Officially overwhelmed by MOOC!!

The E-learning and Digital Cultures starts officially today and I am officially overwhelmed. I have been browsing through your blogs - very informative, which gave me an idea of how "huge" the MOOCs "phenomena" is. I have to get up to speed!

On the other side, I love the slow movement http://www.slowmovement.com/ because even though followers of this "lifestyle" accept and use technology as part of life and progress, they want to follow their natural rhythms to stay connected to nature (and yes! the moon cycles affect you believe it or not). I love technology but you need to decide which one you want to use, why and when and do not let it take over your life. I guess it is going to take some adjustement for all of us.
I see little 3-4 year-olds using tablets and I-phones like they were born with them, which is great, do not get me wrong, but in my opinion they need to know that there is also a "real" world where you can do things that you can't do in  the "digital world".

I am enjoying reading everybody's blogs and I just feel- I guess like everybody these days- I don't have enough time to see all the different "digital tools" , read all the tweets, attend the hangouts, etc but I have decided that it is ok and that I will try my best.
