ED 520 Blog 2

This weeks learning was a little on the uneventful side. Because we covered search engines in the last class in such detail the thought of it alone is enough to bore me. (Not you fault John, Louie was excessive with it!) Also, as far as the Wikipedia debate is concerned... I really could care less. I have no personal peference to the site at all. Yes I do use it however I would not use it as a credible source for a meaningful assignment. I would also not let my students use it as a research reference. Wikipedia like global warming, is something that can be dabated on for days. Personally, it is not worth my time. Till next week!

ED 520 blog 1

This week was not very new to me. I have had to evaluate websites before so the concept was old. However, it was interesting to look at all of the different types of evaluation tools out there. With that said I look forward to introducing these tools to my students so that they can do some of the leg work for me. It takes a lot of time to find credible resources out there. They students will also learn responsibility of finding what is credible and what is not.

Thank God... The Last Blog!

A light at the end of the tunnel. These last few weeks have been straight from hell! I have had no idea of where I was going or what I was doing. With each project came a big headache and a lot of beer. (The headache was not from the beer!)

With that said.... I have learned a lot! I know how to protect myself from potential disasters and I even know how to purchase my own computer without the help of a sales representative. All of a sudden I feel so grown up!
