On Tuesday night, Nov. 22, our web conference began on time and was beneficial. The discussion was about this week’s assignment and the collaborative PSA that is due in week 5. Dr. Abernathy explained that the goal of our projects is to use the technology tools so that we are able to model their use for teachers as well as incorporate the use of the tools into our instructional lesson plans. Our knowledge should be shared so that teachers and students benefit as we prepare our students for the jobs of the future. We also have the goal to work collaboratively as we complete our course work.
Dr. Abernathy reminded us that our wiki is our eportfolio, and that it is a weekly requirement to post a reflection of a reading quote on the discussion board. We should also reply to one other person’s quote. I’m discovering that I am becoming familiar with specific names through the discussion boards and the web conferences.
Dr. Abernathy explained that our project for this week does not have to be a video podcast. The assignment is to create an audio podcast using the audacity program. She also gave an explanation for the use of descriptive tags to be added to the uploaded podcast. The tags are search words used by others to find specific information on the web. She reminded us to also be careful with knowing the correct file extensions when transferring files and documents from one digital tool to another. I googled file extensions for the Windows Live Movie Maker and found some valuable resources. I’ve included a link to one of the resources below.
Our class will have a commencement at the Sheila Humphrey Sports Center once we have completed all of our course work and earned our Master’s Degree. I’m truly thankful for my faithful, supportive husband and my great, priceless friends who are giving me the encouragement and strength to continue this endeavor.
