Where do I stand?

Anne Fox ApS www.annefox.eu

I have ticked all the statements in module 1-benchmarks 1 and feel quite surprised that I can do so many things that I could not do before. I am also quite confident now as I did not think that I myself

was a good online learner.

I was pretty surprised to see how much has been covered in the first three weeks

and how much I have actually learnt. I feel more confident with my ICT skills

than I did before and I love making knew discoveries and trying them out.

I found the flexibility of work, the work with my fellow peers

and the assignments all rewarding, enjoying and really

worthwhile.

I have to say that in pairs especially when me and xxxx arranged a skype chat things

really went smoothly and they were really fun… it was nice to put a face to a name and I am looking forward to doing more

of such things.It’s been an eye-opener certainly

to see the things we’ve done listed in one place.
