MOOC is a Massive Open Online Course.
I don’t need to explain and retell what MOOC is exactly because Dave Cormier has done it in a perfect way, so I am just uploading the YouTube videos.

Let’s Mooc again
My second Moocing attempt is not starting well… I was away for the first week, and am now faced with an ocean of material to swim/waddle through. I am interested, though, first in the topic of openness, and the link to lifelong learning, but also in what goes on in a Mooc; my own reaction has been similar for the previous Mooc I attempted – the spaces are what I find challenging; how do I create my own space, in my own time (learning chronotope, my old friend…), or is a Mooc not about individual time and space, but about the hive-like swarm?…

#ETMOOC una mappa per la cittadinanza digitale
Esamino l’ultimo argomento di #ETMOOC: Topic #5: Digital Citizenship – Identity, Footprint, & Social Activism, focalizzandomi, in questa fase, sulla cittadinanza digitale, presentando una mappa realizzata con Visual Understanding Environment (VUE), un progetto Open Source basato presso la Tufts University e successivamente xxx
Sono spinta verso questa direzione da un duplice obiettivo: a) ottenere una visione generale dell’argomento, b) esercitarmi nell’uso del software VUE.…
