@divya_sharmajp Hello, Divya! Thanks for joining the chat. :) #iolchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:06 PM EDT

@IOLblog Big deadlines are all gone, so I can breathe for a week or two ;) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:06 PM EDT

Are there any buzzwords in particular that we'll be discussing? #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:06 PM EDT

@bnleez Excellent - I still need to try that one. Using TweetChat today. #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:07 PM EDT

@bnleez I'm actually going to ask for some "favorites" ... Q1) coming up! #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:07 PM EDT

@IOLblog Perfect! #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:08 PM EDT

Here we go! Q1) Which education and technology buzzwords and phrases do you hear/see most often? And where? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:08 PM EDT

The Flipped Classroom #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:09 PM EDT

@bnleez Nice one. #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:09 PM EDT

#iolchat Hi, Divya Sharma from JP elem. Prince. NJ,

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:09 PM EDT

A1: I see the term "flipped classroom" to discuss anything from homework to student engagement within the classroom. #IOLchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:10 PM EDT

A1) Common buzz words inmy office: Pedagogy, andragogy, learning environment, LMS #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:11 PM EDT

@ceasom Pedagogy and andragogy popular in my circles as well. "learning environment" is an interesting one! Could mean anything. #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:11 PM EDT

A1) Blended Learning, engagement, collaboration, distance learning, online learning, LMS... #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

@bnleez Exactly! the term could refer to a pretty large range of things, activities, strategies ... #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

A1) self-directed learning, problem-based learning #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

A: Learning management system, content management system, personal learning environment, etc. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

@jshamsy Oooh, yes! Great list. "Engagement" is one that seems to be everywhere. #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

blended learning vs. online blended learning #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:13 PM EDT

Welcome to #IOLchat, Paul! https://t.co/XYnoHMYQrP

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:12 PM EDT

@IOLblog Paul joining today Hello

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:13 PM EDT

@jshamsy, Yes, engagement by neglecting effectiveness and efficiency. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:13 PM EDT

@ceasom I love the gogy-s .. Heutagogy too =) #iolchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:13 PM EDT

Distance education versus online education, and yes, "student engagement" is a common one too! #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:14 PM EDT

@bnleez Hmmmm...interesting. Any differences between those two that you can see? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:14 PM EDT

collaboration vs. cooperation #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:14 PM EDT

@IOLblog But what does it really mean? That is the real question =) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:15 PM EDT

Blended learning refers to online vs. offline delivery #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:15 PM EDT

@bnleez And the "online blended?" Maybe just a reference to that part of the delivery? #iolchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:15 PM EDT

@jshamsy We need a PhD just to pronounce half of the gogys LOL #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:16 PM EDT

online blended learning refers to varies technologies used to deliver content or forms of communication, typically all online. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:16 PM EDT

#IOLchat Agreed - sounds great, but what does it mean? #buzzwords https://t.co/ZC0tU92SCQ

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:13 PM EDT

@IOLblog A1 Buzzwords: digital citizenship in ed-tech chats

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:17 PM EDT

@philosophypaul Don't forget to add our chat hashtag. :) #IOLchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:17 PM EDT

@bnleez We only use the term blended - or hybrid - when only part of a course or program is delivered online #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:18 PM EDT

@philosophypaul @IOLblog, could you expand on this? Synchronous toosl w/ asynchronous format? #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:19 PM EDT

@philosophypaul @bnleez I think there is an interesting discussion here #IOLchat a "blend" of synch and asynch

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:19 PM EDT

For me, synchronous and asynchronous refer to two ways of communication, both which may be online or offline. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:19 PM EDT

@ceasom @bnleez Distinction between instructional phase (when) and medium (how) - sometimes I think those get mixed up #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:20 PM EDT

A1 : Positive emotions PERMA in education #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:20 PM EDT

Synchronous, asynchronous, and semi-synchronous...I have heard these used. #IOLchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:20 PM EDT

@bnleez @IOLblog #IOLchat sure - using real time tools in an asynchronous environ -- messenger, GHO, Adobe Connect

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:21 PM EDT

@divya_sharmajp Interesting! You're seeing this as an approach or technique that's become a buzzword in ed? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:21 PM EDT

PERMA https://t.co/BS44yGaUjA #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:21 PM EDT

@bnleez Semi-synchronous is a new one to me. #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:21 PM EDT

PERMA https://t.co/Gv6c58FbYT #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:22 PM EDT

Opps, not sure why PERMA link posted twice. No pun intended. #IOLchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:22 PM EDT

Yes. And courses generally defined by dominate domain: F2F, blended, hybrid, and online. #IOLchat https://t.co/pqX19pmWsE

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:19 PM EDT

For me, synchronous and asynchronous refer to two ways of communication, both which may be online or offline. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:22 PM EDT

@bnleez Thanks for the link! Another new one. As well as the reference to "permalicious." ;) #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:23 PM EDT

@IOLblog @bnleez Semi-synchronous -- possibly Hybrid #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:23 PM EDT

@philosophypaul, yes, delivery and communication type are two key elements to any course. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:23 PM EDT

@bnleez my virus protection won't let me pull up the link...short definition? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:24 PM EDT

@philosophypaul @IOLblog, Semi-synchronous might be a slow twitter chat, one that is not in real time (synchronous). #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:24 PM EDT

RT @bnleez @philosophypaul @IOLblog, Semi-synchronous might be a slow twitter chat, one that is not in real time (synchronous). #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:24 PM EDT

I am wondering if all of the types of delivery interfere with what is actually being delivered =( Has flexibility trumped content? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:25 PM EDT

Hybrid or blended learning refers only to delivery and not ways individuals communicate...at least that's how I see it. :) #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:25 PM EDT

@IOLblog @bnleez @philosophypaul Interesting..so period of time between interactions defines? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:25 PM EDT

@jshamsy, they shouldn't. They should facilitate how learner interact with content. #IOLchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:26 PM EDT

@bnleez @IOLblog Example #T2Tchat - slow chat #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:26 PM EDT

@jshamsy @IOLblog @philosophypaul, speaking about synchronous, etc., yes. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:26 PM EDT

@bnleez Agreed..and flipped is when Intro (Activation)/Demonstration (Application) break from Practice/Assessment/Integration #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:27 PM EDT

@bnleez Shouldn't..but I am thinking they do... #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:27 PM EDT

I think we are moving into some examples related to the next Q ... coming up #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:27 PM EDT

Q2) What makes these "buzzwords?" #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:27 PM EDT

@jshamsy Delivery interference -- The medium is the message? #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:28 PM EDT

@jshamsy Flipped...is when forms of communication and delivery afford for more dynamic interactions in the classroom (f2f). #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:28 PM EDT

@Kent_Darr @gaofei9 Very interesting..mine was qualitative and centered around what participants got out of it (why) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:28 PM EDT

@philosophypaul @jshamsy The message (content) flows through the medium (channel). #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:28 PM EDT

@philosophypaul exactly! #iolchat I like that "medium is the message"

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:28 PM EDT

@bnleez Interesting idea - what about the face to face student who uses email to communicate with the instructor? Is that blended? #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

@bnleez @philosophypaul In theory..it should #iolchat I am just thinking that too much emphasis on tech/apps..very distracting #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

@bnleez @philosophypaul In theory..it should #iolchat I am just thinking that too much emphasis on tech/apps..very distracting #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

The medium might influence the message (for better or for worse), but I see both as being separate. #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

@jshamsy @philosophypaul Absolutely, totally agree. #IOLchat

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:30 PM EDT

@jshamsy @IOLblog @bnleez @philosophypaul So any instant messenger automatically becomes semi-synch cos it's not truly real time? #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:30 PM EDT

A2) someone writes a book or viral blog post/video @iolblog ? =) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:30 PM EDT

Right now the message are the ideas we are sharing, the medium is Twitter, Participate Learning, etc. #IOLchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:31 PM EDT

Distraction may come w newest tech toy when functionality is forgotten Yes. #IOLchat https://t.co/31hw8MiOaY

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

@bnleez @philosophypaul In theory..it should #iolchat I am just thinking that too much emphasis on tech/apps..very distracting #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:31 PM EDT

@ceasom @jshamsy @IOLblog @philosophypaul IMs are synchronous if discussions are in real time. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:31 PM EDT

@bnleez But w/those that are getting it wrong - they pay more attention to the medium and less to the message. That is bad #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:32 PM EDT

#IOLchat Definitely see the novelty aspect. And yes! Lack of widely-accepted definitions adds to the #buzzword https://t.co/p5bUB4pCQy

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:29 PM EDT

@IOLblog A2 IOLchat Why buzzwords? Novelty, usage, and exploration w new tech and pedagogical methods still being defined.

ceasom Apr 27 @ 12:32 PM EDT

@bnleez @jshamsy @IOLblog @philosophypaul Typing takes longer than speaking, so how do you define time delay to qualify semi-sync?#iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:33 PM EDT

@ceasom Blended learning is a mix between offline (f2f) and online interaction. So, yes, that's an example. It's a buzzword. :) #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:33 PM EDT

@jshamsy @iolblog Absolutely helps fuel the fire - when used by a leader in the industry, then becomes part of larger convos. #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:33 PM EDT

A2. #iolchat education companies/researchers sometimes trying to come up with new ways to drive sales of their products

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:33 PM EDT

@jshamsy @bnleez Mistake when medium drowns message #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:34 PM EDT

@ceasom @jshamsy @IOLblog @philosophypaul Terms are not absolutes, they are open to interpretation. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:34 PM EDT

@divya_sharmajp Indeed! Marketing, marketing, marketing. ;) #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:36 PM EDT

@bnleez @ceasom @IOLblog @philosophypaul Agreed...things are changing it is more about what works versus one-size-fits all #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:36 PM EDT

There is a buzz word "personalized learning" versus "one size fits all." #iolchat

karenraycosta Apr 27 @ 12:36 PM EDT

@IOLblog I'm a little late! For me the biggest buzzword right now is "engagement." I fear it has lost its meaning within the buzz. #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:36 PM EDT

@IOLblog, Any way to use "Q2:" to begin questions so that Participate Learning automatically organizes and sorts responses by Q? #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:37 PM EDT

Sorry, I missed the second question... #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:37 PM EDT

@bnleez @ceasom @jshamsy @philosophypaul Well said - "open to interpretation" #buzzwords #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:37 PM EDT

@jshamsy @ceasom @IOLblog @philosophypaul Absolutely! #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:37 PM EDT

@karenraycosta @IOLblog Hi Karen... we were just talking about that - what does it even mean? Along a continuum I would guess #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:37 PM EDT

@bnleez No worries! I'll try to be more consistent with the formatting. Thanks. :) #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:38 PM EDT

@karenraycosta Hello, Karen! Yes, we are in agreement - what is it? who does it? #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:38 PM EDT

@bnleez @ceasom @jshamsy @IOLblog @philosophypaul and that's why they shld be used with caution #iolchat. old concepts with new labels

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:38 PM EDT

Buzzwords are abstract ideas that sound good but mean different things to different people and are usually complex to employ. #IOLchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:39 PM EDT

@IOLblog @bnleez @ceasom @jshamsy #IOLchat buzz precedes inclusion in Miriam-Webster w fixed definition

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:39 PM EDT

@bnleez Well said!!! #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:40 PM EDT

Like No Child Left Behind...sounds great...who would argue against that? But how to implement it? That's another story. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:40 PM EDT

Q3) How can we separate serious meaning from hype? #buzzwords #OnlineEducation #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:40 PM EDT

A3: Through dialogue...like what we are doing right now!! :) #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:41 PM EDT

@bnleez As long as part of a well-planned/intentional instructional design process think that some of these buzzwords can be useful #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:41 PM EDT

Great example! #IOLchat Education Buzzwords https://t.co/sSpjQREsZk

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:40 PM EDT

Like No Child Left Behind...sounds great...who would argue against that? But how to implement it? That's another story. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:41 PM EDT

A3) Proof is in the pudding - look at performance gap - did it assist in closing it? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:41 PM EDT

What does the buzzword mean to the individual, based on what kind of local teaching and learning context. #IOLchat

karenraycosta Apr 27 @ 12:42 PM EDT

@IOLblog I have taken to using the word inspiration in its place. #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:42 PM EDT

A3: Answer what, where, when, why, how, etc. about the buzzword at the individual level. Then look for patterns. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:43 PM EDT

@jshamsy @bnleez The conversation part of what you are saying is huge - esp on a particular project. What do we mean when we say _? #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:43 PM EDT

@IOLblog A3 #IOLchat Hype? Watch for sales ticket, agenda promotion, or promotion of vagary. Serious mng. may come w prof. collaboration

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:43 PM EDT

@karenraycosta I like it! :) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:43 PM EDT

@jshamsy Also depends on how the instructional design ultimately gets implemented and evaluated. #IOLchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:43 PM EDT

@bnleez agreed discussion helps separate fluff from usefulness #IOLchat

karenraycosta Apr 27 @ 12:44 PM EDT

@IOLblog We have to create spaces to have real conversations on our campuses and in our work. Conflict doesn't have to be negative. #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:44 PM EDT

@jshamsy Yes pragmatic test. #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:44 PM EDT

Buzzwords are oftentimes political, or wrapped up in some kind of commercial interest. Know the stakeholders behind the buzzword. #IOLchat

karenraycosta Apr 27 @ 12:44 PM EDT

@IOLblog I would love to attend a session on "What's Engagement?" and wish we had more of that big picture talk in #highered #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:45 PM EDT

@karenraycosta @IOLblog, yes, resolving cognitive conflict is good practice. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:45 PM EDT

@karenraycosta Sounds like a great topic for a paper or conference presentation! Get the real conversation going ... #buzzwords #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:45 PM EDT

@bnleez so true #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:46 PM EDT

@karenraycosta @IOLblog I try to lump engagement with effectiveness and efficiency... #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:46 PM EDT

@bnleez That would be based on what the performance gap/instructional problem was defined at the front end #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:46 PM EDT

Beware the buzz euphemisms that serve the political agenda. #IOLchat https://t.co/Lbf9WeG14Q

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:44 PM EDT

Buzzwords are oftentimes political, or wrapped up in some kind of commercial interest. Know the stakeholders behind the buzzword. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:46 PM EDT

Nice points here about assessing the source - who's using the buzzword, what are their goals and motives, who is intended audience? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:47 PM EDT

@jshamsy If you get buy-in on what the gap actually is, and how to decrease it. :) #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:48 PM EDT

@bnleez True..half the battle is determining and proving what the problem really is (not the symptoms) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:48 PM EDT

@IOLblog, Everyone has self-interest...it is about how the buzzword mutually helps each person, ideally. #IOLchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:49 PM EDT

@jshamsy, and the problem usually changes over time, as do individuals, technologies, etc. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:49 PM EDT

@bnleez Back to interpretation and communication - looking for meaning behind the message that is being sent and how it is received #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:50 PM EDT

Time for our last Q ... coming up ... #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:51 PM EDT

@IOLblog, sure, in linguistics we discuss perlocutionary, and illocutionary forces. What is the intended meaning effect on others #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:52 PM EDT

Q4) What do prospective online students need to know about online education buzzwords? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:52 PM EDT

@IOLblog, this has lots to do with speech acts... #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:53 PM EDT

@ceasom @iolblog .. Colin has been awful quiet...I bet he is halfway to the coffee shop by now =) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:53 PM EDT

A4: Know the kinds of communication and delivery means that surround the buzzword and its context. Based on this, make a decision. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:53 PM EDT

@bnleez I can see where that's the case. I need to refresh my knowledge in this area - lots to think about as we chose our words. #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@IOLblog Oh Melissa..can we restart the 1 hour clock? =) #iolchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@jshamsy @ceasom Coffee sounds great! 8) #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@IOLblog, Yes, it is all about understanding the effects our message might have on others. And what our intention is when we speak #IOLchat

karenraycosta Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@IOLblog I wrote an essay about this couple of weeks ago, we should try to keep the "beginner's mind" in our work. #iolchat #nojargon

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@jshamsy This has been a lively one! We may want to revisit blended and synchronous topics again soon? #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:55 PM EDT

Absolutely! #IOLchat https://t.co/QDvmevm5o8

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:54 PM EDT

@jshamsy This has been a lively one! We may want to revisit blended and synchronous topics again soon? #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:55 PM EDT

@IOLblog A4 Online learners may dispense w buzzwords when ID and instructor make learning process transparent Leave for pros. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:55 PM EDT

@bnleez Consider them scheduled! #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:56 PM EDT

Would say to an #onlinelearning student - have clear idea of what you are trying achieve, then work backwards to find program #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:56 PM EDT

A4: e.g., Students taking an blended course oftentimes fail to recognize the time commitment involved. #IOLchat

IOLblog Apr 27 @ 12:56 PM EDT

@philosophypaul Nice! Great idea to let the IDs and instructors translate in a way - use more effective language and apply #iolchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:57 PM EDT

@bnleez Yes YES!!!!! This is one of the biggest fallacies of online learning - it isn't click click click done - real commitment!! #iolchat

divya_sharmajp Apr 27 @ 12:57 PM EDT

@IOLblog @jshamsy #IOLchat yes. these buzzwords make my head spin,toomany and shroud the meaning/purpose

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:57 PM EDT

@bnleez @IOLblog Viewed from linguists buzz suggests a public context w stakeholders driving convo. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:58 PM EDT

@divya_sharmajp @IOLblog well said! Something very important to keep in mind #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:58 PM EDT

A4: e.g., Or Students may not feel comfortable or used to communicating in ways that are common in such a course. #IOLchat

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:58 PM EDT

@bnleez With the caveat that not all programs are created equal..there is still too much variability #iolchat

philosophypaul Apr 27 @ 12:58 PM EDT

Backwords work is highly effective ID that may alleviate buzz-word confusion #IOLchat https://t.co/xooRTNxlHd

jshamsy Apr 27 @ 12:56 PM EDT

Would say to an #onlinelearning student - have clear idea of what you are trying achieve, then work backwards to find program #iolchat

bnleez Apr 27 @ 12:59 PM EDT

@jshamsy Perhaps, but still hard to generalize. #IOLchat
