8th January – 1st Lecture

Feeling excited after this first lecture. Great content with loads to think about. Really loved the reflexion on silence. It was something that was bugging me as silence in an online lecture feels very awkward and I wasn’t sure how to sort the problem out. Thanks to that lecture I now tell the students that I am giving them a couple of minutes to think which has sorted the problem and I can feel that everybody is relieved by this “authorised and planned silence”.

Can’t wait for the rest of the course even though being a student feels at times weird to me who is a dyslectic autodidact. So far the biggest tribulation is getting lost in the academic jargon!
