Reflections on PP107
Having made a list with all the tools I can use, made me realise how much I learnt in this course, and also that there are many others that I need to learn. I believe PP107 has worked as a trigger for me, since it created a positive need to learn and explore more about it.
During these four weeks, I have experienced different feelings as a result of not focusing on what I actually needed. It was not until I read Vance’s comment that it dawned on me what my objectives were. Fortunately, I was able to set my objectives and at this point , I can say I have achieved them.
Web 2.0 tools + examples
I have included all the tools and some examples of the things I have done so far.

Are we edupunks?
What's an EDUPUNK?
Jim Groom as "poster boy" for edupunk
The term was first used on May 25, 2008 by Jim Groom in his blog, and covered less than a week later in the Chronicle of Higher Education. Stephen Downes, an online education theorist and an editor for the International Journal of Instructional Technology and Distance Learning, noted that "the concept of Edupunk has totally caught wind, spreading through the blogosphere like wildfire".

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edupunk is an approach to teaching and learning practices that result from a do it yourself (DIY) attitude.[1][2] The New York Times defines it as "an approach to teaching that avoids mainstream tools like PowerPoint and Blackboard, and instead aims to bring the rebellious attitude and D.I.Y. ethos of ’70s bands like The Clash to the classroom."[3] Many instructional applications can be described as DIY education or Edupunk.
