Class Is Cancelled But Learning Continues

II looked forward with eager anticipation to another class session using WIMBA. Even though I was out of town on business, I was going to sign on the Instructional Technology site and plug into WIMBA in my hotel room. Much to my surprise, class was cancelled. I was disappointed but even with this late change of plans, I was learning. For instance, I was working on a Word document and one of my IT classmates, (Gayle), contacted me through "Chat" and announced that class was cancelled. How was she able to perform this action?? I was not logged into WIMBA but I was logged into skimmer. At any rate, I was able to check email from Amy that stated that class was cancelled. Oh well, I utilized the free time well, through researching my next project and playing around on the IT side. So learning continues. Hopefully, we'll get to use WIMBA next week. Happy Halloween!

Submitted IT Contract and Beginning Research

I submitted my contract for class and have begun to research my projects and assignments. I learned about embedding hyperlinks into documents and will be testing that out in an upcoming project. I am researching information on IT as it pertains to the corporate/business case and so far have not found as much data as I had hoped. I will continue to search.

I was so happy to be able to utilize WIMBA for last week's class. It was nice to learn about IT and participate in presentations and projects from the comfort of my home. I will be giving it another shot tonight. Have a great week!

Getting Up to Speed

I made great strides in the class this week. My blogs were added to the class web site and I am working on the other class projects. My next exciting challenge is to enhance my products with gadgets, hyperlinks, sound and pictures. The possibilities are almost endless! So watch out for the latest developments. Have a great weekend and holiday!

Still Trying to Connect With the Class

I am making slow but steady progress in this IT class. Early this morning, I created my first blog although I had to do it under my home email address as I can not (still) access go.Stockton email. I am working through my frustration, however, and learning much. Hopefully, Dr. Ackerman will be able to upload my blog and place it in the appropriate place for this class. Eventually and very soon, I hope, my blog will be enhanced with gadgets, links, and various sorts of devices for your viewing pleasure. Please be patient with me. This blog, like me, is a work in progress.

Trying to Connect to My Class

I am trying to connection to my Instructional Technology class. There are still many roadblocks but I feel I am getting closer. I will be contacting the IT folks once again to find out what is going on. Time races on, however, and I must get a move on. Hopefully, Dr. Ackerman will be able to move my blog to the right place for everyone's viewing pleasure. I'm kind of proud of it because it's my first attempt at blogging. In the near future, I hope to add more enhancements to the blog as I get more knowledgeable of the creative features to blogging. I'm looking forward to it. This blog, like me, is a work in process.
Namaste.

JoAnn Returns to College

Well, I've finally started a blog and it's very exciting. I journal a lot so I will be able to add entries on a regular basis. As for this class, Intro to Instructional Technology, I am still feeling my way. Stockton has me in their system under my old name and I'm having trouble accessing the goStockton portals. But still in all, I am going to try to keep up with this class and hopefully learn something that I can apply to my life and career.
