Helen's EDC blog

It’s like an ‘Only Connect’ wall…

I visited others’ blogs again this week but had no reciprocal visits. Our ‘mobility’ between blogs has, in my experience, been limited; a core group of us have used Twitter as our ‘homing’ space (Brah, 1996; Fortier, 2000). That is where we ‘reground’ (Ahmed et al 2003). Eli established a Facebook group at the start of this EDC, but that has remained underused. I’ll be interested to see what others think:

Why have we used Twitter more than other comms on this course? Just my perspective? Have you spent time 'in' others' lifestreams? #mscedc

I agree with Stuart, Chenée: this is a great use of Sway (an Office 365 tool ;-)).

This is really thoughtful reflection on your experiences in each of the two courses. I’m wondering how much of this difference can be attributed to the relative scale of the two courses? Were you able to gain any sense of participant numbers for each of them.

Thanks for sharing your work!

I’d forgotten about Thinglink. A great tool and perfect for this.

This is a really thought-provoking artefact Chenée. I particularly like the question you pose about whether cyborgs can transcend the binaries (a brilliant image to illustrate that too!)

A brilliant video Chenee and a really interesting area to consider: how we can use technologies to enhance the image of ourselves which we present. One much-discussed element of this is, I guess, how our social media self is a product – often a much improved and ‘enhanced’ version of our RL self.

I’m so pleased that you unpicked and questioned many of the meaningless slogans which surrounded us at BETT: TEL presumptions defined much of what was offered and the discourse around it.
