The untiring Stephen Downes has a new course coming up, "Personal Learning Environments Networks and Knowledge 2010". This topic interests me a great deal, and is also something I will probably be visiting in my PhD program, which I will begin in a few weeks. If this were a traditional course, I would not be able to commit to a specific schedule of readings, contributions etc. However, with a connectivist course, you take what you need, and give what you can (or feel like), and popping in and out of the course is not frowned upon. I did sign up for the EdFutures course, and although I was quite unable to follow all the discussions, I still got some very interesting insights (and made one important new contact) from the experience, so it was absolutely worth it. I have also signed up for this course, and look forward to the discussions that will happen.
