I am an EdD student in the proposal process hoping to be done by Fall. The purpose of my qualitative study is to explore with a group of learning & development professionals how they identify the most useful approaches to help accelerate skill development of employees in their organizations.

I lose motivation very easily and I am trying to find ways to build in accountabilities that make sense to me - like this DWG.

Three kids, including a baby have made this goal very difficult during the pandemic (no childcare). My focus is on discussion in the art room (how ideas are shared prior to, during, and after the making of something). I think the dissertation will end up focusing in on difficult conversations in the art room rather than the broader topic of discussion. I teach as an adjunct at UMass Amherst in the Art Department, working with student teachers in their placements right now (mostly virtual).
