My day in Space

... That is in the unknown computer world....

Today I have started my blog.

The assignment that is due tomorrow *cough cough {at least it is done on time} stated that I had to create different gadgets and fill out my blog. My first issue, what is a "gadget"? and where do I find it?? Thankfully, my friend Josh helped me out on this one otherwise I would have been lost. So I managed to click on buttons and somehow run into this thing called "gadget".

I do believe that I may use "gadget", now that I know where it is. There are some interesting different "gadgets" that caught my eye. However, for now I only put in the About Me gadget and one that helps people subscribe to my blog {if that is what people do to blogs}.

The second assignment {which was actually the first I just did it second because it seemed harder} was to subscribe to a multitude of different blogs. These blogs are created by the rest of my ECMP 355 class {HOLLA!!}, as well as the ECMP 455 class and a selection of other blogs of interest. So, where is this button to subscribe? I found it. But how is it that I use this button. I ended up figuring out that all I have to do is put the URL's from the blogs I want to subscribe to in it! HA! Didn't I feel silly after that!

I have come to the conclusion, after today, that this may not be as hard as I think. As long as I have people here to help me along with the steps {finding the buttons}. Hopefully I become a little more comfortable with this, as I feel that a blog would be quite useful in the classroom.

After all this, a good day! We will see about tomorrow.

  1. Great reflection. I love how you walked through and described your learning. I trust you can apply these same principles of learning to the rest of the course and more importantly your career as a teacher and learner.
