Day 5 actitivites

Prompted by Jenni's email today, I am venturing into the discussions. I had not realized there was so much conversation taking place within the course!

I posted this earlier on Twitter:

Using CC licenses has been a gradual shift for me. It started with me sharing personal items (like Flickr photos) and now as more professional opportunities come along, I am sharing more in that space too. I think that's one of the most interesting parts of this journey: how making a change in one aspect of your life carries over into other areas, sometimes quite unexpected. I guess that's the main reason why I am drawn to the 'practices' side of open education: I find the shifts really fascinating, and am endlessly curious about how folks got where they are in the open journey.

small steps in 'iterating yourself'

Jennifer - your statement "I find the shifts really fascinating, and am endlessly curious about how folks got where they are in the open journey" resonated with me since I'm very aware of my own journey into the open. I didn't start in the open with Flickr or any of the other tools available, but have iterated toward open and now consciously push myself further into open digital spaces. Thanks for sharing your thoughts here and on Twitter.

I agree that the shifts are subtle but noticible. Once you start being open and see how easy it is to find open license images, you start sharing that information with others and  encouraging them to be open. It is very cool.
