Dan's just back from an annual family pilgrimage to Cape Ann on the Massachusetts coast, where spending time with his four-year old grandson means roaming outdoors, digging in the garden, sleeping under the stars, and swimming. Maybe that's why Dan decided this week's topic would be suggestions for swimming in the ocean of online learning.
Many faculty, especially those of us who trained in the previous century, have never taken an online course. But it’s never too late to learn to swim, and this summer might be just the time to enroll in an online course as a learner. Dan is thinking about brushing up on his college Italian, or maybe learning how to actually use the expensive digital SLR camera he bought after deciding it was time to transition from film.
Regardless of what you'd like to learn, there are plenty of options available for exploring your subject-of-interest, and since becoming an online learner will help you become a better online teacher, you get to call it work while also having some fun!
