Since class began on May 4,
For EIT I have:
- Started reading both textbooks on my Kindle (something else I'm trying to learn at the same time). Both books are very well written, inspiring and interesting...something rare in required reading.
- Created a WikiSpace: jkies.wikispaces.com
- Created a Twitter account: jenniekies
- Created this blog
- Spent time watching TED Talks (my favorite one is embedded on my WikiSpace)
- Contributed to discussions on the class website
- Contributed to the class wiki (not the Dede topics yet, but I've started reading them)
- Found out that I was asleep when I was supposed to be participating in a chat with the class (I go to bed at 9 PM)
For MPP, I have:
- Started reading the required text...painful. I'm sure the underlying information is useful, but the presentation is so dull it's hard to determine what's important and inspiring.
- Tried out different online presentation tools: see list on Wiki
- Contributed to discussions
- Made a final presentation proposal
When it's written out like that, it doesn't seem quite so frenetic. Hmmmm...lists are good.

LOVE your list, I checked off what I had done against yours, so I must be doing ok...I am a little frustrated that there is no "place" where there are firm dates as to when things are due, (if there is, please clue me in!?)
ReplyDeleteWow, Jennie.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are taking this class seriously. Did you buy the Kindle for the class?
I like your wiki. You have included a variety of great resources. Are you going to use Animoto with your students next year?
I look forward to watching the TED Talk you suggested.
Wow! I am so impressed that you were able to get it all down; it does seem so simple in a list. I am feeling very lost and scattered, and being a random person that loves disorganized chaos, this is a very new feeling for me. :)
