I looked at this course in previous years and even followed some of the discussions for a very brief time. However, now that I’m enrolled and am participating for me the timing couldn’t be better.
I’m so intrigued with the whole idea of the delivery not being on anyone platform. That the concepts or topics for each week are “broadcasted” to the world and that those that are participating in the discussion are “broadcasting” back to anyone who wants to look in on what is generated.
I’m excited that (and this is one rare day for me) that I read today’s material on my phone while on the subway. I’m posting my thoughts regarding the intro to the course on MY own blog. One that I’ve had for a few years. However, the best part or fun for me is that I’m able to respond and do the participating on my mobile.
I can read the material, watch videos, search chats and respond like this (by email) direct to my blog.
I’ve done lots of surfing on my phone, but to have a real purpose to search for more than the next movie time is exciting.
Am I a techno-nerd? My family and friends would say yes. Am I a learning-nerd? Again yes. I thrive learning more of anything. [ I think if I could have a show on the Discovery Channel it would have to Daily Planet because they cover the most topics. ]
So, back on topic. I’m really excited about the modalities I’m going to be able to explore this course through and with the incredible number of incredible minds I’m going to connect with.
