All of my favorite Things! Done.
I wasn't excited about this assignment at first. I knew that I have a hard time keeping up with things (like the pun?) like this. I did lag behind at the end but I found that I learned some things along the way. I have a hard time blogging because I talk way too much. You'll notice at the beginning my blogs were very lengthy. This took up a lot of time to make sure that what I wanted to say was said and was understandable. I realized that reading the same kind of activity from everyone in class gets old even if they have something different to say. I don't feel as though this was a true outlook on how blogging can be in someone life. Blogging and Google Reader has opened me up to reading other friends blogs, instead of just logging in when they post it to Facebook. Some people have a lot more to say than what other social networking sites give them time to say. I just might try blogging about something more interesting after all.
I learned that while there are many sites out there to help you accomplish things I like to keep one site that I use the most for many different things. Have you heard that I love Google? I also learned that I am knowledgeable in quite a few things and was able to complete with ease. Some assignments kept me searching for more info. Web 2.0 was one of those. I just couldn't grasp how it worked and how it was different. Then once I understood I couldn't help but keep learning about it. I also found that I like the Common Craft guys. I even follow them on YouTube now.
I hope to take away some of the learning objectives from the blogs, like how to find good resources and how to store them for easier access. My goal in all of this is to not be overwhelmed by all that I find and keep the good stuff and know how to find it when I want it, instead of searching over and over and repeating myself.
Blogging didn't turn out to be to bad after all. What an experience to say that I had to do all of this my first year of Master's classes. I'm sure I can now impress my husband the IT professional with some technology knowledge.
