View from HS-28

I didn’t see a section asking for a post of “Task 12.”  I feel like I do a good job advocating for new technology tools.

As far as the class goes, it was a good class.  I learned some things and most importantly I was pushed to play with things.  I feel that often people don’t get involved because they have no reason to go explore (unless you are prone to doing that anyway . . . I’m looking at you Oman) and this class provides that.

I would like to say that I didn’t really get a good feeling of community with my fellow classmates.  That could just be a result of me a.) taking too long to do things or b.) being comfortable working independently.  But I also think that it is a function of the entire class being online.  I mean, that’s cool and all, but I wonder if it would’ve been a good idea to have an (option) meeting every now and again just to see where people are in the course and show off what they have learned.  I know I wasn’t nearly as actively looking at other people’s blogs as I could have been, and so I probably missed something that was cool.  I miss lots of cool things anyway.
