I used to teach at a majority-minority school where, like this author, I was the only white person in the room (or one of the few). It makes me incredibly sad to think about how many of the white teachers at this school would discuss how the student's "different" behavior was something to be inherently corrected- what I now know is, something they saw as too non-white to be okay.

I'm not sure a lot of schools are ready to recognize the ways in which white supremacy are built in their institution. I think this is an important framing - instead of touting diversity, how can we dismantle the white supremacy inherent in our systems and institutions?

I'm experiencing the anxiety and stress reading this. The amount of vulnerability and pressure this open pedagogy required is admirable. I'm starting to wonder how it fit with the standards, curriculum, and alignment. It seems it was really well done, but sort of a stand alone to the rest of the curriculum... perhaps not...

Strong history of injustice here. Silence is injustice along with dishonesty and bribes. I've been listening to the In The Dark podcast Season 2 about Curtis Flowers, an inmate on death row accused of capital murder without clear evidence. He's been in for 20+ years for a crime there is not much evidence to connect him to. https://www.apmreports.org/in-the-dark/season-two

Hear, hear! I'm alone at my institution! But, with pedago.me, I'm less alone and empowered!

I'm so happy that I was invited to pedagome! I'm literally all alone in my pursuit of faculty development, and pedagome has quickly become my favorite part of teaching and learning!

love that there is a choice to switch back and forth, I'd be worried I made the wrong decision if I were locked in!

Important point here that these live streamed events don't just benefit the people at home who were unable to attend the conference, but also help boost conference participation and visibility online.

The graduate student stage in my journey was incredibly defining, and many of the concepts and themes I was exposed to there are still very present in my day to day work.

Thinking about working within the system to make change. Perhaps the two philosophies can co-exist. Learning outcomes with their linear path learning could be complimented by a student-decided outcome. The student could look at the syllabus for what faculty hope they will learn in the course, but then choose a final outcome or goal they personally have for taking the course. Then they could also propose how they are going to demonstrate their learning.

The chat rooms are always so interesting. This space can really allow someone like this student to be a bit bolder.

I've never attended a conference virtually before, but I can see how motivation is essential. In fact, it requires a plan for setting up the right space, computer connectivity, limiting distractions and joining with the intent to learn.

This is a great distinction to make. I wish I would have been introduced to the digital realm with some understanding of what commentary is appropriate in different contexts.

I'm sure this can really stretch some of the participants. Various comfort levels with putting themselves out there.

There are murmurings of letting the instructional designers from Pedago.me participate in a #digPINS session.

Yes! This a brilliant way to build faculty's digital literacy. Provide and model the experience in order to build confidence.

I've never heard it put so plainly. Perhaps any time one challenges the status quo it is political. This also helps explain why making change can be so hard. It could be a really uncomfortable position especially when you factor in the different ages of faculty development that an educator might be in at the time of critical reflection and asking for change.

This is an important point: mentors & collaborators outside of a program's hierarchical relationship. I am much more likely to be authentic about my personal/professional growth when there is no hidden agenda or expectations.

I love how the ages of teaching are broken down here. There is almost an unfair expectation for all educators to be fully evolved right out of the gate, but as with all things expertise takes time. Being able to somewhat gauge where an educator is on their journey is a nice indicator to have, especially as an instructional designer who works hard to meet faculty where they are in their journey and not overwhelm them.

Looking forward to this connected and collaborative annotation jam. Feel free to jump in anytime, but be sure to join January 31 from 6-8pm to connect with the live Denver audience.

A big thank you to Maha and Autumm for creating and sharing these ideas; ones we will all collectively benefit from.

Is this true? I've witnessed quite the opposite as far as perceptions go.

Another version of the most ambiguous element of our modern edtech lexicon. Fluency, literacy, what do we want to call it and how is it defined? Not to get morbid, but people dying is likely our hope towards this concept stabilizing (surely just in time for something equally confusing to crop up).

I wonder how a trend towards OER initiatives will change the landscape of for-profit edtech solutions and how they already have

I'm really feeling connected to this statement and consider an important part of my role as an [instructional designer] is to empower student voice and involvement in the decisions being made, while also balancing instructor support.

The Pedago.me annotation jam was so much fun!

Least favorite part! Technical support.

Honestly, this list doesn't get me particularly excited though.

I find this very interesting. We are coming to this line of work from a variety of backgrounds. Perhaps it's a sign of an emerging professional. There was no such thing as an instructional design degree when I got my undergrad.

But is the doctoral degree in instructional design?

This is where I am currently spending most of my time in my work. It can be quite the challenge to teach online pedagogy when faculty is focused on research or face-to-face course load.

I'm a bit surprised by this. Adobe's programs are really complex and maybe too finicky for most graphic needs?

You the man Jeremy! :)

One of the things sadly missing from this list is that I'd love to see "Recommendations from Instructional Designers" Where is it?!?

Anyways, I'd say I'd love to see more folks being open practitioners of their work where they can. Publish openly, foster relationships openly, and learn in the open. That may be a way for us to not have a "What do ID's do now 2020 edition?" I love learning from people who share their thoughts and experiences, good or bad. Just so much to learn through such connections.

I've been doing a bit of coding here and there, and I'd like to learn more for sure!

why we need to be curious, life-long learners!

great resources

Wow! Would love to know where they have a shop this big and hear how that operates and see what they produce! I would think that would be a fun environment to work in, with high quality design and dev in courses.

Woah really, this surprised me....

Sounds appropriate. Love-hate relationships and all.

Yo Roman, you have a 12 hour day. When do you see your family and such?!?

I expect an ID to be better at managing their own priorities and time. :P

I feel so young now. O.o

That's ok. Just means there's tons to still learn. :)

Introduce yourself (if desired): 30 Second Flipgrid Intros

This represents a major issue to me. The tool potential is directly correlated to funding. The UCF's can build RealizeIt into their long-term vision while others struggle to scrape together approval for a few free Wordpress sites.

I feel this stems from instructors never having been students in the online space. Often they don't have a basis to develop online learning experiences because they only know face-to-face learning. Consequently, getting more instructors engaged in online communities as learners themselves would be a great introduction for online learning as a means to prepare them to facilitate their own online courses.

Looking at you fun places I've spent learning: #clmooc #netnarr and such.

Second favorite part. O.o

Favorite part! :)

Yas! Instructional and learning experience designers unite via Pedago.me! We are most active in our slack channel where we HOMAGO (hang out, mess around, and geek out). All are welcome.

If you are here for the Pedago.me annotation jam, welcome! Please participate in the anonymous poll, so we can get a feel for the roles and organizations being represented tonight.

Here's some music to help you find your reading/annotating flow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Cs0qyG78qY

I've been devouring their books as we prepare faculty to begin teaching online

No Learning Experience Design (LXD) title anywhere?

I often feel like there is not enough time to do all the things required of my job.

Maybe we need a Public Service Announcement about our work :) http://www.storyboardthat.com/articles/e/public-service-announcements

Have you been able to play a pivotal role at your institution? If not, what pirvotal changes would you like to make?

Which persona do you identify with the most? If any?

For those interested in digging deeper after tonights #Pedagome chat, let's dissect Neil Postman's, 5 Things We Need to Know About Technological Change. Should be a fun "then and now" perspective.

Let's get this #pedagome flash mob annotation party started as we annotate in the margins across multiple settings (hypothesis, twitter, slack & underwater). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgDztBmfwzs
