#ETMOOC Intro

 

     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.
