Category : Career, drbexl

So, my crazy timetable continues (I don’t want any more projects til next summer!). I’m enjoying everything I’m doing, and have even had to give up some things I love doing… very privileged for this year… who knows what next year will bring however…

Over the past few months, since the last update:

  • Made it to the gym more regularly (particularly Boxercise & Circuit Training, and upped my walking across in London)
  • Resigned as Social Media Strategist for Super Fun Days Out (other projects have taken over, but I will continue to provide occasional blog posts as I undertake SFDOs!)
  • Worked with Matt Buck to create a new logo for Digital Fingerprint (a site into which I am keen to put more time, although regular postings continue)
  • Continued sporadic postings to this blog, and ww2poster.
  • Set up http://bigbible.org.uk, work which continues (with a new site under development)
  • Set up and started developing content for http://wblb.wordpress.com/
  • Set up and created a site for a new module: http://manipulating-media.co.uk, for which I also prepared 2 x 3 hour interactive sessions, although I think this planned chapter may fall through.
  • Written reports for BODGIT and SkillsNet, both projects into which I have put large amounts of work.
  • Written a review of Imperial War Museum exhibitions for “The Poster” Journal (for which I am a Review Editor), and submitted an article for Capture Journal.
  • Submitted my second PGCLTHE assignment, returned with a mark of 70%.
  • Undertaken a review of the iPad.
  • Since August 2010, a 0.4 contract for the year for the Blended Learning Fellowship, including these workshops
  • Attended LICC Social Media Bootcamp, helped organise, market & presented three sessions (including a shared keynote with @maggidawn) for #CNMAC10, plus  a load of promo sessions for @bigbible… and attended #LikeMinds.
  • Not seen enough of my friends though, and trying to remedy that!

  • Undertaking consultancy with 12baskets re: marketing, creating online buzz, and getting more creatives involved (trial, potentially ongoing).
  • Working with Matt Buck on developing a talk around Second World War posters, using his expertise as a cartoonist (potentially in a similar style to the RSA).
  • 22nd: Drop In Day (inaugural event, to encourage experimentation with online tools)
  • Super User at the JISC Innovating Learning (online) conference.
