Once again this year I’ve informally enrolled in two open online courses – Connectivism and Connective Knowledge ‘09 (CCK09), and Social Media and Open Education (ECI831). Having done this I’ve begun to see a number of people posting clips to YouTube in which they introduce themselves and share a little bit about their professional background, personal learning objectives, and what they hope to get out of the course. I think this is a really great idea, so I thought I’d throw my hat into the ring.

Having said all this, I must admit I’m off to a terrible start engaging in both of these courses – though not due to lack of interest I assure you, I’m just running around like a headless chicken at the moment and need to carve out some time to come up for air and re-prioritise my focus to leave room for both courses. I’ll try to get to that this week.
