		<title>It all depends how you look and read things.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a great piece of video that truly does make you think about not only what we see and think about but how we contextualize things.
Content is important BUT context is also very important.
Do you really listen?
When you are listening do you get the point?
Or do you hear what you want to hear?
There are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Teaching Point.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a little observation.
Today a student asked me about what was required of a practicum exercise.
We are going to be reporting on the 2nd Global Media Ethics Roundtable using social media tools.
The students question was can I post a video and be done?
I suppose but what a waste of time and possibility.
It seems it was [...]]]></description>

		<title>You know you are doing something right.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How often do you look in the mirror after you have done a days work and ask, &#8220;is it getting through?&#8221;
I suspect all too often we miss the signs that what we are doing is having an impact.
Today I was working with a class on an end of term project and gave the all clear [...]]]></description>

		<title>Content is king!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night on Nightline I had a great conversation about content syndication!
I am not talking RSS but how you can get content that is market ready into the market!
Imagine that academic paper that can be reformatted and become a valuable business piece.
How does this effect you? Are you a person who writes? Do you have [...]]]></description>

		<title>A morning with Darren Shan.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, I would be telling  fib if I said I tucked into Darren Shan books on a regular basis.
I took my son to listen to Darren Shan at the Emirates Airlines International Literature Festival in Dubai and realized I have missed something grand!
Thanks to the power of QIK.com and my iPhone I have some bad [...]]]></description>

		<title>What do students really want.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You may be asking why have my last couple of posts been very pointedly about education?
The obvious answer is that I spend a portion of my day in the classroom, at the university level, and deal 1st hand with the education realities of the day.
I am also part of a group of educators that is [...]]]></description>

		<title>In search of the next best thing!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wonder if at times the institutions of education are doing us a dis-service?
Think about it for a minute, we want people to take risks, create the next best thing, work as teams and WOW the population.
And we learn this where? School.
Sure we have IB schools that claim to do this BUT every IB school [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pick up the phone!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think, just maybe, with all our text, tweets, SMS, MMS, facebook, Qik, blogs&#8230; we have forgotten how nice it is to just pick up a phone and tell someone something, anything!
I think, just maybe, we are hiding behind technology when it comes to communication today!
The old voice on the phone can be fast, effective, [...]]]></description>

		<title>death by email</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love the way Hugh MacLeod gets right to the point!
Technology is great,don&#8217;t get me wrong, BUT we are failing in a epic way to manage the use of it in a manner that is healthy!
And the classic example of our failure to manage and live with technology is email!
We have lost control of out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bring on the mobile media!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been doing some experimentation with mobile media and breaking my own rules!
The main rule I live by with mobile media is keep it short!
I have been recording my classes at the university and formatting them for an iPhone! The lectures are about 60 minutes and they actually seem to have a small audience.
If [...]]]></description>
