Aloha blogosphere

David Warlick and Will Richardson arrived in Honolulu last week at Kūkulu Kaiaulu 2.0: Building Global Communities conference. The buz words were creating personal learning communities. Through the power of Web 2.o technologies to connect people and ideas, knowledge creation is different now.

These two individuals inspired me to give it one more go. Through the power of RSS, wiki's and blogs, I saw a potential for learning that I never before imagined. An environment where learning is personal, customized, immediate. For the first time, information had a face, a family, and the ability to talk back.

I'm a recent Graduate and Instructional Designer for an online doctorate program. The purpose for this blog is to have conversations about online learning, mentoring, education, and technology. Learning is different now, so they say.
