Unworkshop2-my blog


The last assignment – changed

Jay has a plan and wishes – but those „stupid“ students act differently…. ;-)

The last assignment was difficult – so a conversation with another „unworkshopper“ would have been undispensable – but I didn’t meet anybody. When most of the others start to work I am tired of many hours  at the computer (given the computer and my internet connection work…)

So I was going through the topics we covered during the last month – I learned quite something and got an awful lot of interesting resources (for at least another month) and I proudly present my delicious account containing nearly 30 reviewed links (most of them added today).

So this is what I did today. Something but not the planned asignment.

It is obviously too much to „digest“ and the time for the assignments is too short – especially with the different time zones.

Anyway it was an inspiring and interesting workshop and I would like to stay in touch and be allowed to address others when in the coming months….

Regards and thanks to all

Hurray – finally I found the search box – it is in the upper right corner – partly hidden! That helps when searching something that yesterday was on that page but today??? ;-)

To remember – ask Harold to give me hints to the other survey software besides the one Jay used www.surveyshare.com.

In one of the previous sessions Jay stated that Harold knows another recording software – easier affordable than Breeze

Find here a wiki with a nice overview on materials  for administrative staff in schools. Should add this to my trainer blog/German.

Reflections about PKM – second

Gespeichert unter: SSW&Companies, reflections

I've just realized that I – once again – wrote the links that I want to remember into this blog and I did not use either deli.cio.us or bloglines – following the German saying "Der Mensch ist ein Gewohnheitstier" – the human being creature of habit.

To become well organized – one needs visions ;-) – you should have a PKM policy.

Where to collect what – all Unworkshop stuff should be collected in this blog and links to deli.cio.us and others should be routed from here. Hugh – the voice of the wise woman – has spoken;-)

Skyping about communities

On Friday I wanted to talk about communities with "somebody".

I looked through my group – 2 persons do not have a profile filed – so I did not know how to get in contact with – 2 others haven't answered my request to be added to Skype … so things became somehow difficult – but Harold helped :-)

He sent messages to those online and so I managed to talk to Marilyn – the artist – she promised after having brought all her internet stuff in order again (Friday was the first day of being connected – after the storm) to provide some more drawings about our Unworkshop lives.

Both Marilyn and I we liked the Unworkshop quite a lot and would love to join a further community. Marily raised the idea of having a reunion lets say 6 month from now where everybody gives insight about what he/she has done with the Unworkshop knowledge.

Moreover I learnt about the Texas way of live with horses and chuckwagons and HR congresses.
