    Sep 26 2012: Sounds good! I wonder if it will ever happen and to what degree.

    Sep 26 2012: Hello Kevin,

    How much influence do you think an inspiring teacher can have in an online setting? Do you think it is as much as in a face-to-face scenario?

  • A comment on Conversation: What was not taught in school that you realize, REALLY should have been? (Why?)

    Sep 26 2012: How to view things from another persons perspective - live as a member of a community, not just an individual.
    We all have a story that has made us who we are, sometimes when we relate to others with this in mind we can be more gracious and less easily offended. I think the world would be a different place if we were all taught (and actually grasped) that although we are unique and valuable beyond measure so is everyone else.

    It's a good question and the responses are really thought provoking - thanks.

    Sep 22 2012: Thanks for sharing the video. I just watched it and it was certainly worth the time.

    I am currently studying a Graduate Certificate in eLearning at University of New England, Australia. It is an online course. I am learning that, as you say, online learning is taking off and it's potential to change education is incredible.
