MOOC I & PLE

Hello everyone,

I followed Introduction to Personal Branding MOOC on Coursera, and I really enjoyed this experience.

This course helped me to a get better understanding of new concepts and the way to devolop it such as:

  • Personal branding , what it needs, and the importance of it.
  • Taking advantage of the different social Media platforms with 80/20 rule.
  • Failure is a part of your journey,  how should you deal with it.
  • Reputation Management.
  • Your digital privacy and how to protect it.

I also took Myers-Briggs test but I think the questions were few and not enough to give the accurate answer to whether you are an introvert or extrovert.
The course focused on Twitter, but I think  if it focused on LinkedIn, for example, it would be more useful.

To link this with my personal learning environment PLE, it reminded me to add Coursera to my learning tools, it also made me consider new connection apps to separate my  personal life from the professional one. Speaking about Connection sector, This course made me aware of the importance of  the personal branding and use it to promote myself to get the special opportunity that matches my special competences and skills and this the goal of connection and showing what you have.

Here is the proof of completing the course: https://coursera.org/verify/MNV9PPH44JMY

PLE

Hi everyone,
PLE is Personal Learning Environment, a kind of  virtual table you use everyday in your academic life.
First you can see my initial PLE, I can say that it is moderate and cute. It is made of four categories: Searching Tools, Learning, Creating Editing and Organization, and finally Communication and Sharing.

 

 

It shows the steps and tools I use in my everyday work. I think it needs mor professionalism and organization that come with developing yourself everyday.
Here is my “improved ” PLE, it has more categories which means more details and order. The applications and websites used now are more professional now.

I wanted to improve the searching and learning area, as well as connection section, and still I’d like to focus on them in the future.
I’ve been using essential  platforms like Wikipedia and Google since the beginning but I added Moodle for example later. LinkedIn is a must these days since it opens a new door with every click. Canvas also is a perfect substitute  foe several websites.
Not forgetting to mention adding Calendar to help in time management and respect deadlines.
I am looking forward for learning anything new and equip myself with the skills needed to be a superior student and professional engineer later.
See you in a later post!
