Friends, it has been a really long time since I used my brain powers (for good, not evil). I think I can feel my grey matter turning... grey. Not good!
In an effort to tune back in to the "real world", and prepare myself for an inevitable return (sigh.) I thought I'd look into some learning. Why not take a TEFL course when back in Australia? (for those playing at home, Teaching English as a Foreign Language)
More immediately, and realistically, I have been getting into courses through iTunes University. Astronomy? Yes please! The Science of Happiness? Sure! Calculus refresher? How refreshing!
I'm hoping that downloading these courses - and actually doing them - will stem my inevitable decline...
Have you tried any online learning? Any recommendations?

DeleteI really like Coursera, I've taken a couple of courses on there now - currently taking Animal Behaviour with the University of Melbourne!
