12. I´m a PhD student … in a super formal, controlled
course structure, with all the traditional barriers
that validate or not my progress. …
… So, the solution I found was engaging with the
academic community, as much as I can, through
Blogs, Moocs (from respected universities), Twitter,
FB, LinkId and networks like Academia, etc.
They are my community, my peers, my tutors and
they are from different disciplines, helping me with
different perspectives and with that enrich my
research.
Andreana commenting on ‘The control of your network’, EdTechie blog, 8 February 2016

about by digital and networked
technologies.

digital, networked and open world
3. Enriching research perspectives by
engaging with a community of scholars
