Recently, I had a chance to catch up with a client who’d used my services to review their design processes. Per my approach, I’d generated a report with a large number of suggestions.

The end of the year can often be the busiest as we make time for the holidays, friends, and family. Things can get so busy that personally I welcome the regular working schedule after the hectic holiday season. But the end of the year is also a great time to recharge and rejuvenate your business or career. Often times all it takes is a little time away from work to come up with your most creative ideas.

Unlike traditional academic settings, where students often use the same standardized text year after year, the ever-changing world of digital learning means online students will quickly become disengaged from courses they see as outdated or irrelevant.

By Andrea May. It's been said that change is the only constant in life. I believe, however, that life holds one more constant: human beings are wired to resist change.
