INTRODUCTION TO PERSONAL BRANDING – University of Virginia
In this MOOC, I found very useful the introduction of concepts that I personally have never reflect about such as reputation, schedules and different types of social media, but the most useful thing for me was the personal work to do to define a personal brand. I found out that first it is important to know yourself, your personality, what statement of life you have, what people inspire you personally, to be able to know which is the best version of yourself that you want to be and the feeling you want to transmit to other people.
In consequence, this MOOC has helped me to know myself better than before. On the Internet I used to act by intuition, not really reflecting on the image I was giving, but knowing that what you publish on Internet, will be there forever. It taught me how to differentiate from others, which are the mean qualities that make me unique and how to be authentic online too. This was also possible thanks to the Myers Briggs personality test, which helped me understand how I am and how to apply it to my digital identity
I have improved my PLE, adding applications such as Coursera and Twitter.
CIRCULAR ECONOMY: AN INTRODUCTION – Delft University of Technology
I find this MOOC very interesting and complete. For me, the most useful part has been all the experiences and interviews with experts about different fields of the circular economy concept. I really made me reflect on all the aspects that are part of the circular economy, including all the stakeholders. It was very motivating also to see the attitude of all these experts working hard to achieve the transformation of the actual system.
As well, the assignments are very interesting due to the fact that they made the participant analyze different problems and be creative to find solutions and answers to those problems. For me, one of the most interesting questions that they analyze is the manufacturer responsibility in the end of use of a product and the conflict between the original manufacturer and the remanufacturer of a product.
I have improved my PLE by adding the application of EDX, but also discovering new platforms of information such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and the webs of many other companies I did not know before, based on this model of economy.
