Last Friday I downloaded Firefox. I really like the SeaMonkey add-ons. I’ve chosen dicitonaries in other languages and I downloaded the Italian one. I hope to use it more frequently once I get more time. Next, I’d like to add on Forecastfox to get the international weather.
Week #6 & #7: Time for Discovery!
Thanks for these times to ask questions and get more help. I wish I had more time at work to explore and do the exercises. The various sessions were great cause I was forced to sit for 1 hour at a time to try something new with the help of the ETG Group.
Week #10: Gaming & Virtual Environments
I went to the gaming session with Kelly, Amanda and Krista. It was quite fascinating to see what is available out there. I’m not really into games cause I don’t seem to have the patience and time to spend on them. My son loves playing all of the sports games which he would spend a lot of time on if we allow him to. I must admit that I do play a little of Spider Solitaire from time to time. I really liked watching everyone dance to the Dance Revolution game. I think I’m going to purchase it cause it would be a great game to play with family and friends. The virtual world of Second Life looks very interesting as well. I need to spend more time exploring it. I’m trying to figure out how it can be applied for teaching purposes. Virtual worlds are pretty mind boggling but I do appreciate the chance to learn about them through Learning 2.0. Thanks again to everyone!
Week #4: Wikis
A wiki is a great tool that everyone can contribute to. I prefer pbwiki cause I like the layout and find it’s easier to use. We have a wiki for our department entitled: Resource Management. It’s great, everything you need seems to be right at your fingertip!
Week #9: Facebook
What a great opportunity! Thanks! Today I learned all about Facebook. It is an amazing way to stay in touch with family and friends. I enjoyed creating my own avatar which I’m sure everyone will recognize. Anyways, today the sun is shining brightly and I hope to enjoy the outdoors this weekend. Glad winter is finally over.
