ChatGPT and the classroom: Are you in or are you out?
It’s March 2023—almost a full three months into the year—and it seems like every academic and student (and their dog) has brought up artificial intelligence (AI) in their conversations and discussions. Whether it be in the form of chatbots, facial recognition, or smart assistants, artificial intelligence, or AI, has formed a strong presence in today’s…

Mini Assignment #4: Remixed
Remixing, in whatever form it takes, is an art in itself. The following images have been layered to create the visuals used in an adventurous print ad for my ad analysis class many years ago. Please enjoy the amateur editing.

Process Post #8: Two A.M. Thoughts: AI-generated edition
ChatGPT comes up in discussion with almost every class I go to, every instructor I talk to, and every conversation I have with someone. Though to be completely honest, I’ve never used it before. I’ve only seen and heard what it can do through others. So, what is it? What is ChatGPT? ChatGPT is an…

My ‘To-Do’ list and counting
I don’t think I’ve ever had so many things on my to do list before with such little to no motivation to do any of it. I don’t know what to do. To give you a visualizer, I have my Calendar and Reminders apps open together on one desktop screen so I can keep track…

Process Post #7: Time to build our literacies… ASAP
I remember discovering the worlds of YouTube, vloggers, and social media influencers all the way back in middle school. At the time, the internet seemed harmless.

I’m sorry, but no more snow please
Let me tell you about the snow we have in BC right now: it is outrageous. Yes, it’s winter and all, but I cannot deal with it right now. It’s way too early in the morning—two A.M. early, of course—and the snow will not let me sleep. Not only is it the fear of me…

Process Post #6: A print to web story
It is crazy to think about how far the ‘webpage’ has come. As Erin Kissane (2013) notes, much of the designs that we find on our computers and on websites are based on and borrowed from print work. From print to the web If you look behinds the scenes into a webpage created on WordPress…

Time to focus
So the other week, I spent a good number of hours doing anything but my homework. And something I didn’t get around to mentioning (because I was too tired to even bother) was that attempted to deep clean my phone. Cleaning up my camera roll was step one, and then clearing my home screen of…
