Hello! I know...it's been too long but last year doing two subjects 501 and 503 I just never bothered with updating my blog...too busy completing those subjects. But I'm back now with ETL 504 and it's been lovely re reading my posts and thoughts from almost two years ago. I've come a long way since the beginning of the MEd in TL...and boy I have a longer way to go to becoming a gulp....Leader!
Readings for 504 have been great so far but I am especially enjoying the "watch clips". Don Tapscott was so amazing with his Open World concept. I loved the 4 Principles of Collaboration, Transparency, Sharing and Empowerment. Though not specifically meant for TLs, these four principles can be applied to any leader in any career. I love the idea of "transparency". In the last 20 months our library has undergone major renovations. It is literally surrounded by windows so everyone can look in and see what I am teaching/learning with the students. I hope that by looking in, teaching and learning are transparent to the viewers...there is no hiding. I hope that the distribution of knowledge, brings power to my students. Tapscott really rocked my world this morning!
