Have your students "pitch" to a video package during your morning announcements. This gives your student broadcast team valuable real-world experience while also providing your campus with an engaging way to learn about holidays. It’s a win-win! #broadcastmadeeasy #elementaryeducation #holidayvideos #morningannouncements #broadcastadvisors #schoollibrarians #instructionaltechnologists #elementaryprincipals #charterschools #education

City Fm Media Academy (CMA) called and I answered! Here's a snippet from one of my sessions with the amazing course participants. I love the energy in this class. They were receptive to learning and were inquisitive as well. ❤ #dictioncoach #mediatrainer #publicspeakingcoach

Snack and Learn is back! After taking a hiatus I am now rolling back the short video tutorials. What topics would you like me to cover? Here's a sample video for "how to calculate the broadcast address in a classless CIDR network" as suggested by a few of my students. https://lnkd.in/gxXCmssS #learning #professionaldevelopment

Based on ethnographic fieldwork, exhaustive observation, and case study analysis of the recommender system in German public broadcasting, this book asks how algorithms can have a democratic component.

Avoid the trap of broadcasting your challenges to everyone. Instead, harness the power of selective disclosure. Engage with those who can offer meaningful support and guidance. Broadcasting your struggles to the wrong audience May only attract sarcasm and pity, further perpetuating feelings of defeat. And do not allow life's challenges to define who you are. 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒚 𝒁𝒊𝒈𝒈𝒚

🌿When preforming a live broadcast, 1) Make sure your sound system is clear and, at a volume one's audience can hear each other. 2) Apologies to your audience when you are late. 3) One's title is not nearly as important as the individual's name and, the way they convey themselves including, the subject/s matter/s. 4) The host nor, the co-host should ever lie to their audience, for any reason.

Without entertaining, it's impossible to attract attention. But if you optimise every form of media (including news and education) for entertainment here's what you get: Surface level thinking, shallow storytelling and people talking past each other. The result: The corrosion of the mind, the rise of false prophets and the destruction of public discourse. We all created this...and we can do much better.
