I decided late last week that everyone needed a little more time to put everything they learned so far together. People needed time to learn some of the basics of Scan-Focus-Act, time to absorb what they learned about their personal brand, and they needed time to get to closure on what passion they wanted to blog about.
Looking at the survey from the beginning of the course, I decided to move Participatory Media and Wiki more toward the end of the course. It will mean a more readings in November, but I think it will be worth it.
Even before this change still behind on the wrapping up details of the course plan — I'm trying to match the needs of the students and it has been hard to get ahead. I hope that if I'm asked to repeat next year that it will come together easier next time.
I am pleased with the Personal Learning Journals of my students — many insightful thoughts there, even among those who don't think they are ready to blog yet.
