crabs on rocks with the ocean in the backgroundCrabs on rocks – not under them 🙂  I had a new telephoto lens and a relaxing afternoon on this day at Las Caletas, Puerto Vallarta.

I’ve still got my weeks ending on Friday in the title but I think I’ll keep that for consistency. I only just realized that it’s Thursday afternoon (at 4:15) and time to write a reflection. It didn’t feel like the end of the week yet.

I spent most of this week composing emails and connecting with colleagues about what open and access means to them with regard to North Island College. Such big, broad terms and I was pleased to learn that this is something people want to talk about. I had a few interviews this week and have a couple more scheduled for next week. I still have people to contact and a few I hope to hear back from. I’m recording with captions so I will have the transcripts to review.

I had a really good chat with Sue Doner at Camosun this week too.  She is a long time advocate of accessible design and was able to share her perspective, experience, and some resources with me.  We are going to come up with a project we can collaborate on.

I will also be working on a Craft Services course for the TV and Film Crew micro credentials that are being offered.

Plan for next week is to source some images for the Craft Services course and load some content if it’s ready. I’ll be talking to more college colleagues and setting up more interviews. I’m already seeing a common ‘pain point’ to access surfacing.  Like Liesel in other areas, I feel like I may be turning over a few rocks…
