Finding Flow in #OpenEdMOOC
Whenever I begin a MOOC, it usually takes a few days to find flow - with #OpenEdMOOC, I'm getting there. A bit of context, I am taking the course for credit (edX), but only enter to make sure I'm meeting course requirements. I spend most of my time outside of edX because engagement feels more natural.
Here's my current work flow:
Respond to any Twitter notifications related to the course.
Refer to static note in Evernote with a clipping of course readings, etc. (An Introduction to Open Education). This allows for easy access since I spend most of my day in Evernote.
Check Twitter hashtag feed and respond directly when inspired to do so (try to do this at least once per day). This includes retweets, favoriting, quoting, and replying.
Check Twitter hashtag feed of any blog posts that are of interest.
Using Evernote, will share selected text from blog posts, leave a remark, and post to Buffer account to schedule future tweet.
.Publish to blog any initial ideas based on weekly topics.
Enter edX to post any links and contribute to discussions as required.
So far, this is working for me, although still just in week one. Will see how it goes...
I am curious how others manage work flows for #OpenEdMOOC.
