The filming is done!
Filming went great this morning. We had 4 volunteers and we walked through 5 different sets. Emergency Scene Management, Choking, CPR, Severe Bleeding, and Slings.
I did not really have much guidelines for the volunteers to follow, since all of them are trained First Responders, however the filming went well anyways. 5 different sets, a couple times through each and done in just over an hour. Pretty good!
Jenelle and I will work on the clips and putting in instructions later this week.

ECMP 355
In class today we were presented with the following questions prompted by Jackie and Dani's comments on their blogs.
I feel as though I should comment on this topic because I do feel strongly about how this class is moving forward.
First off, my situation. I am in my fourth year and taking six classes, I have experience taking a class through Athabasca.
1.Does the fact that one student sees the nature of online learning less social than the other simply a personality issue or is there something about the experience?
- I feel that everyone takes something different from each experience. I may not grasp a lot of content from this class because it is a lot to work with, but look! I can make a blog! It is up to everyone what they take out of the online learning what they can. This is the same with an online class and one that is face to face.
2. How do we get support? How do you get help in other course?
- I find that we get great support in this class. Dean, I am sorry for emailing you ALL the time! haha. I do find it difficult sometimes because I do not know how to accurately describe my issues without showing what is wrong. This is quite difficult for me because I am new to all this technology stuff.
There were two other questions, but I liked these questions.
As someone who is new to technology, I found this course had TOO much to do. I realise that that there is so much content that we need to cover in the semester, however I had a lot of issues working with it. I think everything went by real fast, and I do not completely comprehend all the topics. I find this a negative about the class.

Podcasts
ASHA
Podcast 11: Justin Roberts promotes hearing health in children 11:29 29/08/2008 Interviews with people making news in the professions of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology
Justin Robers promotes the safety of personal audio devices.
I think that this is very important, by showing that there are "cool" people that are concerned about those with hearing and speech communication problems. This has become a topic of interest to me through my EPSY class on communication disorders; a very interesting topic, very broad.
Podcast 13: The Value of Early Intervention for Late Talking Children 12:42 14/10/2008 Speech-language pathologist Rhea Paul and child psychologist Leslie Rescorla discuss recent research on the persistence of language weaknesses at age 17 years in late talking children. Principles of early intervention from ASHA’s recent policy documents are highlighted.
This is my educational podcast. Leslie talks about how students who are slow to talk, sometime will not need help with a language disorder, just maybe different language skills than those who did not have issues with language development at an early age. Very interesting podcast from ASHA.

Challenge!!!
Hey Everyone!!
Ok, so I came up with a brilliant idea for my mentoring and I challenged them with a math question. They just finished covering Pythagorean Theorem, and I came across this question in one of my math classes so I figured I would see if they could get it. I also figured, hey why not challenge you guys!!! Let's see who gets this first the high school students or the university ones!!! Good Luck!!!
The question is: The perimeter of an isosceles triangle {2 sides are equal and the two angles at the base are equal} ABC with AB=BC is 128 inches. The altitude {height of the triangle which is perpendicular (90 degree angle) to the base ( and in the case of an isosceles triangle, hits at the midpoint of the base)} BD is 48 inches. What is the area of the triangle??

Major Project Update
Filming Begins and Volunteers have been rounded up!!!
9:00 Friday March 20th, we will begin filming at St. John Ambulance in Regina. This proves to be an interesting weekend.
Also, Lucky for me, Jenelle Kresek has decided to join me and help out with the project.

Tech Task #12
The video I picked for this Tech Task was Garth Brooks "Standing Outside the Fire". Now I realise that this specific video does not have the best picture, however I was having difficulties finding another on youtube that was better.
This video uses many different clips and camera angles put together to tell a story. It is one of those pictures you must see for yourself to believe the power that it can tell. I get tears in my eyes every time I watch it.
