Well, the title kinda says it all. The weekend was spent running kids around to various activities. We did take time and go see Shrek 3 on Sun. I have to say that it was pretty good for a third installment. That's the advantage of having children...we can get away with going to see kids movies!!
I'm still plodding through my research. I have to admit that I've hit a bit of a wall recently and am not sure how to break through. I am still waiting for some confirmation from my supervisor's with regards to the scope of my topic, so I've been trying to continue with lit review etc. I guess that I just have to keep plugging away.
I also have to confess that my inspiration for doing this came in a roundabout way. I recently took a course on distributed learning and the "textbook" happened to be Stephen Downes' OLDaily. I have to admit that I first thought it a little strange to have this as a "textbook". But after looking at the information and the links he provides, I realized what a wealth of information was being made available to me. I have since subscribed to various RSS feeds found through his links and have set up my Netvibes homepage for my reader. I can spend a lot of time simply going through the information provided. I had also created an e-portfolio as part of the same class, but had to move it when I changed ISPs. I am hoping to revise it some day (soon...!). I like the idea of having a place to keep my work as it progresses. This is a long journey and one that I hope can be chronicled some day. Anyways, thanks Stephen for your information and inspiration. I still subscribe to and read your newsletter daily!
Well, back to my readings...maybe some lunch first!

It's odd to be thought of as a textbook, but I appreciate the thought. :)
