Link drop: to myself!

A couple of weeks ago, I got invited to write an article for a multiauthor blog entitled MOOC News and Reviews, all about these newfangled online free course thingummijigs.  Well, it seemed like a good opportunity to continue writing about these things without constantly boring my language-orientated readers here with it.

My first article has just gone online, in which I discuss the benefits to the learner of having a good old-fashioned whinge once in a while, and the barriers that online discussion places to the student who feels confused or dissatisfied.
