not only can you help students set up powerful LinkedIn profiles, you can use LinkedIn as a teaching and learning platform.
This week, I am going to highlight getting started with LinkedIn as well as strategies for using LinkedIn in the classroom.

As I break down the 5 steps of ADDIE, I will focus on how it can be used in the classroom.
The five steps of the ADDIE model are:
● Analysis ● Design ● Development ● Implementation ● Evaluation
The use of ADDIE means that you are taking a deliberate approach to designing your course. Everything has a purpose and is interconnected. The ADDIE method is applicable regardless of course modality.
This week, I am going to explain each of the ADDIE steps and provide ideas for using ADDIE to design your courses.

During two previous attempts at NaNoWriMo or the National Novel Writing Month, I failed to hit the 50,000 word mark while working on just one project. So I had to try something different.
I recognized that I could not find enough time to craft the words by hand. This year I switched to dictation and that made all the difference.
This week, I am going to share tips for successfully getting through a time consuming project like NaNoWriMo.

My inspiration for this episode comes from a wonderful Spanish professor named Theresa Baginski. She developed a series of study guides for her college-level Spanish classes.
A good study guide not only guides students through assigned readings, lectures, presentations, videos, handouts, etc., it also ties together goals and objectives, essential questions, key vocabulary and concepts, and formative activities.
This week, I am going to share tips for creating effective study guides to support lectures, videos, and reading assignments.

One tool that can turn a lecture from a passive activity to an active one is guided notes also known as skeleton notes. Guided notes can also be used for grasping the essential content from videos and reading assignments.
According to William L. Heward, a professor at the Ohio State University, Guided Notes are “Guided notes are instructor-prepared handouts that provide all students with background information and standard cues with specific spaces to write key facts, concepts, and/or relationships during the lecture.”
Guided notes can help students stay on task while listening to a lecture, watching a video, or reading a chapter. This can lead to increased academic performance.
This week, I am going to share tips for creating beneficial guided notes to support lectures, videos, and reading assignments.

With a lot less effort than starting from scratch, you can extract multiple learning assets out of a single piece of core content. For example, you can take a video file and extract an audio file and transcript that can create value for your students. You can then use these different parts to enhance LMS content pages or create OER content.
It is a strategy that I have used with a tremendous amount of success. This podcast has been repurposed into many different assets from blog posts to videos. Parts have also found their ways into books. The possibilities are boundless.
This week, I am going to share strategies for creating a core piece of content such as a video and then repurposing it into multiple learning assets.

This week we are going to talk about making your instruction more personal. My inspiration is coming from Ruth Colvin Clark’s book, Evidence-Based Training Methods. I am also inspired by all the entrepreneurial podcasts that I listen to. They try to make their content and ads as personal as possible.
We are going to focus on the social presence in this episode. Social presence is the human element. This is where students and the instructor engaged in dialog. Ideally, there should be open communication to develop group cohesion, build trust, and make connections. This is where the greatest amount of dialog takes place.
This week, I am going to share strategies you can use to make your instruction more personal. It starts with the language you use and how you use it.

I have participated in NaNoWriMo a few times. The first time resulted in my book, Read to Succeed. My last attempt has sparked progress to a book I am currently finalizing. I am hoping to have it released in the next couple of months. I am using this NaNoWriMo event as a catalyst to feed my latest book idea.
NaNoWriMo is a perfect vehicle for jump-starting a writing project. I think this is a wonderful challenge for students. It is a stretch goal, but it lets them know what is possible. Students will learn how to break down a large task into smaller, more manageable parts as well as manage a schedule to deliver on time.
This week, I am going to tell you about NaNoWriMo and my writing strategy. I will also encourage you to join me in this year’s NaNoWriMo.

When I was in the Air Force, I had taken courses on instructional systems design or ISD. I learned about Gagné's 9 Events of Instruction. As I was pursuing my degrees, I was exposed to ADDIE, which is a waterfall design method. Along the way, I also learned about agile programming and its underlying methodology. During my exploration, I learned how to apply agile programming to instructional design. I was not the only one seeing the connection.
Dr. Michael Allen developed a more rapid design methodology called SAM or the Successive Approximation Model. It uses agile iterative design as its core to test and improve ideas. The goal is to develop working modules quicker. You prototype a solution, test it, and then make updates.
This week, we are going to take a closer look at SAM and how it can be useful for your course design.
