Last year in my student group we had a two week sub-group task to complete over two weeks.
There were three of us in the UK: Lewes, Portsmouth and Buckingham with the other three in Germany, Thailand and New Zealand. During the two week period our Tutor Group Forum was rarely silent for more than a few hours.
By the end of it there were over 100 threads to the discussion which I saved to MyStuff (OU ePortfolio) but also pasted into this blog (set on private) as it continues both to illustrate and inspire the brilliance of the MAODE.
It turned my head inside out, demonstrating that the learning experience is far more effective and enjoyable when shared.
The University that never sleeps?
