Final Thoughts

For my key assignment I chose to create a blog for my co-workers and I's classrooms. Our students art work doesn't always make it home. The site is primarily for our students parents, but there is information that is primarily for students. Local art events, local art center, museums and other university art programs and blogs. Here's a link to my art blog http://artwarriorstsjh.blogspot.com/

As for this class I enjoyed learning about how to create a blog. That happened to be one of my goals for this year and I love meeting my goals. I also love the new powerpoint option in the Prezi website. It's a new and innovative way to create a presentation. I still don't like Wiki's I don't agree with a site like wikipedia. Although I can now see the use for Wiki's such as collaborations between co-workers. At our school it's used for our professional learning communities (PLC's). I still don't like that some one can change my opinion if they don't agree though. When I first heard there was a text for this class I was not supper excited. Surprisingly though I really got a lot out of the text. It wasn't a boring read like I thought it would be. I also enjoyed learning about "my delicious" and the RSS google reader.

Despite my strong opinion on Wiki's I learned a lot of new fun technology to use. Anytime you learn new information all the work is worth it. Still I'm happy to have another class done on my way to master success.
