Below is a map of all the connections and nodes I made this past week. Due to the fact that all four of my classes are online most connections were not in person. I was surprised by the in person connection because it is very rare that it happens. I do not have many friends in summer classes but so happen to have one friend studying for the MCAT. We both spent the day together completing our individual work at a coffee shop. Some classes have more discussions and connections than the others just due to what the professor has assigned. The zoom meeting comes from a major group project whereas the questions over Mattermost come from a small discussion with a group member. I am not very surprised by the small amount of nodes on my poster as all classes are online. If this was a regular semester in person the map would be much larger with lots more connections and nodes added.

I chose this module mainly because I enjoy more creative work. I mentioned in module 1 that as a creative person if there is an assignment that involves anything creative I will most likely choose it. I was also interested to see how online summer courses affect my discussions and face to face relationships. I know that during the school year with in person classes I would have many nodes added on but I struggled to even think of 4 for this past week. I learnt that my networked learning is very minimal and that online learning creates less meaningful relationships. I also learnt that I do enjoy in person learning more just because I value these in person relationships so heavily.
