today i enrolled in a digital business school

Today I enrolled in the digital business school…

I applied after the virtual information evening…

…using my CV, Facebook and LinkedIn pages as testimony…

Note – We do virtual information evenings now

I also did an asynchronous digital interview, that was reviewed by the MBA director….

Note – We do this now

I received a welcome email, one click and the option to use a university, Facebook or other login details….

And also I registered how I wanted updates

Welcome to Griffith University, ……………………………..

I also registered how I wanted to receive academic points for speedy completion, good grades and alike….and what I wanted to spend them on courses, carbon credits, residential courses, discounts at coffee shops to encourage me to network with local students…….

More points for faster completion, higher grades, student get student…

My first task was to record a meet your colleagues video…to help my networking….

Note – We have the LinkedIn group now

This also linked to the Griffith MBA LinkedIn page – so I was already connected to my colleagues and alumni…

Note – We do this now

I also took a look around the Griffith MBA program site…it had useful tools and resources…

Note – We do this now

Sustainability & Systems Thinking

Understanding Systems Thinking Part 1

Module 1 Module 2 Module 3 Module 4 Module 5

I took my first course, the content was presented in a familiar format and it was easy to post comments and move to the next module…

After completing each piece, I had a read of how much I had completed of the module, how many points I had collected, and time left…

One of the great things is the learning activities are broken into 15 minute chunks so I can pace my learning to my breaks and free time…it enables me to plan better

Note these dynamically link to my LinkedIn page

All the assessment is authentic, submitted digitally and knits together so when I graduate I have a suite of useful reports and analysis

Note – We do this now

It’s a ladder of learning too…I can leave at numerous points and still receive a degree… a certificate, diploma or masters…also I receive digital credentials….

Course 1

Course 5

Course 2 Course 3 Course 4

These digital credentials also appear on my web profile…

We get regular video time with the lecturer…

Throughout the engagement, we earn academic rewards….

Note – We do this now

It’s a 21st century business school….

Before I graduate I am going to the University for an intensive course to complete my studies….
