The 23 Things for Professional Development course ran during Summer 2011. It was split into weeks with one or more Things allocated per week. Participants wrote a discursive blog post for each ‘Thing’ or part Thing to evidence completion of each item. Where a Thing or week comprised of multiple aspects I have occasionally split a Thing over multiple posts.
As I did the programme somewhat out-of-order and in time what my CPD23 posts relate to will not be obvious(!) the below is an index post essentially of what each Thing was linked to my entry for it on this blog.
Yes, I’m in Xmas blog tidy-up mode!
