In this class, and in a philosophical view that reflective practice leads to better practice, you are asked to work openly. However, at no times is anyone required to share a anything you make. You can choose to syndicate your post, keep it less broacasted and share it among people who follow you, password protect posts, or even keep them private.

You set your level of privacy on the open web. That is a major part of the point. When you use other networks, THEY and not YOU control how privacy set. Naturally students taking for credit must share assignments but these to can be password protected.

Yet I do want you to at least explore the benifits of open pedagogy even if you lurk. Follow along and watch as rich feedback loops and just in time teaching occur as your classmates become the community and the community becomes the curriculum.
