ETC 647 Reflection/Group 6Quick start to this semester here on the NAU campus. Between my staff responsibilities, adjunct Faculty for 2 classes and Graduate studies, there is not time for much of anything else. My passion for Scouting is being pushed in the rear spot light for now.
647 is a challenging course because of the exposure to new and different Web 2.0 tools. The simulation for many social networking tools are proving to be time consuming. Although it is a labor of love, I can truly say navigation of the applications is intense. Sometimes I feel hours have slipped away during a study session and no progress is shown for it. management is the key. iGoogle is the only way to use what is required to make sense of all the content.
Group rolls are forming. I must say I have had nothing but great experiences in my group situations in the ETC program. Lucky, maybe but I look forward to working in groups because of the interaction learning environment. I see this class as being no different. Personalities are flowing and leadership rolls are forming.
Connectivisim is our focus point in lesson 2 in order to being web 2.0 tools into context. Relating these tools to the concept is not an easy task for me. I find myself constantly focusing on what the tools do in-order to support student centered learning and how self motivation is a factor for the tool. It is this exploration of the concept that will decide if it will make a foot hold as a legitimate social theory. I suspect this to be true to any new and emerging theories.
