  An instructor takes a student seat. Shouldn't this be the norm? Shouldn't we all be lifelong learners? He says he thinks about the design of his course, but this is probably because he has very little instructional design support when he actually builds his own courses. Very common among faculty.

Bringing eportfolios to the MOOCs scene

The Taming of the MOOC--With ePortfolio Evidence -- Campus Technology

Trent Batson presents a very good discussion uniting in a synergetic way the topics of eportfolios and MOOCs. Batson makes the point that eportfolio can serve as the venue for evidence and continuous learning that starts with MOOCs. In a closer longer term look, eportfolio could in fact be connected to MOOCs, in the sense that all that is accomplished in the MOOC could be included in e-portfolios, promoting leaner's further reflection.

Sending SMS from Gmail

I have completely adopted browser based email (not using an email client). Mostly for performance reasons, since the local email client spent enormous amount of time indexing messages. For my delight, I had a satisfying experience today with sending SMS via Gmail. Excellent tool. You need to know that to avoid spam, Google has created this scheme that you have a certain number of allowed SMS you can send without a reply. And in order to get a reply, you need to keep the chat window open - meaning this is a true 'chat session', which the identity is used by the receiver to send back a reply.
