Verena Roberts is a Candian educator who is offering a free/open online course (a MOOC!)
that starts tomorrow, and offers participants the opportunity to learn
about their "digital footprint" and social media in an inclusive,
supported, and networked environment. The course title is "#DigiFoot12:"
Learn about tracking your digital footprint by using social and digital media. Create and develop your PLN, tweet your learning, see what students are already doing with social media, chat about cyberbullying, and learn how to learn how to network and connect in your own way. The course meets weekly with a new "Lead Detective" each week. You can participate as a family, a professional development group, or as an individual. The course starts on July 5th and finishes Aug 15th.
