Have the course designers made a conscious decision to let the participants (re)design the MOOC for the next potential cohort??

I’ll persevere with cloudworks as part of the OLDS MOOC and hope it becomes clearer. I have realized very quickly that you do need to decide which tools and methods of communication work for you and not try and do it all.

John, I reckon there should be a badge ” Professional Cloudworke”r – let me know when you succeed!

Navigating long lists are just not feasible when the beast is putting on weight.

Brilliant. Actually just learning to find my way round cloudworks will be a learning journey for me.
