It is what society does now.. we are nothing but predictable and if not predictable we will be taught to become that which is required to be as one.

 

Now what did you have for breakfast!!

Iam not much of a blogger , in fact this is my first ! I am not sure why it matters what I think of this blog. OK there I blogged

aaawwww....c'mon gang...this is how we're supposed to duplicate the in-classroom discussion of a "normal" education-- by being required to participate in our online "room"

doesn't this feel like your education is better now?

in order to stay within the spirit, I will say that this class was a touch repetetive from some of the others, so I guess that means some of this stuff must be sinking in!

As an older educator, I was initially dragged kicking and screaming into the world of social learning and upscale technology, but now I see it as a most viable way of communicating and certainly connecting with students and colleagues. Even if I didn't agree, current forms of communication will still continue and even evolve. 

Regarding the necessity of blogging, actually participating in The Lounge is not a requirement for completion of an online continuing education course. That being said, I have been encouraged by the many blogs of learning interests, comments and practices that have been announced and discussed and hope that we, as educators, can use each means available to connect with each other, share our ideas and further the learning community in our sometimes challenging sector of higher education and training.

A little annoyed that I *have* to do this. I just don't feel like I have enough time to blog and read through all the responses to pull anything useful out of them

Very interesting and helpful to me as a new instructor
