Today I detoured past Officeworks and bought some giant pink postit notes. And coloured small postits. (And some other stationery that may work for reading\/note-taking … but more on that in another post).<\/p>\n

So, to workshop the idea that I wanted to play with, I made several large sheets, and stuck ideas all over them. The sheets were labelled:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Investigating a and b (teeny tiny postit in the middle)<\/li>\n
  2. All about a.<\/li>\n
  3. All about b.<\/li>\n
  4. Possible barriers to investigation<\/li>\n
  5. Possible opportunities in investigation<\/li>\n
  6. Possible methodologies<\/li>\n
  7. Where to look (other disciplines\/topics with similar enquiry method\/topics… for lit review)<\/li>\n
  8. Thematic questions<\/li>\n
  9. Possible journal article topics<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    … and then I just went to town \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

    And spent the other half of the day working my way through this 35 000 word article.<\/p>\n

    Half as professional development to help me with my teaching, and partly because it kind of relates to something I am writing. I am finding I am consolidating knowledge, and filling some very odd, obvious gaps in what I know – which is just great. I always enjoy people writing simply about complex tech ideas. I highly recommend it.<\/p>\n

    It was recommended by one of the attendees of the [and then I went off to try to find the conference that matched the hashtag I followed in the middle of marking. BUT … I know it was a WordPress one, but could not find it again … what I DID find, however, was a post from Matt Mullewag<\/a> {Wordpress lead} about the gizmoes he takes when he travels<\/a>.
