I registered a few days ago for the Education Technology and Media Massive Open Online Course (try to say that quickly) which, as of January 5, had 680 registered participants from all sort of wild places around the globe.

It looks like a promising way to connect with teachers from all over the place who are interested in education and technology It also looks like it may encourage me to be a bit more reflective. For example, it looks like some blogging is part of the process. While I’ve had this blog for several years, I haven’t used it a lot lately. That’s kind of a shame since a blog is a great way to reflect on what you’re doing, what’s going well and what you could change.

I’m looking forward to learning a lot in this course. I’ve already learned that there is a whole category of courses called Massive Open Online Courses (I didn’t know that). If just by registering I learn something, that’s not a bad beginning.
