The Journey Begins

It’s been in my mind for quite some time to create a website, having navigated the choppy waters of Twitter and the high seas of YouTube with some success.

Digital Knowledge MOOC

This week I registered for an open, online class called 23 Things for Digital Knowledge offered out of the University of Edinburgh. I’m currently planning out my own digital literacy course for next summer, so I signed up mostly to see what they’ve focused on and how they tie it all together. For my own […]
