HiTech Podcast - 169 | Write First, Meet Later ft. Writebook
play

10/22/24 • 45 min

Episode 169, we continue Season 8 by discussing the importance of online collaboration and writing-first approaches. In this thought-provoking conversation, we explore why reflection and taking time to think first are crucial in both professional and educational settings. Prioritizing written communication can help avoid excessive meetings where we talk about work rather than doing it. In classrooms, we argue that writing before discussing allows students to think, reflect, and rework their ideas, leading to more productive conversations. We also, introduce 37signals' cool tool Writebook, which allows users to publish blogs or books online for free.

Dr. Timothy Shea joins us for episode 4 in the ungrading series to discuss HOW we even assess ungrading. Isn't the point not to assess? Wrong. Assessment and feedback are key to learning, but numerical/alphabetical grades are not. Listen in for how Dr. Shea has been doing this for decades! He also leaves us with an oldie but a goodie: Twitter for Education. He still uses Twitter for his professional purposes and trains students how to effectively engage in social media tools.

play

03/14/23 • 56 min

The series continues with an informational how-to: setting up ungrading in an LMS! Now, this is not a detailed, step-by-step walkthrough for every LMS. This is more of a general guideline for what it takes to do ungrading in an LMS. There are a lot of settings that can get in the way, so tune in to get a sense for what you need to watch for when doing ungrading in your course. We also leave you with TechSmith's Snagit, a fantastic tool for all image and video capture. Josh uses it for his teaching, so check out why he thinks it stands out.

Long-standing friend of the podcast, Dr. Justin Harbin, returns to help us establish the rationale for ungrading. What's its purpose? Is it "good?" Should we be doing it or is it a fad? Answer all of these questions and more when you tune into episode 92. And then, Justin leaves us with an excellent tool called Research Rabbit. This tool can help automate the discovery of new materials, making literature reviews and all levels of research that much easier. Even better: they operate on an open-source platform and methodology. Check it out today! For more on our conversation, check out the episode page here.
