The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Thursday, May 29, 2014. Today was my first day in SABR101x. I spent about an hour getting used to the software, checking out the forums and completing the first track on the definition of Sabermetrics. To get the certificate, it looks like they want you to complete them all. I'm not after the certificate, I just want to work through the process. So, I started with the first module, Sabermetrics. Does it really matter? I finished the first module track in about 3...

The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Saturday, June 28, 2014. Gated MOOCs and Family Vacations. So, what's the solution? Well, two solutions hit me as I was completing my MOOC responsibilities today- plan vacations less than a week in length or don't sign up for classes when you plan on vacationing. I guess a third could be added here too- only sign up for MOOCs where you can take a week off and adapt. Wednesday, June 18, 2014. SABRx101 Module 3: Accessibility Is For Everyone.

NateWadman.com: MOOCs- When the New Car Smell Fades
http://www.natewadman.com/2014/06/moocs-when-new-car-smell-fades.html
The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Wednesday, June 11, 2014. MOOCs- When the New Car Smell Fades. Meanwhile in IHTS, the format isn't as good, but the volume of content is much more complete. I fell like I'm making a connection to the instructor through his videos and how he links to other older videos. The history is interesting and it keeps me going. However, just seeing the face and hearing the voice of the instructor demonstrates his passion and keeps me motivated. Faculty D2L Support Blog.

The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Tuesday, August 17, 2010. Facebook isn't the only site on the Internet. If you are only going to Facebook, it's like going on vacation and only seeing the hotel pool. It's nice, but there's so much more to see and do. Don't believe everything you read on Facebook. I know your friends wouldn't forward that rumor about Facebook charging $5 per user before checking it out, but did you? What if I changed my birthday to the same day next month? If you change your pro...

The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Last weekend, my father asked me to give him a new homepage for his laptop. When I got the laptop, I discovered the page he was using was iGoogle. The problem is, I have stopped using a homepage about 6 months ago and didn't know what options are out there. Immediately, I jumped to My Yahoo. But that's a little too technical for my father. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Faculty D2L Support Blog.

The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Tuesday, July 8, 2014. SABRx101: R You Kidding? I've reached Module 4 in SABRx101. I'm behind based on vacation and the gated content. I've fought motivation and the introduction to R requires us to download R and R Studio. Now come the problem sets. We go from "here's some code to copy" in the first couple of videos to "use the help feature for the rest" at the end. Are you kidding me? Faculty D2L Support Blog. SABRx 101: Done and Done.

The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Sunday, January 30, 2011. Now that we are a week into the semester, my busy time of year is starting to calm down. However, I've discovered something new which will irritate me during this time of year. That's right, it's the big red! In my email. I guess it means "High Importance". The problem is I'm finding it's used way too often, and most of the time, incorrectly. That's right 20. Are there really 20 urgent emails in a day while working at a college? This is...

NateWadman.com: More SABRx Surprises
http://www.natewadman.com/2014/07/more-sabrx-surprises.html
The public blog and portal of Nate Wadman. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. When I signed for SABRx 101 ( Description. I was signing up for a MOOC to look at the basics of baseball analytics. The content so far has been great. In fact, the SQL Sandbox using the Lahman database was integrated right into the courseware and allowed for exploration. Wonderful! Now, I need to catch up after being on vacation last week and what's the first unit? Downloading software needed to program. What did I sign up for again?
