I went and spoke to some students at my kids’ high school who are in the year book class and are going to do event photography. So I’ve been thinking quite a bit. Turns out there are a lot of things I wanted to talk about. I was pretty excited about doing this and perhaps […]
I did three AI workshops last week. One was focused on AI in a world building class, one for productivity and one was focused on creativity. You can tell I’m doing too much with AI based on my ads. All our AI presentations will start with the same pattern. This is a condensed version because […]
Back in April, I did the first version of this presentation. That’s roughly 4 months ago. It feels like a lot has changed since then. As I revisited the presentation, I changed quite a bit. Some of those changes were due to the technology changing. Some changed based on my experience. I listened to 7 […]
I ran a AI prompting basics workshop this past Friday.1 The slides are here and there are way too many examples. It led me to try lots of things. This is roughly what we did in the workshop.2 The images were generated via Copilot with a 1950s comic book prompt I’ve used pretty consistently. Amy […]

I had the chance to talk to the kind folks from Middlebury about digital fluency Friday. I’ll probably do a better job getting into the depth of things with this as I was moving pretty rapidly for the 20 minute presentation. It’s also super-meta in a way that’s hard to articulate verbally so I’m going […]
*********UPDATE********* The stuff below sort of works, but since there’s only one parent element for all sections it won’t let you click on links later on. That’s no good. It’s also kind of weird to go from interacting with the iframe page to get back into the slideshow navigation (partially because I hid the navigation […]
