1.       1 Activity 1: Web 2 and the eLearning with the iLE@RN Model	14/11/13	The iLe@rn model It is important that we all have a common understanding about e-Learning –computers are not the focus of e-learning; it is about engaging students and teachers in learning – it is about evolving the learning process and examining emerging practices. At the core of e-learning is the ability to learn anything anytime, anywhere. It is our role as educators to provide structures to develop reflective, responsible learners. What a powerful video, with a very strong message!! We have a role to teach students the skills they need to use Web 2.0 tools effectively BEFORE they use the tools, and we have a role in enabling the tools to assist in the joint construction of new learning.

2.       2 Activity 2: Web 2.0 and Bloom's Revised Digital Taxonomy	14/11/13	I can copy the image but not download the diagram:  I like the verbs, though so here is a link to them. I would certainly find them helpful in planning curriculum so I want to keep them close J
3.       3 Activity 3: Create a final course reflection blog post		The research resources are part of the Sydney CEO so I don’t have access – there appears to be quite a bit of information that is as relevant in CEOM as anywhere else.
4.       4 Activity 4: Course Survey		DONE!!
5.       5 Activity 5: Submit your Final Course Reflection		When I started this course on 13th August I thought I knew a bit about Web 2.0 – and yes, I did know a bit, but I could never have dreamt about how much I would learn. This course has taught me so much I can use not only in my Professional life but also my personal life. It has made me rethink some of the tools I like to use, examine my own digital footprint and reflect on how I might improve my use of Web 2.0 tools to benefit schools and students. I am very glad I undertook the course and will recommend it to all the people I work with. During module 7 I visited Daniel Avano's blog: http://danielsedublog.blogspot.com.au and made a comment at the end of module 7 - more because I wanted to communicate with him about some students at school undertaking his Scienceworks tasks than for any other reason :-) My own blog, http://sue-os-blog.blogspot.com.au/ is where I have all my module reflections. I also set up a google doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jpBY_s412SNTZf5sGllit0ZBMWNz3SsRDuJYhafI0rg/edit?usp=sharing This has been fun!! Thank you!!
