The hallmark of expertise is no longer how much you know. It's how well you synthesize. Information scarcity rewarded knowledge acquisition. Information abundance requires pattern recognition. It's not enough to collect facts. The future belongs to those who connect dots.

Researchers at MIT have questioned whether SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound) actually work. They suggest we might get better outcomes if we make our goals FAST (frequently discussed, ambitious, specific and transparent) not SMART.

Proud to have been chosen as Chair of the Board for @STLHESAPES (formerly known as the President🙂). I know it will be a big job; complex, yet also rewarding. Leading is never easy, but lots of optimism as we work to advance teaching and learning in Canadian higher education
