Yippie! Yahoo! Ta-Da! You name it! What an technology adventure this has been. I choose adventure because it had it's ups and downs for me. I was really gung ho for a while. I stayed on top of things and referred to my discoveries with others often. Then I hit a plateau. I just couldn't get over the stump. I finally accepted the fact that not all tools will excite me the same way as others do and I forged on.
I wasn't looking forward to the whole blogging thing, at first. I am now pretty used to it and understand its purpose for this experience. Do I think I'd ever keep one myself? I highly doubt it. I just don't have that much to say. I really enjoyed learning about Widgets; I had heard about them but never really understood what they were. I also loved making my own home page. It was very hands-on and personal. Flickr has also been a fabulous addition to my tech arsenal. I use it all the time now. I enjoyed when we had some freedom to play with other tools on our own. I really like some of the ones I found, such as Simply Box and TED. Ooh ooh! Screencast was another great one!
I think this format for learning was brilliant! It allowed people to play at their own pace and without pressure; yet, I also felt supported if I got stuck on something. I would definitely participate in this kind of experience again. I would love if access to the site would remain open. I have already found myself referring to it for things I needed to find again (I guess I haven't got the whole Delicious Thing down yet.)
Thank you technology coaches for leading the way! And thanks to those of you brave people that chose to read my babbling!
