"God almechty, it's Reflections"
which should confuse anyone who hasn't heard of Scotland the What, and probably quite a few who have.
This is what I'm supposed to be reflecting on:
1. And so what?
See below.
2. How have your skills/knowledge improved?
A little
3. Have the 'Things' covered everything that you need to know, or think it relevant to know?
Probably not, but it would be unreasonable to expect them to do so.
4. Have the activities suited your learning style? (If you're not sure what your learning style is you can complete a very short VARK questionnaire which gives an indication of your learning style. There are lots of other similar questionnaires on the internet)
Not really. See below.
5. Do you feel more competent and confident?
Slightly.
6. How can you apply this learning?
7. What would you do differently - and what might change about how you approach the next 12 Things?
6 & 7. Not sure about that.
8. Is there one (or more) Thing that you would be happy to recommend to a colleague? Why?
Google calendars, but then I was using it anyway.
More detailed responses:
4/ I think the 'things' perhaps ought to have had more detailed instructions available. They occasionally read like someone who had already done this loads of times was jotting down some notes as an aide memoire. The screenshots really ought to have been of plain browsers with no themes, styles, etc. Many people may be starting this from scratch and to see Firefox decorated with planets or something equally distracting isn't necessarily helpful.
1/ The good, the bad and the ugly, or more accurately, the very good, the OK and the 'please uninvent this now'.
Very good: Google calendars; Doodle; Flickr/images.
OK: Tagging
No thanks; Twitter, and I might be tempted to include Delicious as well in this category.
