I chose this activity because the last Module4 activity made me interested in participating again. This way of sharing my views with learners can enliven the overall learning atmosphere and give me a feeling of integration. In this way I would be more likely to engage in active learning.

Q2: Expanding on Q1, if you had to characterized #OpenEd with just 1 word, what word would you use?

Self-reflection
I chose this activity because I wanted to try to understand how to use Twitter as a platform for multimedia learning. It was a novel experience to participate in the Twitter chat, as the platform allowed me to clearly express my views in short sentences and to discuss and exchange ideas with other colleagues, which I found very meaningful as I had not used Twitter as an educational tool before.
