Sharing ideas about using audio to map student engagement as part of #cesicon in Dublin, Ireland on March 10, 2018.

I've always been interested in slow feeds and in the drip feed of music, ambient recording, and personal audio moments. Since the late 90s, I've shared music, poetry, audible books, and the sound track of my life. I've also taken down things when requested.

Recorded during a training session @LimerickIT

Mark shared this on social channels, and something amazing happened: "A model student his whole life, my son, a freshman, suddenly hates school. He says the teachers are boring and most of the subject matter he will never use in real life. This is heartbreaking. He has three and a half years left, and I don't know what to do."Listen to how people reacted and how Mark disseminates their reactions into some powerful, What-You-Can-Do-Tomorrow strategies to make school an engaging, fun place for all

Remembering that night in 1985 Frankfurt, crabbing down an icy runway.

The Mississippi State legislature wants to mandate nightly homework, including spelling, across the state. Mark Barnes explains why any homework mandate undermines teachers, learners, and parents.

In the future, everything will be one, very large thing. This is the time when people of this planet linked themselves together on a planetary scale. There are 15 billion devices wired up to one giant circuit that already exceeds our brains in complexity, and it's doubling every few years. Its total storage is about 600 exabytes. Each time we click a link we train the global mind. Look at a satellite photograph of the earth at night. This embryonic very large thing has been running continuously for
