In an insightful article, Ken Majer (full disclosure, a boss of mine many years ago) has written about the need to have the right culture before executing strategy. And this strikes me as a valuable contribution to thinking about effective change in the transformation of L&D in the Revolution. I have argued that you can get some benefits from the Revolution without having an optimized culture, but you’re not going to tap into the full potential.

There are many conferences I would love to be able to attend, but most people can only accommodate one or two each year. The backchannel is an excellent resource for learning from a conference or event, even if you are unable to attend in-person.

Recently, I was writing storyboards. When I came to a scenario, I felt that old, familiar feeling coming on: What names should I use for the characters? It’s a strange sort of writer’s block. We all know lots of names, right? And we couldn’t possibly have used all of them in one set of storyboards. And yet, if you’re like me, you’ve found yourself staring out the window, trying to think of all the people you know, searching for a name that brings the scenario to life.

With many offices today having more relaxed policies, it isn’t uncommon to see dogs and cats roaming in between cubicles or taking afternoon naps under windows. Pets can be a great addition to an office, boosting office morale and creating a more enjoyable workspace. While some people love office dogs and cats, others do not, and the last thing you want in bringing your pet to the office is to hurt relationships with coworkers.

There still aren’t enough tech workers, and enterprises are paying the price. The shortage of qualified IT workers has been an ongoing problem in the business world for many years already, and new research suggests there’s no end in sight. Twenty-five percent of projects today are abandoned as a result, and even those that do get finished are delayed by an average of five months.

Facing a transformative future, academic publishing evolves. What will academic publishing look like in five years? This is a complex question, as the field has already shifted so far over the past decade. The one sure thing is that there are further changes to come, and publishers that are not quick to adjust and embrace modern technologies may find themselves far out of step with the mainstream.

One of the things I realized as I was planning this presentation, is that I had assumed that by now school leaders would know they shouldn't create a policy to specifically exclude students with disabilities (special needs students). It wasn't something I've really included in the most recent set of presentations. There is brief mention of this in my iNACOL publication but basically I felt it was something that was obvious.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

I was asked to write an opinion piece for the Western Morning News earlier this week as a response to the comments from Ofsted and their advisers on the use of technology in schools. Many teachers are left wondering whether personal technologies such as smartphones actually have a place in education and what risks and threats accompany them. My view is that children can and do use technology to support their learning but they need to be guided to do so responsibly.
