ONL day 1 – commencement of a journey

Posted on by Jacqueline Hoppenreijs

What do I think after the first meeting in this course? Hm. First and foremost that we’re a nice and diverse bunch of people with everyone seemingly eager to learn from each other. That’s a good start! Additionally, that it’s going to be useful to be open-minded and that it’s more than ok to be […]

… the end of journey… or just the first step This was the last week of the ONL221 course. This week we reflected about what this course was about, what we learn, the experiences that we shared and the tools that we will bring to our future practice. Personally, I believe that this course was […]

Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning

Posted on by Ares Gomez
