I started the new semester and had to write a blog (that is one of the things the class is about) about what I was expecting to learn this semester. I didn’t quite know what to write since the title of the class really didn’t tell me about anything specific we would be doing in the class. Here is what I wrote in ariset (the blog we are using for the class) that first night:
Considering I’m not quite sure what this class is all about, I guess I could say that I want to learn more about Garage Band, Podcasting, and Wikis. I have played with Garage Band some on my computer, but have never really spent enough time with it to get a finished product. Since it was mentioned that Mac users would use Garage Band, I guess now would be a good time to learn more. Podcasting… because I’ve never done it and don’t know how. I don’t even have any idea of how podcasting could/would be used in a kindergarten class. Lastly wikis… because I have no idea what this is. I’ve heard of Wikipedia, so I’m guessing that is a wiki, but other than that, I’m clueless.
