@websjapan "You could not step twice into the same river; for other waters are ever flowing on to you." Heraclitus was on Twitter! #mscidel
#mscidel twitter "conversations" are really doing my head in. unthreaded = ?
#mscidel Dreyfus contradicts himself in some instances – he presents distance education students as passive recipients of information.
@hamacleod I agree, Dreyfus has a limited notion of risk - requiring physical presence? - reputational risk is enough, surely #mscidel

RT @giles_julian: #mscidel First ever tweet. Test ready for tomorrow. Very uncomfortable with the 100% public nature of this.
@hamacleod Indeed, some students have already said on the discussion board & Twitter that it feels risky to express opinion online. #mscidel
@hamacleod Personal preference colouring my opinions I'd guess! #mscidel
@giles_julian "Horses for courses"? Why assume that physical "presence" is some privileged way to communicate - always? #mscidel
RT @giles_julian: @jar No, being the the same room as someone is different ...... 8< ... #mscidel / Different; but not necessarily better.
Dreyfus; do we *really* leave our bodies - our emotions - *behind* when we go online? #mscidel
#mscidel the plan of reading Dreyfus on the train didn't work, met people going to same meeting! Might work out on way home this evening.
RT @sbayne: I'm with Burbules: the classroom proximity which empowers some, oppresses others - distance has educational value #mscidel
@giles_julian @hamacleod might have some links to evidence that questions how good we actually are reading 'non-verbal cues'. #mscidel

#mscidel first ever tweet..excited but a wee bit scared!
@Cathb22 thanks for the codeacademy link. I've only finished the first set of activities so far. It guess it's not my 'code year'! #mscidel
#mscidel as always, need to ask what's the problem we are trying to solve - ultimate, not pro proximate
#mscidel reading Dreyfus, 2001 ed, now. I'll be back.
#mscidel If your interested in coding, great website, easy to follow tutorials www.codecademy.com
@websjapan #mscidel As I see it, he basically says students taking ownership of their education leads to better achievement
@jar #mscidel probably not, but then he doesn't really seem to make much sense to me!
@jar No, being the the same room as someone is different due to feeling their presence; non verbal communication cues too. #mscidel
