T Is For Training

We talked web design, since Paul and Jill just redid their websites and Maurice just launched his own. (colemanassociates.net) Great tips about why have one, what do you want it to do for you, and if you don't have an online presence, have pictures of yourself doing your thing.

We talked about PLA, Specilization v generalization, hair(or the lack thereof) and how to bring non-white people into the library profession.

Pat Wagner, Trainer and Facilitator Extrodinare, joined the show to talk about a career in improving lives and making people braver one place at a time.

Are education and learning the same thing? Siblings? Cousins? Neighbors? Share the same zip code? Should students check boxes or learn how to problem-solve. If they should learn to problem-solve, how do we teach it? How do you convince a student to take a class that will help them 10 years down the road?

Casey Davis of ASU joined us to talk about his book Digital Civics and Citizenship. Fun discussion.

We talked about our host's college journey, which ended after 36 years, and how that impacted training, teaching and learning.

We enjoyed the company of Howard H. Prager, author of Make Someone's Day for a fantastic conversation.

All about copyright, public domain and doing the right thing by doing the hard thing..

We wrap up the end of a fab 2021 with a show dedicated to What did We Learn this year. We named dropped a few excellent guests, told stories and had a good time giving Tom the business.

Join Paul, Jill, Tom, Andrea, Diane, Ruben and Mr. Evaluation Ken for a fun look back and a few stories.

Elaine Biech, Rita Bailey, and first timer Tonya Wilson joined Paul, Jill and Maurice to talk about how to make connections, creating grace, and facilitating understanding around equity, diversion, inclusion and accessibility for individuals, trainers and organizations.
