I've been taking part in the  Thinking Digitally coursse and it's introduced me to online tools that I would not have otherwise known about. The course has been done in a collaborative nature, with everyone helping each other out. It's also been convenient in that it has been organised for a time that is suitable for everyone, and with it being based around online seminars, I can take part from home. Living in a remote part of the country, this is important. Hopefully I can use what I've learnt to help others in my community to get more active digitally in a way that suits them

I've worked in adult learning now for over 15 years and can't emphasise enough how important life long learning is. Personally I get so much more out of learning now than when I was younger. Fitting it in round a very busy life is sometimes a real challenge but then I have spent much of this afternoon enjoying collecting materials to put on a digital artefact.

I've begun to see how many interesting possibilities there are out there, plus being able to connect with people from different areas.

As an Adult Literacies Support Worker I have a huge belief that lifelong learning is for everyone.  This course has stretched my comfort zone as a more mature man using digital technology.  Lifelong learning is not all about the work place or even "useful" courses, it should be about finding something that interests you and just "going for it" (with apologies to Nike!).  The way this course is set up suits both my work and home life as there is only one set session in a week and I can do the research and work as, where and when it suits me, which is useful when you start looking at one digital tool and end up through the convolutions of the internet somewhere totally different but just as interesting.
I would say to all adult learners, it's a great big world out there just go out and learn.

Thinking Digitally is proving to be great fun though admittedly a challenge! I love experimenting with the digital 'tools' I have been introduced to. I particularly enjoy the creative tools. Some tools are just 'not me' but such is the freedom of th course, I can pick and choose my best fit. Honestly, I used to be a bit suspicious and dismissive of 'cloud' based apps. I am now a convert! I am enjoying being in the learner seat and can't wait to share my new knowledge to collaborate on or facilitate digital artefact projects with learners and colleagues.

As the course tutor of "Thinking Digitally" I am learning every week from the other participants in the group who are experienced CLD workers or in community facing roles. This course isn't about a top down approach, it's about sharing ideas and  knowledge and every week I obtain fresh ideas about how to engage adult learners in interesting ways and how to use digital technology and apps effectively. I feel inspired and renewed by the motivation of others and can't wait to see their finished digital artefacts.
