Welcome to Teach with Tech!

I hope that you have had the chance to listen to the first episode of "Teach wth Tech," the podcast from the Instructional Consulting office in the Indiana University School of Education. If you haven't, please do so! It's free and doesn't even require an iPod--you can listen to it on anything that plays mp3 files, such as your computer.

I'm Chris Essex, your host for the show, though I plan to drag others into the "spot light, " too!

You can listen to the podcast by downloading it from:

The first show's topics are:
1. What is a podcast?
2. A few good educational podcasts
3. Tech tip
4. What is Macromedia Breeze

The immediate audience of the show is Indiana University School of Education faculty and Associate Instructors, but we welcome all interested listeners.

Nice job! This blog together with the podcasts will definitely allow listeners a convenient area to comment and get to the links you mention.

The easy part is over. I guess the hard part is building a base of listeners. :)

Great job on this guys.

Comments on OnCourseCL: I don't want to bad mouth it either, but it's really hard not to. However, I'll say that I havent' used it since the first week of classes this fall. At that time the discussion forum had no way to indicate what had been read and what hadn't (across sessions) and the survey function was terribly unreliable. These were the issues that drove me from the application.

I set up Moodle (another LMS) on my own account and have really loved the built-in functionality and flexibility of the application.

I have seen some notices from UITS that indicate they are working on some of the issues that I mentioned in oncourseCL (Sakai). I hope that they address these issues and maybe I'll give it a try next semester.

Dan,

You'll be pleased to know that there is a new Message Center in Oncourse CL...and it does track unread messages! It is not turned on by default though...You'll need to go into Site Info and add it. I like it a lot better than the old Discussion Forum (which is still there, and will need to be turned off). It's still not perfect, though--there is no search feature or flat view. But it is a major step forward.

The survey feature has also been improved. I did a couple of quizzes using it last semester.

I've heard good things about Moodle, too.

Thanks for posting!

2020.05.29酒店小姐的基本介紹跟工作內容酒店經紀梁曉尊教你保護自己比賺錢還重要
我在酒店上班的日子酒店上班安全最重要
酒店經紀梁小尊又要開講啦!許多來找我梁曉尊面試應徵工作的求職者,在詢問不敢來酒店上班-酒店打工的原因工作相關資訊時,常遺漏了最重要的事情,就是在酒店上班有那些是必須要注意的地方。相信有許多人在網路或報紙上求職時酒店上班-酒店兼職-兼差如何達成人生的第一桶金,常看到很多廣告內容都強調薪水有多少,卻忘了告訴想到酒店工作的各位,酒店這個環境有那些是要注意的,這裡我酒店經紀梁曉尊就提供一些相關安全資訊給大家。
酒店經紀教妳選擇酒店兼差不是一個複雜的工作環境?酒店工作內容與環境
就梁小尊長期觀察酒店這個環境,只要酒店內部裝潢明亮看起來乾淨整潔,這樣的酒店工作內容幾乎都是十分單純,穿著小禮服或是便服的方式坐檯,工作內容都是陪客人喝酒、唱歌、聊天以及做些桌面服務(整理桌面,保持清潔)這一方面的基本互動。很多玩的比較瘋的酒店內部裝潢普遍昏暗、陳舊及髒亂且常會飄有異味。如果您希望的工作內容相較單純些的話,可依照上述的方式做一個初步判斷。
酒店經紀梁曉尊教妳出場如何自保酒店小姐酒店上班到底都在做什麼?
在我們這裡工作的公關面對出場問題有絕對選擇權。但單純出場陪客人去續攤或是約個小會是在所難免的,畢竟在酒店上班是要營造出與客人有如戀愛的感覺。當然公關都要先觀察客人在包廂與自已的互動,以及觀察客人酒後的行為,做為是否要跟客人出場的判斷。當然客人在詢問公關要不要出場的時候,公關必須詢問客人出場要去的地點,以及有無其他同行友人,最後要再與幹部回報與確認,如此才能大幅降低出場的危險。但難免有些客人說要出場的地點跟實際去的地點不同。例如:客人說要去吃消夜結果車子開到汽車旅館或是住家(私人場所),如果遇到這種狀況,在客人把車停靠在汽車旅館入口的時候,請直接當櫃檯小姐的面前先行下車,並直接回報店家行政與幹部,同時店家行政也會立即連絡酒店經紀人回報狀況,其餘的事情都交由公司處理即可。
