Upon signing up for EDUC 573-B I had never had an online course. However, having taken many computer/technology courses during the pursuit of my bachelors degree, being the colleague that fixes tech issues, and by dabbling in computer/tech repair I figured this would be n easy task for a person of my self perceived talents. My thoughts couldn't have been any farther from reality than a person thinking that there is a money tree farm owned by the federal government. The first issue was learning how to navigate the site and determining due dates for assignments. After stumbling through the site I felt a sense of accomplishment. Now was the time to begin the assignments. PowerPoint, exams, blogs, screencast, etc. this is not going to be that difficult for someone like me, was the thought going through my mind. Wow! Was I ever wrong. I spent countless hours emailing Dr. Rubin, working on assignments through trial and error, connecting to fellow educators, researching how to videos/sites, and more. I now know how little I knew at the beginning of this class and by learning how to do these activities, my knowledge of technology has been brought up to speed. This knowledge will allow me to continue to pursue more knowledge and stay up to date on current technological advances.
