I will be participating in something called “Etmooc” (Educational Technology Massive Open Online Course) as part of EDCI 515.   Until a week ago I had no idea what a MOOC was,  had never heard the term, so I’ve been exploring the Etmooc site to familiarize myself with its premise, purpose, and protocols.  I like the tone of the tutorials – very inclusive and welcoming – even for a techno-neophyte like me.  I am looking forward to this new experience, and to exploring the concept of “connectivism” as a learning theory for the digital age.
