Week #3

I first heard about Grokker in a library seminar that was required for my Freshman Composition class at UCF. They sped through the information so quickly that I couldn't get down where it was, so, I was overjoyed to have found it again! I like Grokker because I like colors (lol) and because I like being able to see "the big picture." Grokker also helps when you have a broad topic and you aren't sure where you want to go with it.

As I was searching for Mrs. Hodel's blog I stumbled across many of my co-workers blogs! It was funny, and a little eerie how easily I found them. But it is great for finding people who are doing the same things I am doing. I definitely got that small-world-after-all feeling and you don't get that often while searching online.

I think Learn 2.0 is fun. I wouldn't say that it works for or against my learning style as much as it *challenges* my learning styles. I don't really think about the lessons as learning because I enjoy them. I feel like my definition of learning has changed. In this era of knowledge explosion, learning is not always what you can recall from the past as much as it is knowing how to find the information you want when you need it. It is a scary and exciting thing!
