The creation process and innovation seemed interesting but the description of his day to day activities seems really tedious. He did mention how they would sometimes create flash animation and other media. I wonder how they make that decision to make them and what does it cost.

I liked how these two video go together but I guess that I would ask him the same question as before.

Great interview! I guess I would want to know how he balances his job, calling, and family.
Rob,
Wow! Sounds like you landed a whale :) Sounds like he has developed amazing personal skills. Why did he recommend those organizations? Are they journals?

What are the alternative technologies that they are considering? Are they going to develop a new program or use one that has already been developed. I have noticed that some departments are moving to BrainHoney. "stop covering the content and start uncovering the content." We need to start moving away from grades and more toward understanding. The last part of the interview I think validates the use of PLEs.
Tiffany and Kevin,
What a story! Literacy for change--what do people need to know to make change in their lives. There was a great metaphor of hands, head, heart, feet. He started about drop out rates. What are the classes like? What are the teaching strategies that they use in their classes? It almost seemed like the classes were similar to therapy. Interesting concept of keeping the manual in a wiki format. That is just a heart breaking story but it ended with some hope.

What are companies doing with the information? How much information they get? What is oniture and what data does it give you?
David
They talk about solving problems. What are their common problems? What are they writing?
She talked about making the client happy. Who are the clients?
Chrisjian,
Very well done! Who are the people on his team. He mentioned that psychology was important. Do they have psychologists on their team?
Alberto,
How do they decide if they want an animation? What does that cost? Is it common for them to have been teachers prior?

Answering the questions you asked for me (Alberto):
ReplyDeleteHow do they decide if they want animation? Usually the instructor knows beforehand if they need or want an animation. If not, it is up to the consultant or designer to tell and convince the teacher that is the best way to go.
How much does it cost? Nothing. It is a free service to faculty.
Is it common for them to have been teachers prior? For some, not all. My guess is about 50-60%.
Regarding your questions: His team that I videoed consisted of representatives from a variety of church departments, including missionary, web development, curriculum, and marketing. (I'm not certain about the department names, just the type of people who were represented.)
ReplyDeleteAnother group we met with had representatives from the production team.
I think the psychology he was referring to was the learning psychology he learned from the IP&T program.
