\"\"I used Mindmeister to start my plan<\/a> and followed the energy, the drive you experience when you begin something exciting.\u00a0 \u00a0My plan is not just the assignment, but an introduction to a potential third career and perhaps the start of my future job design.\u00a0 I was hooked when reading about \u201cdigital capability\u201d, \u201cdigital leadership\u201d and \u201cdigital entrepreneurship\u201d (Beetham, 2015).\u00a0 It felt like my future of work unfolding, soon to be framed in my digital identify and presence.<\/p>\n

My overall goal is all-encompassing.\u00a0 It includes my contribution to relevant communities as a \u201ccreative citizenship\u201d (Campbell, 2009, p. 3) with credibility and integrity.\u00a0 It also includes being the master of my own domain as an \u201ceffective architect, narrator and curator \u201c and \u201csystem administrator of my digital life\u201d (Campbell, 2009, p. 4).\u00a0 Then, I will craft my digital presence and identity with my future job description in mind.<\/p>\n

In order to accomplish my goal, I must set my expectations for ongoing learning discomfort, which I have already experienced with WordPress setup.\u00a0 And that is ok because I am taking into account my \u201cdigital wellness\u201d (Beetham, 2015) as a first step in my plan.\u00a0 Knowing when to stop and task-switch, and to get around the rabbit-hole when exploring will be critical in managing my attention and engagement throughout the program.<\/p>\n

Additionally, I will spend some time reflecting on who I want to be online and what I represent (Schryver, 2013) so my contributions are relevant in this world of limited digital attention span.\u00a0 Using the \u201ccritical consumption\u201d (Rheingold, 2010) literacy when writing my personal author description will be essential to my digital identity.<\/p>\n

My qualities as a natural connector and network builder are serving me well, both personally and professionally.\u00a0 I am naturally curious and inquisitive when learning new things.\u00a0 My necessity for \u201cdigital wellbeing\u201d (Beetham, 2015) is rewarded with more energy when I step away from my screen.<\/p>\n

As I continue to experiment with WordPress, develop skills such as rapid scanning of relevant information, assessing the “reliability and credibility” (Ryberg & Georgsen, 2010, p. 7) of various sources, organizing the flow of information and critically discerning various perspectives (Ryberg & Georgsen, 2010), practicing \u201cdigital competences\u201d (Ryberg & Georgsen, 2010) will be my next developmental focus.<\/p>\n

To capture my progress to date, I created a DIDP scorecard to keep my learning and improvement to the forefront.\u00a0 My evaluation tool is strategically positioned on my main screen so I can populate my DIDP learning objectives and periodically feel good about my learning progress. \u00a0 I also have my checklist on a post-it for additional readings from the Writing Center<\/a> so I can master APA!\u00a0 \u00a0 \"\"<\/p>\n
