Big Changes in My LMS World Today
A couple of key things have begun to happen today. One I attended a meeting with my key IT people and the HR manager. Our HR system is a little old (okay very old) and has not really been updated for the size of staff we have currently. It was a great little system 10-15 […]
What are your kids texting about?
I was curious to find out the other day that my friend’s daughter (13) really doesn’t text about much at all, but does it continuously.
Latest LMS Implementation Issue – External Access
So one (of the many) things to keep me awake at night right now, in regards to my LMS implementation is the whole issue around access. Currently our intranet is not accessible externally.

Clark Aldrich was the last 2 questions on my mid-term last night.
I wrote (or clicked) my way through a mid-term last night for a Online Technology course, and yes I passed with flying colours Mom. I was pleasantly surprised for 2 reasons. I was interesting to work through a multiple choice test that actually covered everything taught so far, and was challenging at the same time. […]
Blog Action Day – Poverty (Tsunamika Dolls)
My friend at work that volunteered in India this past summer and the summer before brought me back a precious little gift. A Tsunamika doll. A symbol of living hope. “This project is conceived and executed by Upasana Design Studio of Auroville in the seaside villages of Auroville’s bioregion. Nearly 480 fisherwomen from 6 villages […]
Simple Clean Learning Example on BBC News
I just wanted to make note of this simple interactive bit of learning that was on the BBC News Science & Environment page from Friday. The title first caught my eye “Alien species are a problem in the UK – and invasive plants are causing some of the worst damage.” So I took a quick […]
LMS Name & Logo Created, If I Could Just Get the LMS to Look as Nice

Ooooh sounds so fancy you say. Then I played with some logo designs I’m sure Corporate Communications will never […]
