Semester 3 has already started, and there are already many introductory postings from fellow students in webct. It's nice to see some familar names too, including Birgit & Perdita (the 3 of us changed our course enrolments to stay with the same tutor, Peter Evans). One of the first tasks for the course is to become familar with the knowledgeGarden environment - not a problem for the three of us as we used it last semester - but we musn't become complacent either. I've updated my user page and now need to think about pages I could facilitate - have a few ideas but need to check through the wiki titles to make sure I am not 'reinventing the wheel'. Also need to print off the course readings and make a start on them. Andy has already contributed a discussion thread so some serious catch up is needed!
I'm really looking forward to this course and so pleased to be working in a constructive, supportive and friendly environment. I can't imagine any face to face course being as rewarding as the online community we have helped to create.
This blog will take a more serious turn than previously - I'll still post the occasional photo, but these musings will hopefully provide a basis for composing the end of course hand in (assignment 1). However, we're off on a 2 night walking holiday next Friday so might have some nice photos of the English countryside to post here later on.
PS Saw Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah band in concert in Edinburgh last Monday, with Adrian Edmonson and Phil Jupitus - they were EXCELLENT! Very funny and good music too.
