What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey? First and foremost, learning much more about the concept and philosophy of 2.0. Wikis were a mystery to me and it's fun to explore their use. Also I was aware of web-based applications but it was great to work a little with the word processing application to compare it somewhat with WORD.
How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals? A professional lifelong learning goal is to be more knowledgeable about what is new in technology, how to use programs, how to solve minor technical problems. This class has given me the start for this. I have bookmarked all of the sites you have in your "things" so I will have what I need to continue with these programs.
Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you? I was at times surprised that I could eventually figure some things out, even when the steps were not explained very well. Also, I am unexpectedly interested in pursuing the use of these tools.
What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept? The concept is excellent! I like the idea of playing around with these applications. However, I wish we would have met more times. And/Or maybe we could have a class blog or class Blackboard discussion page so we all could post questions, problems, etc. and we all (and you) would be able to respond. Many times, as you know, many of us have the same question. A virtual classroom, as it were. Otherwise, well worth it and well worth offering it many more times.
Oh, and, about the MP3 player that was promised...
And last but not least…If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again chose to participate? Yes, I definitely would!
