I have finished ETEC 500. My research proposal is complete and has been submitted for marking. A copy of my proposal can be accessed through the link on my research journal page.

This has been a challenging course. There was a ton of information to read and digest. But I must admit that I am feeling much more like a grad student than I did at the beginning of the course. I feel pretty solid in the work I want to undertake and fairly confident in my ability to turn my ideas into something workable. I feel like I have more in common and a better understanding of other researchers in educational technology. I wonder if there is a secret handshake or if I have to wait until graduation from MET for this initiation?

My next course is ETEC 512 – Application of Learning Theory to the Analysis of Instructional Settings. It starts May 13 so I have a month to get acquainted with my family. We spent the day gardening; what a delight!
