I had a great conversation this morning with my teammates in the UnWorkshop. One of the topics was Jay's comment from our meeting on Monday that "learners should work twice as hard as the 'instructor'." [I'm sure that isn't an exact quote.]
The UnWorkshop is not just making me work by doing research and participating in a group — it is a catalyst for deeper questions:
What do I really think my role should be as an educator/trainer/instructional designer? It's not just a question of doing my job right, it's really about doing the right job.
How do I make Web 2.0 work for me, personally and professionally? At the moment, the cyberworld has become a giant time sink for me. How do I manage all of this — from mySpace to the blog to the office wiki and my personal website?
These are hard questions, and I don't hope to resolve them in a month. But it would be nice to make some headway.
