Summary

Wow, what I have discovered on this journey is that sometimes little things can turn into big things, to elaborate, what I thought was a simple assignment that I could breeze through in the end was a terrible mistake. I have enjoyed it but these exercises were quit time consuming. My favorite discovery was the playlist.com still listening to my play list and loving it and animato. In terms of my lifelong learning goals this has helped me to get organized and realize that there are more tools on the internet that can be utilized  to make me a more productive educator. What I did not care for that much was the RSS feeds they and the wikis, just not a fan. What I take away from this assignment is that technology offers us endless possibilities and ways of retrieving information, sharing information, presenting information, and tools to enhance our learning and teaching abilities and so much more. We must be proactive in our pursuit of new technologies and remain innovators of technology. As teachers we must realize that technology is our friend and only a hinderance when we are unwilling to learn. Technology is not perfect nor without flaw. I have had to log into D2L more than thirty times in one day or had to wait for it to become available which slowed me down but I have finished.  I am now a part of the Web 2.0 social networking site so I can keep up with what's new.What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey. I think this assignment works well the way it was designed. I have explored a lot and can share what I have learned with my colleagues, friends, students, and family members.
