June has arrived and it’s time for some more Professional Development.
When this free, 3 week course appeared on Twitter and Facebook I jumped at the chance to improve my online facilitation skills.
Course Outline
Participants will identify and describe online learning, facilitating online learning, and enabling attitudes to learning, and create student activities on a personal learning environment such as a blog, wiki, Moodle, Blackboard, Edmodo, Canvas, Ning and so on.
Weekly Topics
Week 1: Online Teaching and Enabling Attitudes to Learning
Week 2: Setting Goals and Learning Outcomes
Week 3: Active Learning and Developing Artefacts
A Special Thanks to the Course Facilitators Dr. Nellie Deutsch, Dr. Ludmila Smirnova, Judith Behrens and Diethild Starkmeth for offering this upcoming professional development opportunity.
Hello Penny,
I am glad you too the course and glad I too the course too. I am looking forward to continuing learning with you in my PLN.

Hi Ellen, the course was really interesting and I’m glad to have done it. One of the best things was to have talked to so many international educators and to share ideas about our teaching and learning. Where are you from Ellen and are you a blogger?
WOW, Penny, this looks fantastic…wish I was in the right headspace and time to be able to participate too. I will follow your journey with interest.
Hi AJ, it was fun completing this course…so glad I did it. I believe Nellie Deutsch is often running courses, so keep an eye out for her on twitter or facebook and maybe have a go when you have the time.
