• To make time for the course.
• To understand how to generate a fluid learning experience.
• Practice working in groups online.
• To better understand how you can work to a goal as you define the goal.
• To purposefully connect with others and making sure I make time and space to make those connections visible through linking to my blog and posting things on Twitter.
• To understand how to better communicate the processes and benefits of working in online communities to those who have limited technical skills

My first frustration is that I can’t see the webcast of the first meeting.  Hopefully the video file comes up soon so I can get a sense of the discussion so far.

In trying to get my head around this I think the first step for me is to figure out the parameters of the course.  To me one way of establishing this is through the main portals of information.

• Netvibes
• Pageflakes
• Course Wiki
• Course Blog

I’m really keen to complete the facilitating an online event and hopefully I can do this with the community I work within using me.edu.au.

I am also completing the Connectivism course, hopefully the two courses have slightly different approaches.  I’m sure I’ll take away different things from connecting with different educators.
