Every waking minute seemed to be filled with thoughts of ETMOOC earlier this week and then real life descended and I had exam scripts to correct. So I managed to catch the Twitter webinar but missed the blogging one. I see there is one on the calendar for next week so hope to catch up then. What my work on an introduction video this week did result in though was a request for a training session.FROM MY SON (age 11). He so enjoyed watching me use Goanimate to introduce myself that he promptly decided he wanted to use for his school project on Russia. Two quality hours of laughing and learning with my son – the MOOC is already paying dividends…

I suppose I had two real aims in starting the MOOC – with limited time due to working and studying for a Masters, I was looking for good content and good contacts. Even if I now just dip in and out of particular topics I feel ETMOOC will serve these aims and with my better understanding of the cMOOC, I won’t feel the pressure to join in with everything and still know it’s OK! It’s just that real life sometimes gets in the way of total immersion….but that’s ok….
