Podcast

I finished my podcast today. It's still not perfect but it was the best I could with my background on technology. I am having a hard time blogging. I guess I am a person that rather text or facebook. I don't know what the right answer is .

Online Courses

Not all students are suited to this type of learning.Along with not all subjects are best taught through this method of education.The older the student is the more likely they will find success with distance learning.The older students who are non-traditional students have motivation, flexibility, and can be a self-advocating.These older students are usually different than traditional college students; most of them are professionals and have families.Distance learning requires students to be more focused, have time management skills and are able to work independently and with others which younger students have not mastered. I have learned through experience that if I were to have taken an online course when I was a lot younger I would of probably wouldn't have completed or wait until the last minute. Very interesting thought. Have a great afternoon!

New Year, New Class??????

As I was the reading the assignments for this new class, it was like reading a foreign language. RSS feeds??? I am not sure if I am doing what or I am suppose to be doing. I have set up my wiki pages, but I would like to work on assignments ahead of time so I don't get behind since this is a foreign concept for me.
