Some Rules For The Modern Scientist

If you don't make your papers publicly available on your webpage, you don't want people to read them. Making them available means providing a link to a downloadable version in pdf format, preferably hosted on your own web site. You cannot blame anyone for not reading and citing your work if it cannot very easily be found online without a paywall. All respectable academic publishers allow self-archiving of publications these days; if they don't allow it, they are not respectable.

If you don't have a Google Scholar profile, you don't want to be hired. Like it or not, citation counts and h-index are among the least bad metrics for evaluating researchers. And like it or not, metrics are necessary because people on hiring committees do not really have the time to read your papers on detail, nor do they typically have the necessary context to understand their significance.

If you never try to describe your research in more popular terms than an academic paper, you don't want anyone outside your field to know about what you are doing. All academic fields are full of jargon which acts as an effective deterrent to non-specialists understanding your work. Every so often, try to give a public lecture, write a blog post or record a video that explains your work so that ordinary people would understand it. Skip the jargon. Your target audience could be your high school friends who became hair dressers or car mechanics, or why not your parents. Don't forget to ask someone from your target audience if they understood what you wrote or talked about. You will learn a lot.

If you don't network with your research colleagues on Facebook and/or Twitter, you don't really care about keeping up to date with what happens in your research community. Conferences happen only a few times per year, and research happens faster than that. Mailing lists are mainly used for calls for papers. Your peers will talk about events, papers, ideas, results online. To stay relevant, you need to keep up to date on what's happening. If you desperately want to keep your private life online separate from your professional life, create alternate social network accounts for professional networking. But really, if you are passionate about your research, why would you want to keep it separate from your private life?

The Tournament That Almost Wasn'T

Yesterday's Dark Souls Trilogy tournament was the best yet. But it almost never happened.


On Friday night, after the tournament draft and Resident Evil 2 exhibition match, I was celebrating a bit with the wife. These tournaments take a ton of work to organize but everything was in place--it was a great feeling! A couple glasses of wine and Game of Thrones episodes in, I went into my office tweak some camera settings for the tournament. Somehow, I knocked my tripod off my desk, right into my fiber internet modem. The same fiber internet that had never dropped a frame in 10 tournaments.

Tripods, it turns out, are deadly, because the evil thing severed my fiber line...12 hours before the biggest tournament I've ever done. In that moment, I wanted to Sekiro. Please Alt+F4.

Twelve runners, half a dozen commentators, thousands of viewers, all counting on my trusty internet connection.

Months of planning all seemingly destroyed by a single clumsy moment.

Friends to the rescue. I reached out to the GGLeague discord immediately, and the amazing members of this community came up with back up plans and talked me off the ledge.
I jumped into JoeDD's stream and asked him for a quick discord call to come up with contingencies. We worked it all out. Joe's a damn MVP.

My neighbor offered up their son's room and Comcast WiFi so I could stream the tournament. Their son is the same kid I slayed 30x over in Fortnite months ago. He almost uninstalled. But Fortnite kid gave up his room so I could stream the biggest Dark Souls tournament to date.

Comcast only dropped 900 frames in 9 hours. Pretty good. Even Comcast was on my side.

It really is dangerous to go alone. It's a cold dark place with no internet, no one to laugh with and nobody to have your back when shit goes down.

Thanks to everyone that had my back this weekend and thanks for the reminder that I'm on the best team there is on Twitch.

[Three Hexes] The World Clock

Campaign: The White Elves have unleashed a Chaos Golem to destroy the World Clock! The Magi of Time have slowed it down with their most powerful magical artifacts, but those are being consumed in the action. The Magi are desperate to find more artifacts or a permanent solution towards to destroying the dragon-golem and defeating the elves.

Homebase (Hex 0) (0100): Watch Tower of Kynze - The dwarf town of Kynze houses a Watch Tower - a small outpost of the Magi that connects to the dungeons of the World Clock. It has also become the default headquarters for the forces aligned against the White Elves, leading to an explosion of commerce and opportunity for those willing to engage in it. The surrounding farming towns and lands are filling with the tents of armies and forces, as well as attracting raids from the elves intent on disrupting the allies.




Three Hexes
(Hex scale is 24 miles)

Location 1 (0000): The World Clock - The world-shaping magics of the World Clock have transformed it's location into a maze of mysterious dungeons, tunnels and caverns, filled with creatures, artifacts and odd pockets of reality that provide weal and woe to those who enter the clock. The Magi allow any and all to enter the clock in order to learn from their experiences and to help guide the realities and power to a balanced effect that preserves the order of the world. Their need for Lawful artifacts to counter the White Elves has resulted in a huge increase of dungeon-delvers, many of whom have perished fighting among each other in the depths.

Location 2 (0002): The Twelve Knights - The reclusive Twelve Knights are training a natural Resonator, a very rare human mutant who can enhance the effects of magics cast around him. The Magi are wanting to put the boy next to the dragon as a way of destroying the golem, but their plans are frustrated by how unpredictable he becomes around any sort of magics - whether good or evil. The Knights believe that the boy must witness the suffering of the lands destroyed by the Elves, in order to shape him towards their cause, and are close to sending him on a dangerous trip near the dragon. 

Location 3 (0202): Dragon of Chaos - Desolation and destruction surrounds the golem and the White Elven army as they battle the attacking wedges of the Magi and humans who bear magical artifacts to wound the dragon. The weird tools, weapons and armors of the elves are highly sought after by rich nobles, but dangerous to obtain as each elven clan is protected by war wagons and strange creatures. Magi recruiters seek adventurers willing to make forays against the dragon or the elves to further slow down the creature.


MY APOLOGIES at missing the past couple of weeks! Work and conventions (Hello CincyCon!) filled up my time and I wasn't able to create these as I wanted. We return this week and will continue pushing on for my goal of 52 campaign starters!

"Three Hexes" are simple campaign starters to show that you don't need to do a lot to have interesting settings for people to play in. Feel free to use these in your game, campaign or as ways to spur on your own creativity and imagination!

I've purposefully left a lot of detail out because these are supposed to spur on your imagination! The scale is what I would use in my own world, but if something else suits you better, then go for it. I may have the features moved about on the hexes for clarity, if they don't suit you, move them!

2019 Predictions In L&D... Some Surprising Disappearances...

Great survey from my friend and namesake Donald Taylor. We are sometimes confused (in both senses of the word), but when it comes to what's hot in workplace L&D in 2019, he's the go to man. This is the 6thyear of his survey, by nearly 2000 professionals making 5332 votes from 92 countries.

Top three stars

  Personalisation/adaptive learning (1)
  Artificial Intelligence (2)
  Learning Analytics (3)
One could argue that all three of these top spots have been taken by AI. Sure there are aspects of personalized learning and analytics that are not AI, but it's there, underlying all three top spots. I have spent the last four years saying that Artificial Intelligence is the major shift in learning technologies with a post in 2014, saying 'My tech prediction for 2015 - two small letters…AI'. AI is changing the very nature of work, so it is ridiculous to imagine that it will not also change why, what and how we learn. Having started this journey in AI many years ago, four years ago I made an investment in an adaptive learning company, started my own AI company WildFire and began talking about this at conferences all over the world. To ignore this is to ignore reality and arguably the most important technology shift we've seen since the invention of print.

Three newbies
  Microlearning (5)
  Learning Experience Platforms (6)
  Performance support (11)
I've grouped these together as they show an interesting shift in thinking towards the more dynamic delivery of learning. I'd link the to the top three as chatbots and other forms of smart AI delivery are helping them get to learners in the workflow. My fear is that we'll get a fair bit of puff, as people replace the M with an X and deliver the same old stuff.

Three media

  Virtual/augmented reality (7)  
  Mobile delivery (8)
  Video (13)
Characterised by the fact that they're actually hardware and media defined, they're here to stay. VR/AR is gaining ground, as I thought it would, and we have, at last, a way to deliver learning by doing. Mobile is, of course, everywhere and video is coming of age, as we're seeing it better integrated into learning.

Three business topics

  Consulting more deeply with the business (9)
  Showing value (10)
  Developing the L&D function (15)
Although all three dropped 5,4 and 3 places respectively, they're still in respectful positions and it's good to see the profession trying to keep business relevance and professionalism on the table. I'd like to see more attention to research and evidence but we're getting there.

Three bags full

  Collaborative learning (4)
  Neuroscience/cognitive science (12)
  Curation (14)
Collaborative learning is pretty solid, and it's good to see that the science of learning is still in here. I still find it shocking that many practitioners have no idea what science says about learning and online learning. Lastly curation – bit of an oddball this one but it's here.

Three goners

  Gamification
  MOOCs
  Badges
Gamification seems to have shot its bolt and disappeared. I think we got fed up with the weak side of gamification, playing Pavlov with learners, so it seems to have run its course. MOOCs have drifted away, more education that L&D – the numbers taking vocational MOOCS are phenomenal but this is not the world of L&D, it is the world of learners (oh the irony). Badges have also gone. That's a shame but I too changed my mind on these and they seem to have had their day.
Conclusion
Once again, a great insight into how people are thinking. Over the years this has been a pretty good guide to what's rising, staying around and falling. Well done to Donald Taylor and his team.
