ONL-inspiration

We are now a few weeks into the course and I can summarize my experience so far with one word: inspiring.
- Meeting colleagues from various universities who share a common interest in learning more about ONL opens up for new perspectives on various issues, inspiring new thoughts/questions.
- Being exposed to new tools and getting the chance of testing them makes me realize the need to continuously keep up with development. At times, this insight is also somewhat exhausting but, on the whole, it gives satisfaction when I can master new tools and understand why/when/how to use them.
- The webinar I attended was inspiring in the sense that it gave me food for thought with regard to ways of exploring our practices in digital landscapes/environments. Enlightning and thought-provoking.

I like playing with words and acronyms so INSPIRING can stand for several experiences from the ONL-course so far:
Informative
Nurturing
Surprising
Professional development
Instant learning
Re-thinking
Inclusive
Networking
Great

    I like your acronym. I enjoy acronyms, but I am not good in designing them! :-)

Pathways for networked collaborative learning

Pathways for network collaborative learning is the title we chose for the pictogram that my PBL-group (Group 7) produced as the outcome for Topic 3: Learning in communities - networked collaborative learning. During this topic, our group really walked the talk! We had an interesting discussion about the topic in general, highlighting its complexity and the many perspectives that can be considered. We used the 🐟-document to document our ideas about various foci-areas and things to explore. We worked on the fish document while everybody was online so we could - as a community - create new ideas with the help of each other's throughts. We decided to make a pictogram using Canva and we explored together how to use it - again in a very collaborative way, not just letting the person who is good at one thing do it, but encouraging and helping each other to test the various functions and options. The process of producing the final pictogram offered several opportunities for practicing

When I signed up for the ONL-course, globalization was taken for granted and online learning was embraced by a smaller portion of my colleagues. When the course started, it was nice to meet so many people who share the same interests as I do related to digital tools, online learning environments etc. Now, facing the new Corona virus/Covid-19 we suddently experience a significantly modified way of living (understatement?). Teachers at our university had to switch to online learning with one day notice (!).  Our present experiences in these challenging time make the topics of this course extremely relevant and I can't wait to see the results of research about the giant steps into the world of online teaching & learning that were taken within education all over the world. But life goes on, in spite of Corona-on-the-agenda, so I want to dedicate some lines to my experiences of the last couple of weeks with ONL201. For Topic 1 (Online participation & digital literacies), our P
