Hello Rebecca!

Rob Darrow: That is a good point about when the mooc panel talks. I wonder if that would change involvement if panel was on Monday vs. Thursday?

Philosophy and Theory, Vol. 40, No. 1

?

Vance Stevens:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stigmergy

scott lockman: it's now happening, thx

Sanford Arbogast: do you mean I have new knowledge or we have created a new idea?

I wonder if there is a connection between contructivism, connectivism and complexity theory?

John Graves: Downes lastweek said to put out a weekly newsletter.

Rebecca Hogue: Do you guys do the panels?

Yes, good question.

Rob Darrow: I have done most of the panels

Rob Darrow: But doing thepanel live with the Twitter back channel is more fun

Rebecca Hogue: Out of curiosity, where is everyone?

Rob Darrow: Hi Maizie

Rebecca Hogue: So cool!

Rob Darrow: Jeff says, use GMT for an international audience for time

Fewer clicks the better, for sure!

Maizie Avihayil: So what time is it GMT?
