POPSSome Brighter Bike Ideas ... Good Safety Tips? Here were a couple of bike reflector and light ideas I thought were pretty unique. #1 Have you ever used this reflective type of tape on your bike? Does it work for you? Do you think it helps being seen when you're on the road? #2 How about this throw back from the 90's - neon lights on your bike. I remember my boy Jason, hooking up this idea. This was SO COOL back in the day. How exciting to think about adding this onto our bikes today. That would be neat. To have a bike that was cooler than the cars on the road ... priceless. Or even to look like you have light-sabers attached to you bike.

POPSSome Advice on Biking to Work These are some pretty good comments about commuters and biking to work. I would agree with most of these. I would also hope you are able to have a shower at work once you get there. OR, at least give yourself about 15 minutes to sit and cool off before you start your shift. And Christy has suggested have some alcohol wipes to clean your body. The alcohol acts as a coolant as it evaporates on your skin, and the wipes will help you clean up - in case you get a bit 'ripe' from the ride. This article is definitely a good read.

POPSIndividual Learnscope Project - Learning Facilitation & Design of Synchronous Learning events
I was lucky to be one of 6 individuals to be successful in gaining a grant via the NSW Learnscope Individual project scheme. I enrolled in 3 Certificates - Synchronous Faciliation; Synchonous Design and then the Capstone Certificate. The first 2 certs were 6 weeks in length and took me on an intensive learning curve. Each week generally consisted of * Readings of designated chapters or * Postings in discussion reflecting on that reading and other participants comments * A 2 hour live virtual event where we met synchronously in an 'Elluminate' room, we engaged in activities, discussed content & issues, reflected, gave examples etc Each week was engaging and put into practice content activities * Reflective postings * And in the Design we had to create examples of models and post for all to see & share for the next weeks live session. Terrific learning model & I learnt sooo much from Barbara & Jenny at Insynch as well as my fellow students. Loved every minute! :-)
