I am so grateful that I have discovered MOOC's (Massive Open On-line Courses)! Why?
One: I can take actual Stanford, Harvard, MIT, etc. classes taught by leaders in the various fields I find interesting ;)
Two: They give me ideas for my own online teaching.
Three: I can take refresher courses with updated and current information for classes I took years ago.
Four: I can take classes I never had the time or money to take before, so I didn't worry about it at the time because although I found some things interesting, they weren't needed for the degree I was working on at the time.
Five: To be able to take college level courses for free from esteemed institutions of higher education just to expand my knowledge and understanding of the universe is so amazing!
I have enough paper, just to learn to learn without an agenda is such a freeing and exciting feeling!
So far I've been playing in the edX, Coursera, and Khan playgrounds!
