Week 2

Reflections on today...
  • It was wonderful to learn new terminology like "Tag Cloud", "Word Cloud" and "Folksonomies."
  • I enjoyed telling others about Microsoft's new Surface Computers and discussing applications for education with it.
  • Rosemary shared a link about a new technology called Siftables that was very interesting. Click here for the link.

Week 1

Goal: I enrolled in this series of training sessions to expand my experiences with Web 2.0 tools such as blogs, Wikis, RSS's and virtual environments. As a result of my EDLD 5306 course, I was first initiated into the use of these tools, but my time spent using them was limited because of the parameters of the online class.

Waht I've Learned:
  • I learned how to create and add an avatar to my blog.
  • I learned how to add a ClustrMap to my blog.
