Un-CORK-ing the #OER24 Thoughts
My 5th OER conference is in the books! I’m just getting back to my desk after taking the weekend to reflect and think through the experience of OER24 this year and I’m so grateful for the entire trip. From coffee shops, trips to see the Titanic’s final port of call, seeing family, catching up with […]
Reclaiming the #edtech4life mentality
As I’m preparing for OER24 (so excited!!!) I wanted to write a blog post about my presentation coming up to get my thoughts together. I’m keeping the blog train rolling. I’ll be on the ground representing Reclaim and the EdTech team. We have some fun things planned leading up to the presentation (check Reclaim.tv on […]
Full Circle with an UMW Alumni Panel
Yesterday I had the privilege of speaking on a panel for Communications and Digital Studies Majors at the University of Mary Washington! I joined 4 other students who recently graduated (within the last 10 years) to talk about our experiences in the job market and how we got our current jobs. (Shoutout to Brandon for […]
WP Campus 2023: New Orleans
(This post has been a long time coming!) Back in July 2023, I checked off a bucket list city and traveled to New Orleans with some of the Reclaim crew, Jim and Lauren to attend WP Campus 2023 at Tulane University. This was such a fun event! As my first in-person conference after the pandemic […]
Turning 10
In August 2013 (Whois.com officially says August 28, 2013), 18-year-old Meredith sat in her first college class at Mary Washington. I was introduced to a thing called a domain name. She was asked to register a domain name as part of a class and was asked to write weekly reflections on the readings. And she […]
Reclaim Open: Where We’re Going
Whew– what a week of Reclaim Open! This was Reclaim Hosting’s 4th hosted conference and one of the best I’ve attended to date (and hopefully many more to come!). It was my first in-person conference since the pandemic and it absolutely did not disappoint! The week overall was incredible, full of laughter, catching up with […]
Projects Lately
I think it’s about time that I dust this blog off! via GIPHY It’s been almost a year since I last blogged about one of Reclaim’s first Flex Courses in Reclaim Ed Tech, and now we’ve completed the first year! Throughout that year we’ve put on several flex courses, workshops, and even planning for a […]
Form of Awesome: Week 1
This month, I’m participating in some professional development offered through Reclaim Hosting’s EdTech Subscription, where we’re diving into all the Gravity Forms offers. Last week, we met for the first time so I wanted to jot down some notes and set up some gorals for the next 3 weeks! First, I did have some experience […]
New Tool Find: Scribe
I wanted to highlight a very cool tool I found (thanks to TikTok!). I am always running folks through processes, like renewing domains or transferring accounts, where the process would be the same each time you go through the scenario. I write documentation for these processes or writing within tickets. Any time I can Use […]
2022 Desk Setup
As promised in my last post, I am writing a post about the tech specs as to how everything comes together on my desk. Working from home again meant I needed to come up with a dedicated space to work, and moving into a new space allowed Brandon and I to think through the perfect […]
