Learning so much!

I finally got Elluminate installed on my computer and was able to listen to Tuesday’s session. I will comment on that later once I’ve had a chance to review it again. I’m hoping that my webcam will work on Tuesday when we meet again.

I also finished adding the final touches to the video for my bio page. Now I just have to upload it to the site. I loved making the video. There isn’t much there but I played with the program and will continue to do so. I will definitely use this next semester in one of my English classes. I would also like to create a webquest with my students so that is something that I also want to explore while taking this class.

I’m becoming more and more familiar with Google Reader. I like it so far but I still need to figure out all of the components of the program. I have subscribed (or I think I have) to all of the participant’s blogs. I like that I can view the postings and then quickly go directly to a person’s blog. How do I create a folder and put everyone in it without having to click on them individually? Should I have created a folder first? Probably! If anyone knows how, please advise.

I have read all of the blogs and have responded to one so far (yeah!!!). Now that I am moving forward in the use of the course tools I will be spending more time responding to ideas, questions and topics presented by everyone. I look forward to the discussions (or is it “chatting” in computer lingo?)
