Whisper into the future

Wendy Taleo on February 15, 2021

In this week in the Net Mirror (#NetNarr) Professor Levine is encouraging the use of audio to capture our thoughts. Here I'm playing with audio and using the screen capture feature on Android (Samsung 10) that allows for multiple things: capturing my voice, capturing system sounds, screen annotation, video thumbnail. This would be a very cool way to tell a story using a multimodal approach.This is a cross posting for #WalkMyWorld where I came across the "I Miss My Bar" […]

What I learnt from The Boss (and the band)

Wendy Taleo on February 1, 2021

In Week 1 (and a bit) of Network Narratives there have been two questions for me:1. How can education be subverted?2. What do I think about this course theme: Post Pandemic University (PPU)These are extracted from the facilitators introduction and not asked directly. With another open participant, Terry Elliott (@telliowkuwp), we have been discussing these questions via the margins using hypothes.is. Terry suggested that the answer to question one might be GameStop. I'll leave that right there!Terry suggested The Boss, […]

Does the class exist?

Wendy Taleo on January 28, 2021

The class exists /In our imagination / a gathering across spaces / creating lines of flight / as birds spread their wings / grazing wind drifts. The class is existential / yet moving and dynamic / coating our cortex lightly / as much as our neurons can handle.by Wendy Taleo, 2021Respond or join in the conversation in the margins

Post-what?

Wendy Taleo on January 27, 2021

NetNarr kicks off again and Alan Levine writes this introduction and Mia Zamora adds her launch thoughts.The theme this year is Imagining a Post Pandemic University. Working with students who are not-post but in-pandemic, it will be interesting what will be written in this environment. Mia talks about envisaging a 'way out' and all the paths that might move forward in the education sector. Play and fun is a prime focus and discovery with opportunities to express ourselves in different media.I'm […]

The sound of letters

Wendy Taleo on February 21, 2020

What does your name sound like using code-x.live. This is another #SelfieUnSelfie project. Providing the letters of my name but hearing like never before. This echos the experience of children experimenting with language and sounds. Is this poetry?

The Net Mirror

Wendy Taleo on February 17, 2020February 17, 2020

'When we look closely at our screens, what do we see, both in ourselves and in our society? And are the screens and networks behind it seeing us back? What do our reflections behold, and what stories still need to be told?' from http://netmirror.arganee.world/In this empty classroomI poseI want a selfie -but notso I turn the cameratowards its ownblack mirror.In this empty classroomthe whiteboardis whitethe tablesare clearand the screen,(the promise of the screen)is partially rolled down.In this empty classroomthe chairs waitpoised for some instruction -trees shift outsidea view screenedfrom […]

The checklist is never complete

Wendy Taleo on May 2, 2018May 2, 2018

What a great way to finish up 2018 #NetNarr with a 'green-screen-faking-it' video from Mia Zamora and Alan Levine. I just want them to shake hands so I know it's real! Two wonderful academics that have guided us through this maze we call Network Narratives. I'm wrapping up another #NetNarr event. The Final Final checklist suggested a few ways to curate what has been happening and I think this would be valuable for me now and as a way of […]

Next Gen LMS

Wendy Taleo on March 12, 2018March 12, 2018

Photo by NASA on UnsplashReading the ever-exciting New Media Consortium 2017 report, it lists Next Generation Digital Learning Environments (NGDLE) on the 2-3 year timeframe for adoption. I'm thinking about Network Narratives in this framework and realise that what we have in the various resources of this course, makes up a learning 'portal' (pg 45). Whether this provides a deeper learning experience than signing up for a Learning Management System (LMS) experience is something that I am pondering.A portalthat allows a different viewfrom sea to sky, […]

Game it – Week 8.0

Wendy Taleo on March 7, 2018March 7, 2018

In this segment of Netnarr we are being asked to think about games. Here is a short reflection on two of my fave games at the moment.Mahjong - the board gameThis is nothing like the 'match the pair' version that is popular on computers. The goal of the game is to be able to make a certain pattern of the tiles (like cards) in a throw out/pick up routine. I like the routine and process of this game which starts […]
