Week 6 - Shaw Corporate meeting

Web/phone discussion of Professional Development progress delivering Google Sheets instruction.

So far, both Miles and Doug are happy with the progress. They agreed to begin looking at delivering the instruction live. So far, they believe the instruction may work with an on-boarding session, but we will see if there is interest as a standalone session.

Since the meeting was done as a call, there are no images associated with the discussion this time. We did go over the progression of training and the duration of each point of instruction. We talked about the importance of evaluation and how to implement it. We also spoke about how much of the live instruction might be incorporated into the desired hosted instruction, what the live instruction will indicate about the deficiencies in the instruction, location considerations, as well as the participants (to a degree). We agreed to record the online instruction as .mp4 using Camtasia, and edited (finalized) with Adobe Final Cut. This is tentative depending on timing, resources, and preferences of the person assigned to post the content.

Week 12

Week 12 looks like we are all just going to have to get used to this new reality. Working from home makes the days seem to go by even faster.... maybe that is just me. My Professional Development project presentation is this week. I have had two meetings to practice and get feedback from Miles Ford and Doug Dillard. They have been really good to work with, and very helpful. I am fortunate to work for a company that allows the education department to spend so much time on a project like mine. While the Google Sheets project is something they want to add to their LinkedIn Learning, a live presentation is not how they will do it. I recorded both practice sessions - I will not bore you with the recording here, but here is a screen shot of the first practice..... 1st practice with Doug Dillard - 4/1 Originally my presentation was going to be to a group of "real" learners - face to face. Since Shaw disallowed employees from making site visits a couple of weeks ago, this a...

COVID-19 looks like it might adversely affect the semester. My company (Shaw Industries) is asking employees not to travel between sites unless necessary to do their jobs. So far, this has not played into my staff development project, but I may be asked to present my instruction online. As things are right now, I will not be allowed to present my lesson in person at a Shaw facility that is not Tricycle. My boss (Aernout Hetem) has asked all Tricycle employees to work from home as well. I do not know how this will effect my grade, but I will have to do as the company requests. I have put a lot of work into this lesson so far - here's hoping. Similarly, my Instructional Technologist at Dalton State is spending the week making sure that all classes can be delivered online if asked to do so. The University System of Georgia at Athens has asked all the state schools to be prepared to go totally online if needed. What will this do for students studying medicine - those that require cli...
