Hey all!
Welcome to my blog! :-) A professional and personal place to share and empty the contents of my head. Sometimes it's cringe and uncomfortable, but it's me sharing my journey. :-P
Because my full-time role is a learning technologist, you would think it's given that I have a blog and many other technologies to use and promote for myself. But I am different, I don't and won't write in a egotistic way and be consumed by commercialism like other educators. My posts are all positive, not negative. I am simply expressing and sharing my thoughts and journey with you (and hoping I am not alone in this lovely challenging career), and my reflective self. I aim to express. Not to impress. A phrase I like to use. ;-)
I originally started up my first blog around March 2012 but deleted it as I weren't sure what to write and share. So a year or so later, here is my blog - intended to be a human collection of my own words and videos, talking about my magical career in Lifelong Learning and Teaching. I probably won't give away every unique secret about me here, that would be over a cup of tea and biscuits!
Chat
I use Twitter as my Personal Learning Network to keep up to date with new and upcoming learning, teaching and technology innovations. I also use it to express thoughts that come to me, all of which are positive and meaningful.
Profile
For this I use LinkedIn to present a professional overview of my education and work experience. Plus, it saves writing and linking up to multiple profiles that say the same thing.
Publications
A list of publications I have written or significantly contributed towards.
Videos
I record short video entries and will post them on my blog. The videos will be within the same theme of my blog, about me, learning and teaching.
I hope you will get something from my blog, even if it is a smile.
Enjoy, Dan Scott.
P.S, I probably will edit my posts by adding and correcting things. I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
