In the spirit of the #F5F #clmooc tradition. I want to give some shout-outs that reflect my experiences during my first week of the Connected Learning MOOC. I am providing author names, links, and the content they posted that spoke to me this week.
1. Susan Watson – “Somebody better give us an assignment….”
Susan’s Included Meme
This was a great way to start #clmooc since I lurked for part of #Rhizo15 and had Rhizomatic Learning in mind for this course.
2. Michael Flichbaugh – “This video introduces me via t-shirt.”
What a great #untro to kick off the week for me! I was inspired by the variety of ideas that circulated in the Google+ Community and Twitter.
3. Laura Gibbs – “a smashing un-intro….”
Laura Gibbs completes the puzzle she made of me!
What does it say about you when you are smashed into pieces by a coworker? I don’t have an answer for that questions. Instead, I want to say that this post by Laura quickly pulled me into conversations and made me feel included in the #clmooc community. So, thank you Laura!
4. Make With Me #1 Participants – Unmaking an Introduction
Bringing together the participants of #clmooc was a great way to propagate more ideas. I loved hearing feedback and reactions to content that had been posted during the week. These perspectives were valuable to me understanding the nature of #clmooc as a first time participant.
5. Steph West-Puckett – “How I roll w/ #untros in my college comp classroom.”
Steph West-Puckett’s English 1100 Class Website
I was excited to be provided with an example of how a Make Cycle idea makes its way into the classroom. This reminded me how participating in #clmooc is great for sparking new ideas and procuring creativity in education and beyond.
I look forward to see what’s in store next week!
