OPENNESS and SUPPORT The second lap of our ONL journey has got us thinking more about what it means to be open, and whether we can really keep our private and professional lives separate. In my fantastic PBL group Take V, I think we have managed to establish an atmosphere of trust so that […]
A Reflection on Open Educational Resources: A Hunt for Quality amidst the Easter Bounty
Easter brings a delightful mix of traditions – the sweet aroma of hot cross buns, the hunt for hidden chocolate eggs and bunnies, and for some, the savoury indulgence of curried fish. This season also offers a chance to reflect on the concept of “openness” and the treasures it holds, much like the hidden treats […]

The learning […]
How did I get here?!
I’m attending the ONL 241 course which is very challenging as I don’t have much available time (as many other people). But I’m finding it very interesting and useful!
