I had the opportunity this week to participate in an “IST Alumni Q&A” with Dr. Curtis J. Bonk from Indiana University, my Ph.D. alma mater. I enjoyed meeting two current graduate students who are interested in data analysis software and the analysis of online conversations. The discussion took place in Zoom and will be made available for students to watch as they are able.

It was a good chance to reflect on how my education in instructional systems and instructional design has impacted the work I do now in at the intersection of qualitative research and new technologies. Many thanks to Dr. Bonk for the invitation!
