500 of My Interviews and Recordings Now Posted on YouTube and SoundCloud | Future of Education | Classroom 2.0 | Ed Tech Live

This summer I enlisted the help of my daughter to finally get all of my previous interview series recordings uploaded and easy to access. Most are hour-long recordings, which has made me realize how much our attention spans have been reduced over the past few years as the volume of online content has exploded.

I've held five interview series:

• The Future of Education (www.futureofeducation.com), 2009 - 2015, 308 interviews;

• Classroom 2.0 (www.classroom20.com), 2009 - 2012, 71 interviews / sessions;
• Conversations.net, 2009 - 2010, 17 interviews;

• The Week in Ed Tech / Hack Education Weekly with Audrey Watters, 2011 - 2013, 55 shows;

• EdTechLive (often about Open Source Software in Education) 2006 - 2014, 57 interviews.

All of the recordings are listed by series HERE, and in a complete alphabetical list HERE.

All the recordings have YouTube and SoundCloud links, and most have links to the original posts about them (because of service closures, some of those links no longer work). I'm working with iTunes to get the full series up there. The quality of many of the recordings is not what I'd wish--sometimes because my tech at the time just wasn't great, but sometimes because they were recordings of live online sessions held in early platforms where the audio options were limited.

The memories and learning associated with these interviews and recordings are phenomenal for me. Thanks to all who participated. (There's more to come as I get ready to start my new "How to Win at the Game of School" project--student, teacher, and parent interviews; webinars; an online course; and an online community.)

"See you online!"

Webinar - "Sexual Harassment of Library Staff" on September 17th

"SEXUAL HARASSMENT OF LIBRARY STAFF: RESPONDING TO INCIDENTS BY PATRONS OR OTHERS." A 60-minute webinar, recorded in a special Library 2.0 series with Dr. Steve Albrecht, held live on Tuesday, September 17th, 2019, at 4:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.

Register to attend live or to have access to the recordings by clicking on the "Join WEBINAR" on THIS PAGE.
You will need to be logged into Library 2.0--if you are not yet a member, you can join for free here.

OVERVIEW: The following questions come up in libraries around the country: “Why didn’t you tell your boss you were being sexually or racially harassed by a patron? Do your co-workers know about this? Why did you wait so long to report this? Can we ban a patron for this type of repeated behavior?”

The short answers are: “I was afraid or embarrassed”; “Yes, and they have their own stories to tell about being harassed”; “I didn’t want to cause problems; I just wanted it to stop”; and “Yes!”

Library staff members have the right to work in a workplace environment where the directors, managers, and supervisors: pay attention to harassment situations; listen to employee concerns; intervene and investigate as necessary; and use various HR or Code of Conduct-related tools, based on the severity of the incidents, to stop the problem.

Library leaders must create the kind of culture where employees aren’t afraid of or are unsure of how to report patron harassment; to help to manage staff fears on this issue; and be ready to take the right steps on behalf of their staffs. Staff members must have the courage to know how and when to tell their bosses (or HR, or their city/county/agency attorneys, among others) if they are being harassed by other patrons. In other words, we can’t fix what we don’t know about.

This 60-minute webinar-based training program is suitable for all library directors, managers, supervisors, and (full and part-time) employees.

KEY LEARNING POINTS DURING THE WEBINAR:

• Pre-Quiz
• The Big Picture: Boundaries, Behaviors, Support, and Consequences
• The New Workplace: Expanding the Concept of “Protected Classes”
• Hostile Work Environment Examples
• Multiple Channels of Reporting
• Harassment and Bullying by Patrons: Enough is Enough

"SECURITY FOR RURAL LIBRARIANS: STAYING SAFE AT WORK WHEN HELP IS FAR."

This 60-minute webinar, recorded in a special Library 2.0 series with Dr. Steve Albrecht, held live next Tuesday, August 13th, 2019, at 4:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.

Register to attend live or to have access to the recordings by clicking on the JOIN WEBINAR here. You will need to be logged into Library 2.0--if you are not yet a member, you can join for free here.

OVERVIEW: If you define yourself as a Rural Librarian, see if these scenarios sound familiar:

• A man comes in and asks you for the time. You tell him and he nods and goes to sit at a nearby table, where he just stares at you for the next two hours . . .
• A woman comes in and tells you she is living on the streets. She asks if she can use your restroom. She goes inside and locks the door. An hour later and she’s still in there . . .
• A group of local teenagers come into your library and start messing with your displays, rolling the book carts around, and making noise. You ask them to leave and they refuse . . .
• A man who is angry at the county comes into your library to ask you for legal advice. When you tell him you cannot give him that type of help, he takes a gun out of his backpack and places it on the counter.

If you work in a city or county library in an active neighborhood in a larger community, you would know how to address each of these by getting help from a co-worker, by asking a supervisor to speak to these people, by disengaging and doing your work at another part of the facility, or even by going into a back room and calling the police from a safe place. However, if you work in a rural library location--which can be defined as having a police or sheriff’s response that could be 20 minutes to an hour away, working alone in the building, or working in a one-room facility, with only one way in or out--these options aren’t always available.

This webinar is here to help. MORE INFORMATION + TO SIGN UP HERE.

Announcing the 2019 Global Education Conference | Global Collaboration Week | Partner + Member Support!

1. The 9th Annual Global Education Conference

2. Global Collaboration Week

3. Member and Partner Support!

1. The 9th Annual Global Education Conference (GEC)
November 18 - 20, 2019

The Global Education Conference Network's ninth annual world-wide collaboration on globally-connected education will take place around the clock starting Monday, November 18th, and continuing through Wednesday, November 20th. Mark your calendars now!

This conference is a collaborative, inclusive, world-wide community initiative involving students, educators, and organizations at all levels. Our activities are designed to significantly increase opportunities for connecting classrooms while supporting cultural awareness and recognition of diversity and educational access for all. For more information about the GEC and to access educational resources, click here to visit our online community.

This free event takes place entirely online around the clock from November 18 - 20, 2019. (And please consider supporting this work by making a donation--see below!).

This event is FREE to attend, but does require that you REGISTER!
Please register HERE. 

The GEC features thought leaders from the world of education and beyond, is completely free to attend, and all events take place online in webinar format. We invite you to join the 27,500 GEC community members (from 170+ countries) and actively participate in dozens of sessions focused on international education topics.

The Call for Proposals Is Open!

Proposals can be submitted until November 10, 2019, and we will begin accepting proposals on a rolling basis starting September 2, 2019. We encourage you to submit your proposal as early as possible because as soon as a proposal is accepted, you are given the ability to select from the available presentation times (the time choices become increasingly limited closer to the event).

You may submit more than one proposal. We encourage all to submit by following the detailed directions listed here. If accepted, you can present in your time zone at a time that is convenient to you!

2. Global Collaboration Week

Students, teachers, and organizations will get online to celebrate global collaboration during the week of September 23 - 27, as back-to-school season begins in the northern hemisphere.

During this week, experienced global educators and other professionals will design and host connective projects and events and invite public participation. The primary goals of this week-long event are to demonstrate the power of global connectivity in classrooms, schools, institutions of informal learning and universities around the world, and to introduce others to the tools, resources, projects, and networks that are available to educators today.

This is an opportunity for educators new to globally connected teaching and learning to participate in virtual activities designed by more experienced teachers. It's also a great way for educators running ongoing global projects to find project partners!

For more information and to sign up, go to globalcollaborationweek.org or see this informational flyer.

3. Member and Partner Support

We need your help to make our events possible!

In April of this year we moved to a member + partner support model. After ten years of holding fantastic grass-roots virtual events to help students, teachers, and organizations connect globally, we're asking our members and partners to help us fund the effort.

Please consider supporting us! We know that many of our members who are committed to global education face the same budget constraints that we do, so you do not have to contribute to stay a member of the conference network or attend our free events. However, for those that are in a position to help, we have created a structure for $10, $25, $50, $100, and $250 donations, with some fun ways of recognizing contributions.

Please click HERE to see the member-contribution information page that also allows you to contribute immediately.

We have also set up a structure for very-reasonable non-profit or non-commercial “partner” commitments. If your organization is open to helping in this way, or you represent a commercial organization wanting to help, please email steve@learningrevolution.com.

Our thanks to our premier partners:

Our thanks to our partners:

Here's to a more globally-connected world!
