Hello everyone!
I am a 25-year-old from Akron Ohio. I am an educator at an online high school in my state and teach High School English. My major reason for taking this course is to expand my experience and knowledge of online learning. I am pursuing a degree in Instructional Technology from Kent State and find this dawning age of information to be fascinating.
My reflections on this course and other topics appear on my blog : http://oefn.wordpress.com/
In order for this class to be a success I'll need to have gleaned some new perspectives on the topics covered and sharpened my perspectives on some of the things I've already explored. I've been exploring this area of study for some time now and am largely in the exploratory phase of learning. Basically, if I walk away with some new ideas I'll be more than happy.
