Comments on: Week 10: Full circle. http://edc11.education.ed.ac.uk/carolc/2011/11/28/week-10-full-circle/ part of the MSc in E-learning at the University of Edinburgh Sun, 11 Dec 2011 11:08:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: Carol Jane Collins http://edc11.education.ed.ac.uk/carolc/2011/11/28/week-10-full-circle/#comment-128 Carol Jane Collins Sun, 11 Dec 2011 11:08:07 +0000 http://edc11.education.ed.ac.uk/carolc/?p=10422#comment-128 Thanks Daniel. Yes, the idea of an everlasting memory of what you read/look at but also an often random wandering that turns out to have a pattern is really interest, and posthuman, I think. I intend to keep a lifestream going and include anything for the next module and also stuff related to my work. But first, I have to get this sorted and submitted today and then get on with the essay. Good luck to you too! Thanks Daniel.

Edupunk looks awesome, I will definitely be digging deeper there, thanks. I'd agree with you that the connections become more apparent over time. I've notice in my own lifestream that even avenues which seemed to be dead ends at first, became paths to new ideas later on. It's interesting to think what this everlasting memory and constant recording might mean for education and especially for research. Great choice of topic too! Best of luck with it!

I always want to write longer pieces!. I've written a little about the nature of the lifestream and structure in this weeks blog and would be interested to see what you think? Good luck with your assignment too and if you want any feedback on ideas then just post or tweet me! Hi Grace

There is definitely a strong political element running through the readings. Not surprising really, the ramifications of messing up are a long term problem. This is such a good topic to get your teeth into. You're problem will be in what to leave out! I hadn't heard of newwayofinteraction, must check it out. But not just yet, I still haven't decided on my topic. I agree with you about the structure of the course, connectivity is often only obvious in retrospect. Thought I'd drop a quick response before heading off to work I hope this helps. Good luck with your assignment. :) Hi Carol,
