Now the course came to a close and I had some time to reflect on it. There are so many things that were valuable in the course that I continue to investigate and explore, but there are a couple that I have already started implementing in my …
I admit, I did not exactly know what I was signing up for in this course. The title “Open networked learning” sounded somehow different and useful to prepare me a bit better for online teaching…and it would give me the credit I needed in my teac…
