Then and now [2]

I am involved in another MOOC that is currently in the pipeline. This course — my brain child, as it was described at a working group meeting yesterday — is for prospective doctoral students, especially those coming from underrepresented backgrounds. It is exciting to see how it is taking shape, but the whole process is giving me a lot to reflect on.
