WEEK 9 – POTCERT – STUDENT ACTIVITIES & OPEN PLATFORMS
The videos were extremely helpful. I was reminded in Lisa’s blog to include modeling and a good rubrics. This is a part of the presentation I have to work on. I am glad I was able to go back and review Diigo. I have Diigolet on my menu bar. I had not used it recently and when I logged in for this assignment I was pleased to see the great links I had already placed in my library. A treasure of information.
I am teaching a new class that is on the community education level. There is no online access for the class, so my class created an email address for all of us. I now get to use the wordpress blog I made last year outside of my supported platforms to enrich their education. And I now have a better idea of how to update the site since taking this course. Good thing I listened last year and took your advise. See I was listening.
Thought I would include this tutorial that my student emailed me. I love when they explore and then I can gain and so can the entire class from their exploring. Love technology.
I can see how an experienced tech person would want to design their own site. But, as a beginner I sure love the ease of setting up a Blackboard site. Then they made adding media so much easier. I would be lost if left to my own designing wanderings. I certainly need a backbone of tools already set up for me.
ON LINE COMMUNICATION
Love playing with the mashup options.
