Every May it seems like I disappear into fairyland…then I magically reappear come June! I’m not sure why this happens, but as you can see by the new look of the site, I haven’t been completely vacant. I’ve been working on a new look and feel- with a brand new logo and color scheme. I also have a new focus. Up until now, I’ve tried to focus on what my visitors want, but now I must focus on me. As you know, I’ll be starting up my Ph.D. in a month and the blog will now be my home for documenting my learnings and reflections. I hope you’ll stay with me on this journey.




Hi! I'm Leah- an instructional designer in Buffalo, NY who just started her Ph.D. When I'm not helping to put on amazing events like TEDxBuffalo or designing challenges on P2PU, I'm blogging here on my site about DIY and informal learning and alternative forms of credit. Thanks for joining me. 







Hello Leah,

Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks so much Jonathan! I appreciate the luck given- I’ll need it!
