Digital Jobs To Be Done

thoughts about customers, data, analytics and constructionist learning

Designing active learning sessions

Future Active Learning

I’m trying to document some of my thinking around active constructivist learning for adults.  In my experience everyone appreciates the idea of learning by doing but many find it hard to imagine the range of sessions that can be designed.   Many learning designers fall back on talking and telling, and relegate making and reflection… Read More Designing active learning sessions

Building worlds for digital transformation

digital business transformation

Every organisation is being affected by digitalisation as technology transforms how work gets done, consumer expectations change and new ways to create value are devised. For more than twenty years I have worked with a wide variety of companies from banking to retail and from pharmaceuticals to luxury wines and spirits.  Each has it’s own… Read More Building worlds for digital transformation

A fox seen in a window in sydney

When we construct sessions for learners we should borrow ideas from a wide range of different creative industries. Harnessing the skills, tools and practices from a completely new field gives a group new perspectives and helps them make new connections between ideas.   In this post I want to describe the process I have used… Read More Think, make and reflect like a board game designer

There are many… Read More Design for your heroes

Learning through making has been a powerful force in my life

Billboard message about making

I am fascinated by learning, by how we learn, by what might be going on inside my head and inside my mind, and how experimenting and making things might be at the root of all of these.  I would call myself a constructivist educator. What is constructivism? This is a theory of learning that comes… Read More Learning through making has been a powerful force in my life

One small change can build a new world

Weird clock

Here is a way to generate a new world that will get you started with world building: imagine that we start with a world just like our own and make a small change.   It can be anything from a technological invention to a trend that sweeps across the globe.  Write it down and then… Read More One small change can build a new world

Data voids and #thetalentedgardener

#thetalentedgardener

A gardener is a world builder in the real world; a maker of fruit, flowers, vegetables, landscapes and views, who works within the rules of climate, weather, insects, biology and time. Gardeners experiment and learn; constructing and refining models of what works and what does not but aware of the randomness of outcomes and the… Read More Data voids and #thetalentedgardener
