Reblogged from Michael Sean Gallagher:
Reflect Early and Often
I think it is a critical piece of MOOC participation to critically reflect beforehand on what you want to acquire from the experience and what kind of participation you are committed to make. We all balance schedules, juggle responsibilities, and for most of us, MobiMOOC does not represent something that can have 100% of our attention. So, the first and perhaps most critical piece of learning in general and especially for open learning is to reflect on what you want to learn and what you need to learn.
Great idea - will add my thoughts too
