’ Even better would be something like: ’Thanks for your RTs and for discussion of Twitter etiquette during #learningevent’ I also send group thank you messages to people who retweeted me once or twice. There’s no right or wrong way to do this, but doing something is just good manners.

Although it’s not mentioned at all in Johnston’s article, I kept thinking about skeuomorphism and its relation to this discussion. Skeuomorphism: visual metaphor. Of course, that’ll be because I just read a couple of posts about it recently (it wasn’t a word I knew at all 18 months ago!). But I think it is relevant.

More challenging but also potentially very interesting would be to engage in conversation with people in different sessions, if there are links to be made between the topics, speakers or discussions. Don’t delete anything!

Mapping the two against one another and identifying any significant disparaties can, Pad says, help to get to the root of performance issues and I guess lead to constructive discussions about strengths, weaknesses and development actions. Creating the ideal archetype profile for a particular role and using this during the recruitment process.

Mainliy the activities are self directed through reading, tests, homework assignments, and discussion boards. I decided to do this because I realized a lot of training and education is going more technical. As an online instructor, I have never developed interactive lessons.

This could be through an active discussion board of peers, or an individual media application that can be manipulated with different choices (I’m thinking specifically of the flash programs for my students that allows them to manipulate variables in ‘experiments’ online then post their results to our class forum).

There’s been a lot of debate on Twitter and elsewhere about the merits of this course – the organisation, the language used, the subjects up for discussion. I did this partly out of curiosity about MOOCs generally and partly because this particular course sounded like it might be interesting.

The conspicuous lack of PowerPoint (replaced by photos, videos or diagrams at key points) and the informal set-up with armchairs instead of a lectern encouraged an atmosphere of conversation and discussion.

It’s a real person, you’re hearing a real voice, you’re talking in real time – and yet it doesn’t feel ‘real’ They’re reading from a script, or the discussion is driven by the boxes they need to fill in on their computer system.

It’s what prompted my last post , and it’s also prompted some very honest discussions that I’ve veered away from in the past. And once the first few brave people shared their back garden stories, everyone else started doing the same.
