Thing 21: Online Games and Learning
I’ve been in to the National Museum of Scotland’s games and the Nobel Prize games. The NMS was interesting I played the what primate are you and it said I was a Granny Betty, an outgoing orangutan.

Thing 20: Professional Social Networks (LinkedIn/Academia.edu/ResearchGate)
LinkedIn is definitely a platform that could help my professional career. Whereas Academia.edu/ResearchGate are not something I would consider unless I became an academic.

Yes, they are. Every one of the 10 results “confirms” that they are, including the top one, from […]
