Any comments? Exactly! Why do you think women tend to co-author? Does this hurt them in the process of getting tenure? Thank you so much for your excellent response. Ok, we have two other questions Currently we are looking for a department head and assistant professor, as a first year master's student... I'm not sure what to look for Any advice? litmus test? Thank you for answering my questions about literature reviews, dissertations, and mixed methods. There are 2 schools of thought on finishing a PhD?one says, "get it done yesterday," the other calls for a more measured approach. You did it quickly?would you recommend the same to others, strictly from a personal viewpoint? (I was the one who asked those questions in the email). Joanne Bentley says the same thing about finishing before doing anything else. Did you feel any discrimination based on your gender in publishing? We really liked hearing those comments They are extremely helpful to us women PhD students. How do you select a mentor and go about forming that relationship? Would it be appropriate to have a mentor in a different field? What three books would you recommend to a PhD student? Besides your own Because we all have it How did the idea for your book come about? Why has differential psychology been virtually ignored over the past 1-15 years in instructional design? I agree (Melynda says). I couldn't agree more (high five to Marcy!) Will your new edition address some of the issues of learner preferences? yeas! uh...yes. Number one, just talk about it Present both sides the no-significant difference side and the it makes all the difference side Yes- currently we are reading for Yanghee Kim and a lot of her work deal with designing instruction for individuals learners David Wiley doesn't believe there are differences of learners She is. So, even just a discussion would be good. We will. (Melynda says) Perhaps the differences lie in the affective and conative domains as opposed to the cognitive or behavioral differences. Would you agree that with the advent of increased processor speed and bandwidth we are able to deliver instruction tailored to individual learners? deliver it more effectively. (operator error...sorry about that.) Good point! Excellent point. We here agree that is perhaps the best outcome of any instruction. We're running out of time...do you have any final thoughts? Melynda wants to know how to get a postdoc at FSU :) She'll be ready in 2 years One final question: How's Kermit and his keyboarding? Well, Marcy it has been a great pleasure having you. Thank you very much! Bring the vibraphone to AECT? Thank you again. Have a great day!
