Today, September 15th is International Dot Day. It’s a day to join others around the world to “Make a mark and see where it takes you.” It’s day to discuss how we can “Make a mark, and make it matter.” It’s a day to consider and plan for how our words and actions have a ripple effect on the world.
Enjoy this animated video of Peter Reynold’s book The Dot: Narrated/Animated The Dot Book How will you “make your mark?” Try it — in any way that inspires you.

Hi Sheri. I did not use dots, but did create a post today that mirrors the idea of your article. I used the idea of exploding fireworks to show how one person launches an idea, such as through a blog article. As that idea explodes through your social media it reaches a constellation of people. Then, some of these people share your idea, sort of like new blasts of fireworks spread from the original one. That reached even more people. A third, and fourth blast, then reach even more people. Every day each of us has the potential to launch an ideas and you and many in #clmooc and other on-line networks are doing that.
[…] It will soon be International Dot Day and here’s some fun with dots. Just so you can make a few dots before you create your own Dot Day Make a Mark and Make it Matter! […]
