Reflection Time

It is hard to believe another eight weeks have already passed!  One of the things I found helpful from this class was the blog posts.  Knowing that anyone could read what I write has helped me be more focused and attentive in my writing.  I appreciated having a topic to discuss or a question to answer.  It was interesting to see how others interpreted the question or topic and see the different ideas everyone had.  The one thing I know I want to do more of is responding to the comments on my own blog page.  I think that would help the discussion further and promote more of a sense of collaboration.  I would read my comments, but I rarely responded. 

The digital story was a fun and creative assignment.  While it was a challenge, I love how the each aspect was broken down into steps.  This not only helped me complete the assignment, but gave me ideas for how I would broach this type of project in a classroom.  Having walked through each of the steps, I understand better how the process works.

As others have mentioned, I wish I would have had more time for the infographic.  I had to complete some research and create a rough draft which took some time.  I then experimented with several different tools to find the right fit for what I had in mind.  While I am pleased with the final result, I think I would have benefited from having an additional week to complete the assignment.  

I enjoy looking back and seeing all the new things I have learned and experienced.  Now time to rest up for the start of a whole new set of learning!
