A Course By Nellie Deutsch

Description: Connecting Online : Sharing life experiences

Web 2.0 is facilitating change. Some of these changes are the way people connect, reach out, and stay connected with others. Whether you are in business, teaching, development, research, or just want to experiment, you can have your own space in the web. We all have things worth sharing, experiences, stories, anecdotes which can enlighten or brighten up other peoples’ lives, things that can be useful to others. This is the spirit which moves Connecting Online …. connecting, sharing, reaching out… sharing what you know, what you would like to know, and how you use technology for personal and professional reasons. How will we do this? Through CO09 Ning space, you can post in a personal blog, upload material to share, get in touch with other members, ask questions, get help …. and whatever else you can think of… remember the main goal of Connecting Online is to connect in order to share!

Everything you want to know about web 2.0 tools may be available on the Internet, but how do you locate and evaluate them. Participants will discuss the use of web 2.0 tools for instruction and learning. The sessions will be held at LearnHub, at Exploring New Domains via Moodle, and on Connecting Online 2009 ning community.

Updates: Regular live online sessions on WiZiQ. Check for the WiZiQ icon on the left hand side of the page on Exploring New Domains.

Layout of the course: The course will focus on web 2.0 tools for instruction and learning and ways of sharing information. Participants will engage in asynchronous and synchronous discussions on personal and professional experiences with web 2.0 tools.

Live Conferences: Ongoing live online meetings and synchronous discussions will be scheduled throughout the course.

Preparation: I suggest you learn as much as you can about web 2.0 tools before the course begins. You may wish to add your own resources. Please feel free to ask questions, add comments and/or make suggestions at your convenience.

Presenters: Please contact me if you would like to present on the WiZiQ sessions.

I am looking forward to an exciting course.

To begin: Please introduce yourself.
