[00:00:00] Jason Johnston: What'd you have for breakfast?
[00:00:01] Christelle Daceus: I did not have breakfast. I was thinking here that I have two dogs, so that my mornings consist of a lot of making sure they get their walk in and getting my nice kind of walk in the morning and things like that. It helps me start my day. And I spend a lot of time just hydrating, tea, I like, because I think I have a full plate, I would call it.
I like to have a really quiet morning, just like the simplest morning that I can have, depending on what my first thing is to do that day. This is my first meeting today, I was like, okay, I'm just gonna chill with the dogs, get into my emails and things like that.
[00:00:40] John Nash: Nice. We've been getting more into tea lately. There's wonderful woman-owned emporium near our house called White Willow and they've got a new herbalist and, we picked up a lavender earl gray tea there last night.
[00:00:53] Christelle Daceus: Ooh, that sounds good.
[00:00:54] John Nash: The little things.
I'm John Nash here with Jason Johnston.
[00:01:00] Jason Johnston: Hey, John. Hey, everyone. And this is Online Learning in the Second Half, the online learning podcast.
[00:01:05] John Nash: Yeah, we're doing this podcast to let you in on a conversation we've been having for the last two years about online education. Look, online learning's had its chance to be great, and some of it is, but there's still quite a bit that isn't. And Jason, how are we going to get to the next stage?
[00:01:20] Jason Johnston: That's a great question. How about we do a podcast and talk about it?
[00:01:24] John Nash: That's perfect. What do you want to talk about today?
[00:01:27] Jason Johnston: Well, today we're probably going to hit some pretty big themes, John, and it's partly because we have connected with somebody that we first connected with at the Johns Hopkins Online Teaching Excellence Symposium.
So we have with us today, Christelle Dacius. Thank you so much for joining us. And we're really just looking forward to talking to you today.
[00:01:51] Christelle Daceus: too. Thank you so much.
[00:01:54] Jason Johnston: Well, we wanted to get started by just talking a little bit about what is it you do currently? You're connected in with JHU maybe talk about that first, but I also know that you're an entrepreneur. They have other pursuits outside of JHU as well.
[00:02:07] Christelle Daceus: Yeah, I am a long time edu
