Really? | Learning New Steps

https://sheena4rru.wordpress.com/2010/08/03/really

August 3, 2010 at 9:52 pm ( Reflections on Learning. Ok, I’m responsible. Early last week, I nay have been overheard expressing curiousity about laughter yoga. Now I know😉. 8:30 yoga followed by …. finishing with 4 1/2 hours of case study presentation prep. Then home to blog! So, typos and all, I’m off to bed wishing my chort sound and restful sleep free from learning theory or research terms. Just think, only 2 more days of academic boot-camp and then it’s a piece of cake right? While I blatantly led o...

But am proud that I was able to attend all by one of the synchronous Elluminate sessions where I was a quiet participant more than a lurker😉, I engaged with 50% or more of the recommended resources for each topic; I also joined the CCK11 FaceBook group and posted occasionally. My first experiences in a MOOC. My final ass...

New Directions | Learning New Steps

https://sheena4rru.wordpress.com/2011/05/13/new-directions

May 13, 2011 at 8:37 am ( Pondering. With little inclination to continue working on the myriad projects before me, I’ve decided to purge… I mean write. My life is chaotic; it’s great, but requiring much concentration to keep everything straight and to maintain motivation. I’ve been feeling exhilarated, satisfied, challenged, inspired, appreciated … terrified, embarrassed, isolated, frustrated and challenged. Nearly six weeks ago, I committed to being an “Active Participant” in mobiMOOC. What I hadn&#8217...

August 1, 2010 at 10:02 am ( Reflections on Learning. Leaving the house, arms laden with 2 clumsy bags and a cup of coffee. Calmreally? Bags settled in the trunk. I move to sit but pause to wonder “What the h@ll? 8221; After a few long minutes of rubbing away the oozy splatters on my new ‘first day of school skirt’ I realized that I had been pooped on. No time to change, grin and go. Good luck right? 8220;You will learn a lot! Of my teaching classroom is eye-opening. For the first time, that I can re...

Introduction Relfection | Learning New Steps

https://sheena4rru.wordpress.com/2010/07/17/introduction-relfection

July 17, 2010 at 1:37 pm ( Reflections on Learning. When Bill Muirhead asked us to reflect on the experience of constructing introductions to our cohort. I was intrigued by the idea of the “Impostor Syndrome” and very quickly remembered the bouncy, blonde, aerobics instructor that I invented in 1997 for sole purpose of meeting new people online.

My idea is not an entirely original one and I look forward to engaging in conversations. And exploring opportunities to build connections and collaborate with my fellow … Moocsters?
