#ETMOOC Intro

etmooc, educational technology and media mooc

 

     It took some peer pressure but I have decided to take the plunge and participate in #ETMOOC, a massive open online course on Educational Technology & Media. Here is the description provided on the course webpage,

     #etmooc is a ‘Connectivist’ MOOC (‘cMOOC) this is designed around a
     few key principles:
     – The course is developed with a weak ‘centre’. While etmooc-org will provide
     a level of aggregation, detail, and dirction, the majority of interactions are likely
     to occur within groups & networks, facilitated through various online spaces &
     services.
     – Participants are strongly encouraged to develop their own reflective, learning
     spaces. We’re hoping that every learner in #etmooc creates and maintains their
     own blog for continuous reflection, creativity, and resource sharing.
     – Sharing and networking participation are essential for the success of all learners
     in #etmooc. Thus, we’ll be needing you to share your knowledge, to support and
     encourage others, and to participate in meaningful conversations.
     When participating in #ETMOOC activities I will tag my posts “#ETMOOC” as well as include the screenshot above to make the posts more visible to readers who may be visiting from the #ETMOOC community.
     Our first project is to share an intro of ourselves, so here it goes! I’ve created a SlideShare presentation based off of ones I learned how to create during a recent PD session with Darren Kuropatwa & Andy McKiel.

  1. Hi, just go on blogging and read blogs of other #etmooc-ers. comment on their blogs. Share your ideas about the thinking of other people in your blog and twitter your blog title.
    I like the way you use video to introduce yourself. Are you going to use video in your lessons? What technology do you use in whole brain education?

I'd love to hear your thoughts; please leave a comment!
