I just joined ASTD - the American Society for Training and Development. I was inspired after reading the Engaged Learning blog and chatting with the author for a bit. He is the head of the Social Learning Special Interest Group for one of ASTD’s chapters. So, are there any other ASTD members out there? How active is ASTD in the Boston Metro-West area?

This week in class we are talking more about CSCL - Computer Supported Collaborative Learning. So far, I am a little perplexed. I need to go through the readings AGAIN. Unfortunately we are out of printer ink, so I may put in another plea to go buy a new printer tonight. This week we are covering Concept and Knowledge Maps, scaffolding, using Excel to make a concept map, and explaining academic tasks to students.

I want to go to this conference. Not sure I can - travel and expense freezes all over the place. It is 100% relevant to my job - sigh!! Authored by gminks. Hosted by Edublogs.

A CALL FOR VISUAL LITERACY. In many organizations, the beginning and end of any business activity is marked by the PowerPoint presentation. In the early stages of an initiative, PowerPoint is used in strategy sessions, to present proposals and put forth plans. Later, it's used for updates and progress reports. In the final stages, it's used to report back and to present findings and conclusions.

In today's industrial landscape, the pursuit of sustainable energy optimization and decarbonization has become paramount. Manufacturing corporations across the U.S. are facing the urgent need to align with decarbonization goals while enhancing efficiency and productivity. Unfortunately, the lack of comprehensive energy data poses a significant challenge for manufacturing managers striving to meet their targets.
