Arsenal Consulting in Atlanta is looking to expand and hire subcontractors to travel to more clients and engage with them on projects which require Quality Control Audits.  Arsenal's CEO told me what he wanted and provided some examples of what he was looking for.  I gathered his input and did some research on my own to put together a shooting script 

After two rounds of edits with the CEO, he was pleased with the results. Arsenal will use this script when they are ready to engage with a production team to film/edit.  Running time is estimated to be 12 minutes long.

With the explosion of AI technology into all fields, ATD Dallas created a study group to look at Artificial Intelligence, specifically how this ever-evolving technology will impact the field of Learning and Development and how practitioners can get ahead of it.  The group also decided to explore some of the many services that are currently available to users.

I volunteered to present Copy.ai at our next meeting and how it would be helpful in the realm of Learning and Development.  

Students frequently have difficulty with the concepts of Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition. Learners often confuse the processes as each one takes so long to occur in real time.  Ice wedging in particular was difficult to understand for learners living in warmer climates.  Sure, they understood that their soda can would freeze and expand if they tried to quickly chill their drink in the freezer and forgot about it.  But how to make the connection to rocks?

This is a very simple presentation used with 7th and 8th grade Science students to help them practice using the Periodic Table of Elements (PTE).  Each learner was provided with their own paper copy of the PTE at the beginning of the Unit.   Directions were given earlier to color-code their PTE based upon the types of element classifications.  Students did not need to have their chart color-coded for this exercise - they simply had to have an understanding of how the Periodic Table of Elements worked and used clues in this exercise to find each element.

Though this presentation is very simple, I found this exercise to be useful to facilitate the learning of the concepts and help uncover where there might be misconceptions.  I have added multiple slides to this in the past to help review what they know, but I have always tried to keep presentation no longer than 5-10 minutes.

This Skill Game is useful for both in person and online learning.

A straight-ahead presentation about the how plate boundaries interact on Earth to create different features and events.  This PowerPoint was improved when Covid arrived to help learners better understand the concepts and expanded upon to include maps.

Overall, the lesson works well.  If I had to, I would involve different technology to enable students to better illustrate their answers in the document.
