edumooc: MOOC - Big Numbers / Small Victories
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/06/mooc-big-numbers-small-victories.html
Thursday, June 23, 2011. MOOC - Big Numbers / Small Victories. A successful day. Much accomplished. Current count exceeds 1,800. We needed to find a resource to help our participants understand Google Groups. I hadn't been able to find anything in YouTube or text. I asked Jason Rhode of NIU to check around. Instead, he created a custom video tutorial just for our users. Wonderful! June 24, 2011 at 7:08 PM. Thank you for sharing your logbook. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

edumooc: Treats, Tweets, and Tweaks
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/07/treats-tweets-and-tweaks.html
Friday, July 1, 2011. Treats, Tweets, and Tweaks. What a treat it was to have a conversation with my good friends Bruce Chaloux, Bob Hansen and Witt Salley. Yesterday was the first live panel discussion - we are holding them every Thursday in eduMOOC - and it was fun to pull together good people from different parts of my profession. The recording is available online: http:/ goo.gl/CzfLO. On the one hand, that would help assure that we get only tweets associated with the panel for the event (not having g...

edumooc: A Step Ahead (or perhaps just ketchup)
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/07/step-ahead-or-perhaps-just-ketchup.html
Wednesday, July 6, 2011. A Step Ahead (or perhaps just ketchup). As has been well-documented, we entered this 'moocventure' a bit naively and with only three weeks of preparation. I certainly take the blame for that. But, like my lifelong favorite baseball team - the Chicago Cubs - struggling from behind and valiantly trying to catch up is something I am very used to. And, that's the story of the past two days. And keep the salads fresh for your browsing pleasure. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

edumooc: Wikis and Wood Ticks
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/06/wikis-and-wood-ticks.html
Saturday, June 25, 2011. Wikis and Wood Ticks. I am concerned about making it as easy as possible for participants to create study groups, and to connect through social networking such as blogs and Twitter. We have made some progress this week, but it still is nagging at me. Our registrations now stand at 2,105 - the latest ones from Pakistan, Spain, Australia, Canada, Brazil, Ireland and the US. Amazing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Ray's 5 Daily Blogs!

edumooc: In the Slipstream
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/06/in-slipstream.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. Em will trim up the recording tonight, and we will have it posted by morning. Thank you, yet again, Emily. I am really excited about the lineup to follow. We have top-notch panelists. I had hoped to have Seb Schmoller on today's panel (director of ALT in the UK), but he will join us for the look ahead at the future of online learning in August. That's going to be a great session with Cable Green, Curt Bonk, Bruce Chaloux, and Seb. July 2, 2011 at 1:24 PM. View my complete profile.

edumooc: Ponderously pondering, again
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/07/ponderously-pondering-again.html
Monday, July 4, 2011. Ponderously pondering, again. For me, this holiday means fewer calls and fewer emails, allowing more time to again reflect on what we are doing and why. Two research teams are forming - one organized in New Zealand ( http:/ wikieducator.org/OER university/eduMOOC planning group. The other organized in Canada( http:/ www.elearnspace.org/blog/2011/07/04/researching-open-online-courses/. Perhaps it is the topic. Perhaps it is the time. Perhaps we have come to a point where peop...Peopl...

edumooc: Anticipation
http://edumooc.blogspot.com/2011/07/anticipation.html
Saturday, July 2, 2011. In the coming week eduMOOC puts a spotlight on research. What do we know about learning facilitated, enabled, promoted, provided, delivered,(you get the idea) through the Internet? Or, the virtual personal learning bell? So, it is with great anticipation that I await our readings, discussions and panel on research questions. It is research that identifies best practices, that uncovers new possibilities, that opens the minds of people to the potential of online learning. Karen Swan...
