Produsage Excitement

 Anyone else super excited to use your produsage assignment in real life?! I had SUCH a hard time deciding what I wanted to do for this assignment, but when I finally decided what I wanted to do, it felt like the perfect thing! It is a padlet for aerial teachers to interact with current students where they can share videos, comments, questions, and safety tips with one another. You can check it out here!

@sharonsaysso and my weekly insta community feature

Image
 So, I had this wonderful idea last night that I should do a weekly feature of the instagram communities that I partake in and why they are so great... usually as a fly on the wall, but hopefully I will become more active member as this class goes on and I get a bit more confident! Anyway, Sharon McMahon. America's Government Teacher. Curator of Facts & Fun. World Changer. Host of Government for Grownups. (All from her IG bio).  If you haven't heard of her or you don't follow her, go read this or watch this  to find out a little bit more.. or you can keep reading what I have to say. :)  The great thing about this community that she has created with her followers is that everyone is welcome.  She involves people through providing space to ask her questions (which she answers in her stories and shares her sources), answering her questions (which she then shares the results in her stories), and creating opportunities to give back to people in need. She is also...

So far on social media I have seen a rise in memes and a significant number of articles on the ridiculous rules and regulations on what women are allowed to wear while competing, the blind and deaf woman not being able to have a helper with her in Tokyo because of Covid restrictions (even though it seems like there are other actually unnecessary people that are allowed to be there), and so many more things that feel crazier than usual this year! Maybe we're all just more connected though.. What do you think?

How did you learn about instructional design?

Tonight I'm thinking about how I stumbled into this field and I'm curious about your stories as well! I was actually a year into going to back to school to get my prerequisites for PT school and was finishing up a semester of Chemistry and Lifespan Psychology and beginning to wonder if PT was really the way that I wanted to go... I had at least a year more of prerequisites and many observation hours to go before even applying to PT school and it just wasn't sitting right with me. Then one day, my sister in law was talking about how cool her friend's job is - she designs training materials, sometimes gets to record voice overs, sometimes does video editing, works with a lot of different people on different types of projects, one time had to create a mechanical bull (I know now that this isn't something I should necessarily expect, haha), and really really loves everything that she does. As someone who likes to work with others, wear multiple hats, and find solutions ...
