Learning On The Go!
Spring is here, which means summer is not too far away. The days will be longer and the summer calendar will fill up. Have you thought about learning a new subject or skill?
I am all for being a life long learner. STTACC believes that “participating in learning opportunities should be an ongoing process that continues throughout an individual’s career”. With mobile devices connected to the internet and many online education sites (or MOOC – Massive Open Online Courses), we have the perfect opportunity to plugin and learn something new.
If you could pick a skill or subject to learn,
what would you choose?
Take these online course anytime, anywhere! Whether you listen to a TED Talk on the bus ride home or watch a course as you do chores before bed, online courses providing convenient access to course materials. Here is a list of free and almost free online learning web sites (many which also have companion mobile apps):
STTACC also lists some Professional Development options including scholarships and tuition waivers.
