What am I talking about?!

Semana i started today, and thereby my digital identity course. The lecturer of the digital identity course, Ken Bauer welcomed us today at 8am in the congress room 1 of Tecnologico de Monterrey with a brief introduction and an overview about the course content and the objectives. The course seems very interesting, the lecturer is really motivated and tries to shape and structure the course as appealing as possible, which in my opinion happened successful. I am very happy that I have chosen this course, and I hope to learn a lot about our traces we produce everyday on the internet and the implications of these for us during the next 4 days.

What happened today?!

After the introduction of our lecturer Ken Bauer, we heard the guest speaker Dave Cormier, who was connected live via internet with us on the big screen of the congress room. At the same time this video conversation was streamed live on Youtube.( Here is the Youtube-link for everybody who would like to see the video conversation with Dave Cormier again: –> Dave Cormier’s video conversation with Tec students

After the video conference with our guest speaker for today, we continued with a small activity, where everybody in the audience was asked to write down a short text (in tweet size) about who we are, and each, 5 things we want to improve about ourselves, 5 things we like about ourselves, and 5 things other people don’t know about us on a small index card. To be honest, I did not quite get the intention of this activity, as nobody in the room seemed to be concerned with this activity. Almost everybody left the room early to go on the break, and as most of the people returned after 30-40minutes to the room, the activity did not seem to be a matter anymore at all, as we just continued with setting up our blogs, instead of paying a minute of attention to the activity we started before the break.

What am I expecting during the next days?!

I really enjoyed my first day of semana i, in particular the energy, power and joy Ken Bauer puts into this course. In addition, I regarded the video conference with Dave Cormier as really entertaining, I really appreciated the opportunity to ask Dave questions about surfing behavior on the Internet and its implications. When taking a look at the schedule for the next 4 days and the guest lecturers we are going to listen, I have to admit that I’m full of high expectations and I’m super stoked!

I’m definitely looking forward to it!!!

Stay Tuned!!!!!!!!!!

Woooooohoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
