Driver without licence or insurance caught by police at East Midlands Airport despite lockdown
He is not the first to be fined £200 for being at the airport without a good reason

A man who broke the lockdown rules by driving to East Midlands Airport also found himself in trouble for driving without a licence or any insurance.
The man was one of several people to have been fined this year after being stopped during the regular patrols around the airport by the police.
In this case, the man did not have a valid driving licence or any insurance, so - depending on any previous convictions - will probably be facing a court fine for those offences on top of the fine for breaking the lockdown, which is £200 for a first offence.
The Leicestershire Police officers based at East Midlands Airport said in a tweet at 7.15pm last night "Whilst conducting patrols at East Midlands Airport perimeter came across male who was in breach of covid restrictions having travelled from Derbyshire.

"He also had no valid driving licence and no insurance. Male has been reported for said offences."
Last month Leicestershire Police revealed they had fined a pair of plane spotters at the airport who were visiting from the Nottingham area.
And a man at the airport to meet his Tinder date also found himself being fined recently. As well as breaching the lockdown he had a cannabis grinder and some drugs on him.

Do people have trouble understanding you? Do they seem confused when you speak English?
Is it difficult for you to understand native speakers? Do you feel frustrated because you still can't understand English speakers easily?
You have studied English for years. You read English well, but when its time to speak– you feel nervous, foolish, embarrassed, and shy when speaking English.
Is it possible that you will never speak English well?
Are you angry that you studied for years but still cannot speak English easily?
What is wrong? Have you wasted all of your study time? Have you wasted all of your English vocabulary? Will you ever speak English easily?
Will you ever feel relaxed and happy when you speak English?
"Effortless English is great! I love it! Since using the system, my speaking has improved so fast. My friends can't believe it. They all want to know the secret. Of course, I tell them all about Effortless English.
I'm A.J. Hoge, the creator of the Effortless English Teaching System and the Director of The Effortless English Club- the most complete English speaking system for adult learners. My audio lessons are best-sellers in over 25 countries.
Fifteen years ago, at my first teaching job, I had a student named Gladys. Gladys was wonderful. She was intelligent, friendly, and she worked hard. Every day she studied English textbooks for 4 hours! She tried to remember 50 new vocabulary words every day!
But, after 6 months of hard work, she still could not speak. Sadly, this was true for all of the student's in the class. I felt terrible. So I asked other teachers for help. But they had the same problem.. very few of their students improved either. That's when I realized something was wrong– something is wrong with normal English teaching methods.
I wanted to help all of the happy, friendly, intelligent, wonderful students like Gladys– and I decided I would find an answer. I would find a way to help my students speak English quickly, easily, and automatically. For many years, I studied books about English teaching. I constantly tried new methods in my classes. I read research studies.
Eventually, I got a Masters degree in Teaching English… and that's when I found incredible new methods. I was so excited! Immediately I began to use these new methods in my classes… and every day I worked hard to IMPROVE these methods.
After several more years of testing and improving, I finally found the answer! My students began to improve quickly. They learned to speak easily and automatically. And even better– they loved my classes and they were very very happy!
I was excited! I loved seeing my students improve. My classes were full of excited students!
But then I had another problem– I could only help a few students in my class. Yet, I knew there were thousands, perhaps millions of students who needed my help. I knew that everywhere in the world, there were English students who wanted to speak English well.
Finally, I had an idea– I would record my lessons and offer them on the internet to English students everywhere! It took a long time, and a lot of work, but finally I finished a full pack of lessons – my Original Effortless English Lessons!
Now, I can help students everywhere in the world… and now I can help you.
I'm so grateful to be your teacher. I promise I will always do my best to help you speak excellent English.
Read this article to learn more about the incredible Effortless English System that I made for you.
What if you were not to blame? What if it was the old methods, old lessons, and old textbooks that caused your problems? What if you could speak excellent English- and finally succeed?
You can do it! It is possible for anyone to speak excellent English.
Now it is time to imagine a better future.
The truth is- if you continue to use the same learning methods- you will never speak English well. You will always have problems with your speaking.
However, there is a new way. When you use the right method, you improve easily. In fact, in six months you will have incredible speaking power – easily.
Native speakers will understand you easily. You will understand them. You will finally feel relaxed, happy, and confident when you speak English.
You need to change your learning method, and the first thing you must do is to forget English grammar!
Does English grammar make you feel sad, bored, and depressed? Are you worried that you will never truly use English grammar correctly?
What if I told you that grammar rules are not the key to speaking English easily, correctly, and automatically?
The best English learners are children, of course. Why?
In fact, its because they don't study grammar and they don't learn from textbooks. They use very specific methods and "rules" for learning.
I call these the 7 Rules of Effortless English, and you probably already know them from my email course.
What if you could learn excellent pronunciation, a large vocabulary, and automatic grammar– easily– would you be excited?
If I told you that English grammar is actually easy to learn when you use the correct system, would you feel happier about learning English?
Well, its true. English grammar is easy, but only if you learn it correctly. And the correct way is not studying grammar rules.
You must learn grammar intuitively. You must learn grammar subconsciously. You must learn grammar naturally.
You must learn grammar easily and effortlessly- just like children.
Nid was tired. She had been studying English for 8 years, but her speaking was still terrible.
She was going to an English school. Every night, she went to class. Every night, she studied a textbook. She studied grammar rules.
She had been doing this for 8 years– but no success. 8 long years.
Tired of school, one night she searched the internet for "Learn English". She found Effortless English.
7 days later she got The Effortless English Club lessons. Her life changed. She used the system everyday. She was surprised how easy and interesting it was. No textbooks. No grammar rules to remember. The articles were interesting, and the stories were funny and easy to remember.
Then something amazing happened. She met an American named James in a coffee shop in Bangkok. Without thinking, she started to talk with James. The words came out automatically. No effort. No translating. Easily.
She felt incredible. She was relaxed and smiling and laughing. She was speaking easily. She didn't feel any stress or worry. James listened to her. He understood her ideas and feelings.
She and James talked for 2 hours without stopping. They exchanged emails and Skype IDs. They continued to talk to each other every week.

Well, that's exactly what I did. Effortless English uses secrets that work– the newest ideas from the top English learning experts in the world.

NBCU's Revamped Bluprint Draws Up An E-Commerce Future For The Media Giant

Lost amid last year's Comcast bids to buy Fox and Sky was the continuing transformation of a much smaller acquisition that may have big impacts on the pay-TV giant as it leverages e-commerce and community to unlock revenue and connect more deeply with audiences.
That smaller acquisition was Craftsy, which provided video lessons on traditional crafts and hobbies such as sewing, knitting and woodworking, and sold supplies to help pursue those crafts and hobbies. The Denver-based site sold in May 2017 for a reported $230 million, peanuts compared to the roughly $55 billion that Comcast spent to buy all of Sky last summer, and possibly less than what it spent in its failed bid for most of 21st Century Fox.
But even as those mega-deals were playing out, Comcast's NBCUniversal was restructuring and rebranding Craftsy into Bluprint, expanding the site's range of offerings and transforming the site into a subscription video-on-demand service.
Bluprint has ventured into such new categories as photography, writing, dance and yoga. And most importantly, the company is beefing up an already notable e-commerce operation to better service not just Bluprint but other NBCU operations.
This week, NBCU finished the first phase of the Bluprint transition, ending the last vestiges of Craftsy's transactional VOD sales while "combin(ing) the spirit of Craftsy with the magic of Bluprint," as the site puts it.
To use a Hollywood-style triangulation, think of Bluprint as Hobby Store Meets YouTube Meets Local Extension Classes, though it's clear NBCU executives have much bigger hopes.
The site – which can be found on the web and most major mobile and connected-TV platforms – mixes the traditional "Three Cs" of Content, Community and Commerce with a fourth, Celebrities/Influencers, said Bluprint CEO and co-founder John Levisay. The rebrand and shift to SVOD were designed to encompass a broader range of creative pursuits while also creating a stickier fan experience.
"The problem with that (transactional VOD) model was that none of us are uni-dimensional," said Levisay. "You may want to take that photography class, but then you're like, 'Gosh, I really want to learn Thai cooking, or take a fitness class, or just watch a lean-back kind of inspirational series on a painter.'"
Creating more lean-back content also will help keep audiences coming back. The approach is paying off, with SVOD customers on average watching lessons across five categories, instead of the previous focus on one main area of interest, Levisay said.
That sampling may lead to a more robust e-commerce play too. As part of that, the company has created a line of "get-started" boxes of supplies for people wanting to try a new creative pursuit, said Dave Howe, NBCU president of strategy and commercial growth.
"The challenge with people finding hobbies is they just don't know where to begin," Howe said. "They don't have any kind of roadmap of where to start, and they stumble around. This is a structured learning opportunity in a fun way that gives you access to the world's experts in those categories, and materials, and a plan and a roadmap and a blueprint."
Bluprint is one of numerous NBCU experiments with online video in entertainment, news and sports, Howe said. What makes Bluprint different is its reach beyond TV's traditional reliance on ad dollars and affiliate fees.
"The object of the exercise is to explore new revenue streams, primarily digital, that are complimentary and strategically fit with the business that we're in now," said Howe. "Where we see an opportunity, especially in the direct-to-consumer digital space, is in the new revenue streams around e-commerce and subscriptions. Those direct-payment opportunities give us a relationship with the consumer that provides a lot of data (and) real insights into consumer behavior. It enables us to build that into our core content business... in a way that's very organic."
NBCU is "very interested" in other companies with strong community and e-commerce components, Howe said, even as it's looking to build those into its existing shows and networks in a fashion similar to what Bluprint already has.
"Once you have that scale, you can basically leverage that direct relationship to grow new revenue streams, that's what we're doing," Howe said. "We started in the content space, and potentially, we're going to build a sizable e-commerce capability across the whole company, because it makes sense."
The Bluprint fulfillment operation and warehouse in Indianapolis now can store and ship merchandise from other parts of NBCU, such as gear sold through the sports division, Howe said. It's also developing more private-label products that provide higher margins and exclusivity.
"What's new about this is we're now creating products that are slightly less based on the TV content and more based on consumer needs and lifestyle, consumer products and opportunities that are still organic to the content that we're making, but aren't just branded Top Chef knives or other products which are more obvious," Howe said.
Expect even more expansion as the company settles strategic issues such as whether to add categories such as music production and sports coaching, or duplicate what it has in languages such as Spanish, German and Portuguese, Levisay said.
Bluprint subscriptions are $7.99 a month, or $79.99 a year. Buy an annual membership and you get to keep one instructional video per month, a model similar to Audible's. Levisay declined to release subscriber data but said signup growth has been "very strong" and retention "great."
The company is also cross-promoting its talent with NBCU's traditional broadcast and cable networks, from a monthly segment (typically focused on cooking or baking) on the Today show, to appearances on reality shows such as Making It and the Kardashians and Real Housewives franchises.
In turn, stars from the TV side, such as Al Roker in a backyard grilling video, have appeared on Bluprint programming. Many celebrities have personal passions such as cooking or painting that have nothing to do with what made them famous. They're ideal guests for the site,, but Levisay promises to be discriminating.
"As we continue to work with NBCU, we will up the level on the Fourth C even more but there has to be an authenticity there," Levisay said. The relationship with NBCU has "given us better access to vertical celebrities and those who transcend their given category. (But) I don't ever want to have someone on the platform who's a celebrity for celebrity's sake."
The site also is growing its own talent, such as Joshua John Russell of the Man About Cake YouTube channel. Russell has nearly 600,000 subscribers, collaborates with online notables such as iJustine, (Justine Ezarik), and gives regular shoutouts to Bluprint, where he claims to find inspiration and techniques even in categories far from his cake-decorating specialty.
The next step is to help that home-grown talent drive more merchandise sales and engagement, said Howe.
"Rather than letting our own talent figure out how to how to build businesses off the back of the fame that we provide, we're looking at how we can also do that in tandem or how we can help them do that and give them ways to build those businesses," Howe said.
With a 4,000-title library with 1,300 classes, five production studios in Denver, and access to more studios in New York and Los Angeles, the company is now routinely creating a wide range of fresh content.
The company also is acquiring programming from overseas libraries, primarily English-language, and is in discussions with Sky-owned Love Productions about possible U.S. versions of hit reality-show formats such as The Great Britsh Baking Show, The Great British Sewing Bee and The Great British Pottery Throwdown.
Conversely, the company is building reality formats of its own, featuring its own talent, that can be part of daytime programming for NBCU's Bravo network, Howe said. It's also bringing out revamped iOS and Android apps in the next couple of months to further expand user options and experiences.
"Just because something's educational, doesn't mean it has to be, 'Eat your vegetables,'" Levisay said. "It should be fun. These are fun pursuits."

The Interactive Advertising Bureau on Thursday released the latest version of its Quality Assurance Guidelines (QAG)—the self-policing framework aimed at insuring the transparency and quality of digital advertising between buyers and sellers--for public comment.
Among changes, the updated guidelines go beyond the initial focus on networks and exchanges to encompass the full scope of programmatic trading including large publishers, demand-side platforms (DSPs), sell-side platforms (SSPs), trading desks, agencies and marketers.
They also provide further detail on obtaining certification through the QAG program, required disclosure and add a new option for being certified by a third party. The document integrates video and mobile advertising into the main body of rules for promoting brand safety.
The new guidelines -- QAG 2.0 -- offer new sections providing an overview of digital advertising transactions, how disclosures by sellers are broken down, and how different formats, including video and mobile, are treated under the quality assurance framework. Disclosure, for instance, is divided into three phases: inventory acquisition, evaluation, and transaction execution.
Generally, transaction details and level of transparency are disclosed before a buy is executed. For programmatic buys, full real-time disclosure requires the seller to provide the complete URL of the original page where an ad displays to the buyer's system. Other types of data shared under programmatic trading might include auction type, inventory category and whether the CPM floor is manual or dynamic.
For video and mobile advertising, the guidelines outline disclosure according to the technical context, content type, and type of placement for each format. For video, the context, for example, could be digital in-stream video, the content where ads are show might be video, a game, or text, and the placement would indicate the kind of in-stream video, such as ad pods or skippable ads.
In addition to self-certification, QAG 2.0 offers the option of having an independent vendor certify a company (including non-IAB members) under the program. The process is essentially the same for both, involving assigning a compliance officer, attending training, vetting inventory and submitting a compliance checklist.
At the end of the six months, the IAB will publish the initial list of certified companies. To date, the IAB says some 30 entities have been certified, with another 15 committing to do so under the new guidelines. Advertising.com, BrightRoll, Casale Media, Google, Microsoft, and ValueClick are among those already certified.
The deadline for public comment on the guidelines is May 20.

As the leader of this timely effort that is the result of months of hard work, I am confident it will serve a multitude of key stakeholders beyond networks & exchanges. The new guidelines capture input and feedback from industry experts and participants from across the digital advertising ecosystem who recognize the critical need for a program that will uniformly allow for transparency, quality, brand safety and mutual trust. In fact, the industry has been so anxious for a program like this that 50 companies already signed on board to participate in QAG 2.0 before the new guidelines have even been finalized. We look forward to getting comments from the broader digital marketing arena, so we can continue our momentum and progress, and promote further adoption.
Domenico Tassone from Viewthrough Measurement Consortium, April 21, 2013 at 9:56 a.m.
Pretty impressive - looking forward to reviewing.

Announcing the SPARK Media Digital Sales Academy.
SPARK Media is ensuring a continuous flow of quality digital personnel for the media industry, while 'future-proofing' the company. It is proud to announce a new expansion within the company: The SPARK Media Digital Sales Academy.
The academy is headed up by Commercial Director, Marc du Plessis and Strategic HR Head, Viv Randall, who saw the opportunity for SPARK Media to run a Digital Sales Academy for up and coming potential entrants into the digital media industry.
Interviews were held at SPARK Media's Johannesburg office, and a vigorous process was undertaken to select the successful candidates. In addition to their in house training, each intern will be put through the Red and Yellow digital marketing course, a custom developed course in Digital Media Sales and a specialisation in social media or mobile marketing.
To further speed up the knowledge process, they will be integrated into the day to day work life at SPARK Media, whilst spending valuable time with each division, in order to learn the details of each department. The outcome of this programme is to develop and groom the interns to take on a digital sales role at SPARK Media or within other divisions of the Caxton Group.

Every country-house owner knows how important it is to have not only the car but also specially arranged for him the space where you can create a comfortable environment for the storage and maintenance of the machine. Today there are several options for placement of the garage on the site. This article considers the projects of houses with garage under one roof: the advantages and disadvantages of such a decision, as well as peculiarities of planning and construction.
thanks to this Association significantly save area. Such rational decisions allow us to place even the most modest station.
The disadvantages of this solution include the need for high-quality heat and sound insulation between these two rooms, as otherwise the cold from the garage will get into the adjacent room, and the sound of the engine of the vehicle will disturb the household.
In the selection process or development of the project, it is important to consider how these objects will be placed relative to each other. And in this case, the question arises again concerning garage because the location of the house is almost always obvious.
side ground the garage is on the right or left side of the house. Its main convenience is the ability to finish it to the already finished house, as in the case of the first two options both facilities shall be designed and erected at the same time.
One-storey houses are much more often than buildings with two or three floors. This is due to many factors, including ease of installation of the Foundation as well as the simplicity of implementation of the project. After all, a one-storey building does not require slabs and stairs. The question of compatibility of the garage one-storey houses are the most convenient because they eliminate the need to create changes in roof level.
It is extremely important to pay due attention to the layout of one-storey house with a garage, and place all the premises thus to avoid undesirable neighborhood. For example, this applies to children's and garage, which must not be adjacent. Ideally, between the living rooms and storage space for car, must be a technical room, a kitchen or bathroom.
A useful tip! It is not necessary that the garage and the house were located close to each other. Leaving between them a small passage, which can be, for example, a pantry, you will create something like air cushion that provides additional heat and sound insulation.
If to speak about the specifics of the arrangement of the roof for this design, for this purpose, they often resort to the arrangement of the gable roof, as it is the easiest and most affordable option. However, some owners do not want to use for your home standard solutions, find more interesting options.
Thus, the house can be designed pent roof and above the garage is flat. This houndstooth design looks great, only the drainage system in this case requires especially close attention.
Construction of a two storey house the site's owners may resort for different reasons. Someone focused on the number of people living in the house, and someone just wants to build a big and luxurious house. But when it comes to projects of 2-storey houses with garage, often this is dictated by lack of space on the site. Therefore, the option to have a comfortable accommodation with all amenities even on a very modest site, for many becomes the only solution.
Layouts of a two story house with a garage there is a huge number. Among them are the fairly simple design or complex multi-level projects. However, the most common option considered is this: the garage is in the basement, on the ground floor – living room, kitchen, bathroom and hozomeen (storage room, furnace room) on the second – living rooms. To connect to all levels of are the stairs.
A useful tip! If you extend the basement, then the extra space can serve as a place for decorating verandas. Looking at photo 2-storey house with a garage, you can be sure that this addition gives the structure a certain exquisite look. Moreover, this solution will allow you to have additional a area to stay.
Another photo project two-storey house with a garage, which is always worth paying attention to – long building at the end of which is a garage. This option is very useful when we are talking about the need for departure and arrival, as gates road box will have an entrance directly on the street.
But in this case it is best to provide two entrances to the house from the outer side (i.e., from the side of the garage) and the yard. As in the previous project, next best placed non-residential premises (bathroom, kitchen, pantry), and all rooms are equip on the top floor.
equally important is the waterproofing. To ensure the in car unit is the appropriate level of humidity, it is important at the planning stage to provide a good drainage.
A useful tip! In the case of placing on the side of the garage after the house was built, it is extremely important to keep a bunch of walls. This should be incorporated in the project and to be respected at all stages of construction.
Often because on the site there is not enough space to build a separate garage, often have to deal with the fact that there are not one, but two cars at once. Of course, this is the most popular and convenient form of transport, but how to solve the problem with the storage and maintenance of another vehicle? Consider projects of houses with garage for 2 cars.
Installation of ventilation in the cellar and the basement garage. Ventilation metal garage.
the area allotted for one car should not be less than 18 m2. It is necessary first of all to the garage you could put almost any car. After all, even if the dimensions of your machine very modest, in a few years everything can change, and it is necessary to take into account.
the gates to the garage should be such that the departure did not represent any difficulties. Usually the standard sizes are 2,5×2 m in width and height, respectively. Rules for the height of the garage in a private house also provide that the ceiling of the car box should be at least 2.2 m.
A useful tip! As the car consists of metal, it is easy to corrode in the case of storage in inappropriate conditions. Therefore, it is desirable to provide high quality heating and ventilation systems.
When viewing photos of garages in private homes, it should be noted that often this part of the structure looks neorganichno with its environment. Often, the garage looks unnatural against the background of exquisite home, spoiling your view of the perception of the whole picture.
Consider what materials can be used for construction, as well as some styles more than others are suitable for construction.
Russkaya USAD'ba, or, to put it simply – timber home, with garage or without. Typically, such buildings, made of wood, are popular outside the city and rarely built within large settlements. Perusing projects of houses from a bar with a garage, you can see that such a common material as wood may be used to implement a very unusual, but very practical ideas.
House in English style is characterized by its simplicity and at the same time elegance. Simple lines and geometric shapes can be added with columns or mouldings that distinguishes the house from others. For construction can be used in a variety of materials. Including you can find projects of houses from foam blocks with garage.
Empire – the most solemn style, in which every feature of the building should create a festive mood. Not the easiest solution when it comes to the need to make a garage attached to the house. The photo, however, perfectly demonstrate just how dramatic can be the outcome if you approach this issue with due care.
A useful tip! Among the unconventional ideas we can consider the project one-storey house with attic and garage. Implementation of this idea will allow to create additional living space, even if the garage and the upstairs rooms will have to attach to the existing home.
the undisputed leader for many years, is a brick. The features of this material include a large weight which causes needed to lay a solid Foundation. In addition, the cost of bricks can not be called low, which is, however, quite justified by its durability, insulation properties and a long service life.
Despite the fact that the implementation of the plan one story house with a garage is not an easy task, many owners do not stop this, and additionally creating other structures – gazebo, sauna, veranda, etc. Often provided in the projects of single-storey houses with garage and terrace with bath, which themselves would occupy too much space on the site.
This solution has its difficulties, but at the same time retains benefits in the event of any combination – save time, effort, and building materials. In addition, there is no need to overcome significant distance from one object to another.
You can also consider an interesting variant of a more rational use of available resources. For example, to heat a garage from the furnace, which is located in the bath. Sometimes this option is used for partial heating of the house. However, in this case, it is important to design to the heat from the furnace was lost, and could be used.
Important! This method of heating is best used as additional. The more that this method is not very effective when it comes to premises with an area exceeding 100 m2.
Looking through photos of single-storey houses with garage, as well as more complex buildings that have a loft or room, it must be noted that this decision is not only an opportunity to save money. For many it is the opportunity to design the most comfortable to operate a home that allows you to conveniently store and maintain the cars existing in the family.


Microneedling is a cosmetic process in which a certified device injects "microneedles" into the deeper layers of skin in a certain area. This promotes the production of collagen and elastin for the skin and painlessly rejuvenates trouble areas. The procedure works in concert with the body's natural immune system, and, over time, helps to replace damaged skin with healthy, newer, more youthful skin.
Microneedling tightens the skin and improves volume on the face. It can also be used to reduce the appearance of acne or scars. Many patients with mild to severe skin conditions use microneedling to alleviate their symptoms. Other patients use Microneedling to erase stretch marks on their arms, stomachs or other areas of the body.
Microneedling is beneficial because it returns the elasticity of your skin to better than it was previously. It can erase unsightly scarring or evidence of stretching and boost your overall confidence level too.
For more information concerning our Microneedling treatment options, or to speak to one of our staff about your unique condition, please contact Refresh at 215-968-3057.

Productive managers and executives are an organization�s most valuable assets. Often, thousands of dollars have been invested to bring them to a high level of performance. But sometimes, the unexpected happens. Attitudes change. Performance deteriorates. There is a crisis in human relations that requires immediate attention.
Our Coaching program is designed to protect your investment in management and executive-level people whose performance has declined or whose skills appear no longer adequate. It also seeks to help the individual executive/manager make necessary adjustments to save his or her career with the company, or upon proper reflection, prepare for an orderly no-fault exit, if accommodations cannot be made.
Routine performance reviews are sometimes not sufficient to help the under performing manager. An experienced outside counselor using a form of benign intervention, can effectively determine the causes of performance breakdowns or personal conflicts, reopen lines of communication, and regenerate personal commitment.
Our Coaching service is a confidential, one-on-one relationship between an experienced external coach and an individual motivated to succeed. Our coaching projects typically consist of three components: identification of issues and commitment; observation and assessment; action, follow-up and completion. Regular meetings are held to evaluate progress and fine-tune performance.
To keep pace with the constant change in today's workplace, a self-managed, resilient career is a critical necessity for personal and organizational success. Key components of our programs are the introduction of a pro-active, integrated career management model; self-assessment; and an overview of workplace trends.


Today we have the first post in a series on building a flipped course by Natascha van der Zwan and Alexandre Afonso. Both are assistant professors at the Institute of Public Administration at Leiden University, the Netherlands. They can be reached by emailing Natascha at n.a.j.van.der[dot]zwan[at]fgga[dot]leidenuniv[dot]nl.
Since I have started teaching graduate courses on research methods, I have struggled with the way in which such courses are usually taught. Why do we still teach research methods from textbooks? Most academics will agree that you learn best how to do research by simply doing it, and the traditional lecture format, where students are rather passive, seems inappropriate to achieve this.
For this reason, my Leiden colleague Alexandre Afonso and I have spent the last two years developing a new way of teaching research methods to our students, transforming our existing course into a flipped classroom using blended learning. The flipped classroom was developed with the financial and material support of Leiden University's ICTO program and the Faculty of Governance and Global Affairs. Alexandre and I will describe what our flipped classroom consists of, how we set it up, and our experiences teaching it.
The idea behind our Research Methods 3.0 course was simple: in order to be able to spend more class time on practicing hands-on research skills, we needed to move some of our teaching online. In our department, graduate courses often only meet once a week and the duration of a typical course is seven weeks, too short a time to cover the full range of social science methodologies. We quickly learned that our students did not need such a broad survey to carry out their own thesis projects. This led to our second decision: not only would part of the course be moved online, but it would also be modular, allowing students to pick and choose which research methods they wanted to specialize in.
The redesign of our course then centered on two parts. The online component contains a small number of learning modules, combining short video presentations of no more than 7 minutes with online readings, quizzes and assignments. The online modules focus on the most important research methods and techniques in our field (e.g. qualitative interviewing, survey analysis, regression analysis, case studies, etc.). The basics for each method is explained in the video presentations, after which students are expected to do a small number of readings and make a larger assignment. We also built a number of modules around academic skills. These modules targeted specifically those skills that we know our students sometimes struggle with: finding academic literature in repositories and specialized databases or – in an international program like ours – academic writing in English. The modules are accompanied by a podcast channel on which our colleagues discuss their use of particular methods in their research.
We also found it important to have a face-to-face component of the course, during which students could engage in group-based learning activities and receive direct supervision from a faculty member. Initially, this was going to be a series of in-class seminars during which students would be able to apply the insights gained through the online modules to their individual research projects. We found out — the hard way — that students would be at varying stages in their thesis project by the time they took our course. This complicated how we could teach the seminars. We therefore replaced the seminars with more general workshops tied to particular online modules, during which students would do assignments and exercises designed by us, rather than work on their own research projects.
The flipped classroom on research methods works like a toolbox that students can use to learn the methods they find useful for their thesis. It is flexible and not constrained by time like usual lectures: students can watch as many videos as they want, as many times as they want. Contact time in class is freed up as much as possible for interaction and discussing the concrete application of research methods.
Throughout the whole process of designing and then teaching our flipped classroom, we were lucky to receive the strong financial support of our Faculty. Being new to the game, however, we quickly discovered how difficult it is to transform a course like ours.
In our next post, we will talk more about the practicalities of building a flipped classroom.

We were boarding our second flight. We had been gone for a week, and while we were greatly blessed by time alone, my husband and I were ready to see the faces we love most in this world, our children. It was "stupid" early in the morning and I was about to turn my phone off and fall into the travel coma that was beckoning my body. The vibration startled me because I couldn't imagine who would be calling at 5am—but factoring in the time change—it made perfect sense.
The voice on the other line complained to me, through tears, about how he couldn't go to school that morning. He had been sent home on Wednesday, so no school on Thursday was simply following protocol. But this was Friday. I used my best firm voice to encourage, rather insist, that he do what I was asking him (thousands of miles away isn't highly effective). When that flight landed, and we had one more, I checked my phone only to learn he had not, in fact, gone to school.
They questioned me, even as we finally entered our house, about the suggested punishment.
Maybe you know what I mean. Maybe you "help" God, or give advice like I am so often guilty of doing. It seems stupid, arrogant, and even embarrassing to say aloud. Why don't we go ahead and fire ourselves from such "justice league" roles? While our efforts probably provide a heavenly chuckle—they are unnecessary.
As a mom—I am well aware of my children's struggles. No one ever needs to point them out. I'm so closely connected to their lives that I've seen the challenges emerge and-at times-grow out of hand. As soon as I had a hint of what was happening on that early morning phone call, I began thinking of how I would deal with the situation —in due time. Not over the phone, thousands of miles away-at an unnatural hour of the day.
How much more so with God?
I didn't need the punishment advice from my children. He doesn't either.
Let's choose to accept the pink slip and rest in being fired from such an unnecessary role. Let's lay down the weapons of revenge, the bitterness of an "unnoticed" wrong, and the anger of injustice. Let's take comfort in knowing He sees, He hears, and He WILL have the final say.
Our hope is in His understanding…hold on to that today—it's much lighter than the load of anger and vengeance!
So parallel to my world this morning! Thank you for getting me back on track!
