  • Downes Theory of Education

    Downes Theory of Education

    I’ve always found Stephen Downes weekly summary of all things learning tech related a source for all sorts of goodies. Here’s one of his statements that I thought deserved an visualisation.

  • Oh to be a C.I.C.

    Oh to be a C.I.C.

    Oh, to be a C.I.C… When we formed wapisasa, we wanted to pin the social aspects to our foreheads so that we would never lose sight of the fact that the young people come first. A Community Interest Company therefore makes sense – an efficient business with a charity heart. However C.I.C.s aren’t necessarily trusted…

  • Reinventing yourself…

    Reinventing yourself…

    A thought captured from the Connected Courses project (connectedcourses.net) following a comment from Meredith Broussard – which struck a chord with me…

  • Why tweet childrens learning

    Why tweet childrens learning

    This visual thought was originally a hand drawing by @timbotaylor – but I really liked the simplicity of it, and so I had a go at remixing it. There are definitely parallels with all strands of education…

  • What is a teachers product?

    What is a teachers product?

    This image comes from Jonathan Worth’s most excellent session at the Big Think event, Dec 14, where he talked about what the product of a teacher was. Indeed, I was also inspired by a sketch done by @aholsborough, and decided to remix it…

    Its more than just a report

  • What teaching is not

    What teaching is not

    This was a thought I came across whilst listening to Graham Brown-Martin’s Learning {re}visited interview with Sir Ken Robinson – who seems to talk a lot of sense.

  • Tax needn’t be taxing

    Tax needn’t be taxing

    Indeed. Unfortunately its all about whether or not you know what you’re doing. Yeuch.

  • Technology is the amplifier of our intellect

    Technology is the amplifier of our intellect

    This Steve Jobs quote was drawn live during a session with John D Couch, VP of Apple Education at the BETT show in London.

  • Ubiquitous broadband for every learner

    Ubiquitous broadband for every learner

    his image was produced for Education Technology Action Group ETAG report (etag.report) and shared at the BETT show in London. It comes following a discussion at a meeting of the ETAG group in January 2015.
