My Peripheral Vision

I was awarded the daunting task of teaching four chapters from our course’s reading The Peripheral by William Gibson. Randomly I was selected to teach chapters 49, 60, 72, and 114. All of the chapters were relatively short and it was an even more arduous task to create an activity …

How Did We Get Here??

How in the world did we get to where we are now?!

Going into the Animated GIF module I had no idea what to expect. What I think threw me off was using slack. I don’t say that with any ill intent or negative thought association. Also, the snow days …

“I Swear I’m Born Abnormally Absurd”

This week was a very interesting week for me in ds106. All of my other classes were starting to come to an end so that gave me so much less time to do my work for ds106. I had a lot of fun doing my work this week its just …
