JPL Web 2.0 "7 & 1/2 Exercise" - repeat for the purpose of posting

hello all,
so far - soooooo good ya'll! i'm really excited about the jpl 2.0 project as the timing and approach is right on the mark. for starters, i especially dig stephen abram's work. (i was also fortunate to hear his visionary speak at the 2007 fla conference in buena vista.) in add, how can you go wrong by following plcmc and helene blowers in particular? her online 7 & 1/2 habits and lifelong learner tutorials are clear, effective, and just right for laying the foundation for the independent/interdependent web 2.0 learning. lastly, going along with the exercise, the easiest learning habit for me is "accept responsibility for your own learning." i would say this is so because i have always struggled to learn in a formal environment and so HAD to learn to find creative solutions that worked for my needs. next, "view problems as a challenge" definately gets the cake for being my weakest habit as i know i can easily get flustered and feel left behind. still, experience has proven that the best "tool" for managing this learning block is to try as hard as i can to learn independently THEN seek as much outside help from as many knowledgeable sources as need be.
