The massive online course known as Connectivism and Connective Knowledge 2009, or CCK09 for short, has begun. This is a free course open to anyone who wants to learn more about and actively practice George Siemens' theory of Connectivism. The course is hosted by George and Stephen Downes. I participated in the course last year and recommend it highly. It's a lot of work if you complete most of the activities, but it's well worth it and I guarantee you will learn A LOT. The beauty of this course is that you can participate as much, or as little, as you want. There are no grades and no pressure. It really is a lot of fun.

I won't be able to be as active this time around because I am preparing for doctoral comps, but I do plan to drop in as much as possible to see what I can pick up and see how things are going this year.
