Mike Sosteric created a wiki page What referencing style should I use? in the group Athabasca University Sociology August 15, 2019 - 8:32am

Sociology uses the America Sociological Association referencing style. Use the ASA Style Guide or the ASA Quick Tips document for guidance. We recommend the use of Zotero to manage and format your references.

Mike Sosteric bookmarked Psychedelic drugs promote neural plasticity in rats and flies June 15, 2018 - 12:27pm

Psychedelic drugs may have mind-altering powers in the physical sense, too. A new study has found psychedelics, specifically DOI, DMT, and LSD, can change brain cells in rats and flies, making neurons more likely to branch out and connect with one...

  This is a really interesting article! A relevant book was recently published by Michael Pollan, an American author, activist, journalist, and professor of journalism at UC Berkley, called "How to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression, and Transcendence." This book discusses his and others' research on the effects of LSD and psilocybin on suffering related to depression, addiction, and anxiety. He includes a section outlining the neuroscientific research that is being conducted in this department. If you are interested in this topic, I would highly recommend this book.

Mike Sosteric commented on a bookmark MOOC students comments on what majkes a good xMOOC in the group AU MOOCs, mooc May 24, 2013 - 8:11am

There are some clues in that article on what the "market" will be for MOOCs, and how traditional universities can differentiate themselves. A MOOC is not a serious course, it seems. It is for dilletantes, and information junkies and others with...

Who you calling a pot? :-) I'm just saying, doing it is not the same as being recognized for it. AU had to do a lot of other things, (AU press, etc.,) in order to raise its profile in the university scene. And just because a university like Harvard...

you know I read this today and I thought "university of phoenix." Handing out a "signature" is a long, long, long way from establishing a respected credential.

Mike Sosteric commented on a wiki page titled How long do I have to complete a Sociology course in the group Athabasca University Sociology February 19, 2013 - 8:59am

Hi Kate It is possible. Courses are generally self-paced meaning you can move as fast, or as slow, as you need. If you plan on moving very quickly through a course it is a good idea to give your tutor a heads up and let them know you'll be...

Thanks Terry. A very interesting read. You know, it strikes me that the single most important thing that AU could do to improve its ability to be innovative is to be more supportive of the innovators. There's lot of things that I'd like to do...
