Hack Education
Teaching Machines
- I didn’t write anything on the Teaching Machines’ blog this week, I now realize. Ooops. I am still going through the photos and notes I took at ETS. I’m also reading a bunch of books and articles about programmed instruction and trying to figure out how to turn academic research from the 1960s into a page-turning narrative
Other Writing
- HEWN, No. 294 via substack.com
- I sent a newsletter to my Patreon supporters
- The Business of Ed-Tech: November 2018 Funding Data on funding.hackeducation.com
- The Break on audreywatters.com
Working
- I did some of the usual “end-of-the-month” tasks like backing up my files, deleting old Tweets, and updating my CV
- I recorded some audio with Nathan Maton about technology and ethics
- As “The Break” notes above, I have started a break away from social media until the book is written. I will probably write a bit on the blog this week about how I’m doing this and how it’s going. I’m only one day in, after all.
Reading and Listening
- I finished reading Programed Instruction and I am re-reading The Cult of Information
- I finished listening to I Contain Multitudes and I am listening to Fear Itself
