Week 10 Summary
Much of week 10 was been spent understanding the first half of this block. By moving onto pedagogy I have found some clarity on the previous readings and been able to construct a blog for the posthuman/cyborg readings. After spending considerable time on Prezi and Slides/U-Tube presentations in previous weeks I decided a blog (with hyperlinks) would be appropriate for presenting my pedagogy within the timeframe. I was happy with the outcome and have received useful and interest comments. This has been one of my more enjoyable sections of work as I realise I have a particular interest in pedagogy and inherently find myself looking at e-learning as a method with which to become more familiar…something I am reading around in view of the final assignment.
Now at week 11, I am more comfortable with the format of the course and find myself not needing to make such a conscious effort to use blogs and the likes of delicious and StumbleUpon as they have become part of my routine when looking for wider reading and storing artefacts. My newly acquired familiarity with such sites has most probably contributed to taking some of the ‘stressful effort’ out of studying and allowed me to consider the content in more depth. I have even started using these sites for other courses and browsing personal interests. With the little remaining time left to the structured part of this course I hope to use Holyrood Park Hub some more as this is an area that I can see will help me develop ideas for the assignment AND become more comfortable with sharing ideas in a virtual community.
