For suggestion of this course, I would hope that the “emerging marketing analysis” to be reduced by 1~2 weeks, giving more time to exploration of really successful ventures. We could study their early pitches, match their venture plans with their real corporation trails, and discuss the secrets of them to survive through risks and chances. […]

Constructive Suggestions…
It was a pleasure working with you all this term. I really enjoy MET courses as they allow us to learn from each other, work collaboratively and share insights on a variety of topics in our field. As a suggestion for improving participation in future cohorts, I think having a greater opportunity to work with […]

Suggestions for future…
Hello, Great comments so far, lots of suggestions that I agreed with. Not much to add, just that it was difficult to find certain submissions. Though I liked the hyperlinked searchable words at the right-hand margin of the screen for quick reference. As for the assignment descriptions, I would suggest putting at least one sentence […]

Participation Suggestions
I was quite happy to see that this course was not going to be heavily based on postings and comments as my last course had over 6000 submissions and felt overwhelmed by the amount of reading and writing. I did find, however, that each blogging platform used throughout the course had positive and negative characteristics. […]

A few final thoughts and suggestions …
As many of you have noted, this course has been quite a journey or ‘venture’ in itself. I did, however, find that my own participation came in ebbs and flows and fits and starts. After some reflection, I think that the weblog platform and missed opportunities for further engagement could be improved. When it comes […]

Looking back…. and looking forward.
After looking back upon our very fast time together, there were a few things that I can offer as suggested improvements. First of all, the WordPress platform is one that a colleague and I are seriously looking at for future use in the classroom (over other learning environment platforms). The one thing that I struggles […]

In retrospect
Hello, This has been an overall great learning journey . . . I learned much about learning ventures (fictional and real) and felt there were brilliant ventures out there I would love to add to my technological tool box. The highlight of the course, in my opinion, were the OER’s; I really enjoyed viewing, participating and communicating […]

Participation Suggestion
Hi all The summer term is almost at an end. I’m not sure where it went but August 5th is just around the corner. One suggestion I would make to promote greater participation would be to have small cohort groups peer edit and provide feedback on assignments and/or to work through OER activities. This would […]

Thank You & Summary of Week 12 Dear colleagues, thank you all for participating in our OER with such enthusiasm. We initially felt that Week 12, being the last week for everyone to work on assignment # 3, would perhaps mean a little less participation . . . on the contrary – we were pleasantly […]

Good Mind Maps
Hi all, Thanks to this weeks group, I’ve been thinking a lot about what makes a good mind map this week. For me, I think the answer to what makes a good mind map, is that I make it myself. Mind maps are a way of learning, problem solving and exploring ideas. For me, when […]

Adventures in Mind Mapping!
Great job with mind-mapping week 9! Like others, I have not ever really thought of mind-mapping as a teaching tool, but more of an assessment/review tool. Having used VUE many times in the MET program, I have learned that mind-mapping is a very versatile way of giving visual representation to thoughts and processes. And, the […]

Reflections on mind mapping
Thank you for the introduction to this new tool. As I said before I have used concept maps for brainstorming sessions, pre assessment and exit cards. This particular application would be too difficult in my own context however tools such as spiderscribe(online) and kidspiration are student friendly and helpful for grade 3 students. With the […]

Using mind mapping in the classroom
It’s interesting to see such a variety of applications of mind/concept mapping. I have used mind mapping in problem-based learning where learners are presented with a scenario from the workplace and they have to resolve a communication problem. As pointed out in previous posts, mind mapping can be an effective tool to teach and reinforce concepts […]

A big thank you from Week 8!
Hi everyone, Thanks very much for your feedback during our Week 8 presentation. We were very impressed with everyone’s PLEs and added resources (we have stolen/borrowed many of them). There was a lot of insightful input and discussions, which greatly enhanced the experience both for ourselves and hopefully for you, our colleagues. Symbaloo (it’s also […]

Sheza,
Your suggestions for increasing participation in the OERs make a good deal of sense. Many of the groups offered significant content that needed to be reviewed before participation of any value could be made. I found in some cases this took a considerable amount of time leaving me until near the end of the week before I could reply and respond to the comments of others. By allowing a little more time for each might help alleviate some of that pressure.

Hi Sheza and Meggan,
I agree that 3 extra days to deal with each OER would have been very useful. Often, it seemed that just as discussions were warming up, the week was ending. Having two overlapping OERs at any time would be manageable.
