Might this be the One? The MOOC I stay with? I signed up for Dave Cormier’s P2PU Course on Rhizomatic Learning because… well because I like Dave, and what he brings to a thing like this. And of course it is going to be loosely unstructured, in the most Cormier like way. For week 1 […]
The Headless ds106 experiment we set up August-December 2013 had many successful points. Most was in the new influx of active participants, but the ending group project (not planned) was in terms of rich collaboration one of my peak ds106 experiences.

Oops, I managed to write this and did not publish. And I say I never save drafts when blogging. Never say Mever! It’s been a while since I added anything new to my True Stories of Openness site. The stuff happens all the time (and not just to me), but lacking some event where I […]
