John Martin's Summary

I consult with UW-Madison instructors on how to better engage students and enhance teaching and learning with current technologies, such as #arisgames.

I draw on my doctoral research in sociocultural learning to develop mobile and collaborative tools for learning that leverage social networks and design-based andragogy.

I also try to find to time to help run a deep woods camp in Maine.

I'm skilled at pulling together diverse ideas to address general and specific issues. I'm rarely satisfied with the status quo, and will experiment simply to instigate discussion and further development. I'm bad at following directions.

John Martin's Experience

Educational Institution; 10,001+ employees; Higher Education industry

December 2009Present (2 years 3 months)

Still learning exactly what this means, but in general it covers a lot of ground in the area of "working with faculty and staff in combining tech and pedagogy."

Assistant Director

Flying Moose Lodge

June 1993Present (18 years 9 months)

A woods camp for boys that stresses experiential/expeditionary learning through weekly canoeing and hiking trips. No electricity, but plenty of creative power.

John Martin's Projects

  • ARIS Games

    Team Members: John Martin

    A very cool extension of the sort of place-based game design I've been doing since 2005. ARIS has a kick-butt browser-based game editor easy enough to use that anyone can create their first compelling ARIS game in an hour.
