How well could I fulfill my goals?
Well, I was sure I would do more; create, write and "fuzzaround" making the group members to work.. But I ended up only commenting. Heh, I did try to do an actual evaluation plan but it was deleted (twice). So there was no plan done, just some questions. There were two hyperactive guys in our group who did almost everything - and deleted things they didn´t like. Good point was that they really did things and we others commented but I believe all of us would have enjoyed also the actual doing. They started out with force when I was still wondering the life of a mother, so I didn´t manage to jump in to their pace.
Besides commenting I also did comment other group member´s blogs, used a whole lot of not-so-familiar tools (Google Groups, Doodle Polls, Zoho...), put some links to the del.isio.us -account, wrote something about wikis as learning environments, did a lot of evaluation on other groups´courses and wrote a lot to this blog.
So I can say that I achieved quite much but would have done more also. Luckily I´ve studied quite a lot of eLearning (e.g. Mediapedagogy in university level for 25 ECTS points) so I don´t feel so left out. I do know that mostly it was up to me; I could have been more active but I know also that I would have done more if there wasn´t these guys who did almost everything. But it was good for the group that there were these active guys since I had my baby back then when it would have been time to be more active. It just happened that my baby got first :) She is little only once and she really needed me. And I enjoyed being with her so much. I still am with her all the time, now I just am more used to this situation and have more energy to study also. So I just have to settle for this what happened with this course, even tough I´m used to always do 110%.
