Today is our last class. Like everybody else I cannot believe that I have made it . I t was a big challange. Like we all know our biggest "enemy" was time It was great to work with the students in our class. They are one bunch that I will not easily forget.Being in Sandys class was a real learning experience. Although I still have a lot to learn I really got to love the the research tasks. It opened a new world for me. Although the classes end today Iwould like to go on learning. I will also apply my knowledge at school or wherever I can help. Sandy was stricked, but she was patient and helpfull. She has a way of carrying information over very well. Sometimes a bit to fastl, because she likes to see results. On the other hand it keep us alert and on our toes. The aim is to listen and pay attention. The class was challenging yet enjoyable. May God bless you.
Thank you

Wikis

We were working on our wikis again. Sandy showed us how to external and internal linking . It was a little confusing,but after some practicing I could manage it.I just need to keep practicing. We were a little frustrated because our things would not fall into place,but we kept trying and we eventually found a solution for our problem. We were overjoyed. We still have a lot of work on our wiki,but we will manage to do it.I feel good about todays lecture. I am not going to give up.

holiday mood

Schools closed today. I did not feel like coming to class,because I am tired and also in a holiday mood. We worked on our wikis. We also looked for more information for our wikis. Sandy give us two new websites to look at. wetpaint.com and wikispaces.She also showed us internal linking as well as external linking. I am missing Denise today,because she is always in class.

New challenge

We created our wikis on Thursday. Sandy took us through step by step. I sometimes don`t know where she got all the pasients from because we are a very challenging group. We are working on a research project, but we are still feeling our way through our subheadings.We decided to do some research this coming week for our project.The advantage to work in a group is if one forgets the others members remember. You still need to pay attention because the members depend on one another. I like the idea of the wiki and will defnitely encourage out educaters to help their learners to create their own wikis.
thank you.

older and a little wiser

I felt much better on Thursday, 9 September. I t was also my sisters birthday. Mine is 12 September. I don`t feel any older, but I know I look older. We recievd our essays and web evaluation tests today. I am pleased with my essay results. It was very hard work for me,because I had to do a lot of planning, writting and rewritting.I was no always sure.weather I chose the proper information to cover the specific topic.The web evaluation still need lots of practicing,but I am glad all the tests are over. The good news is that I have learned a lot during the past two years.We still need to work on ou wikipedia. It is difficult to find a suitable topic, but we are getting together soon then we can decide which topic is suitable.WIKI! HERE WE COME!

web evaluation tesr

We wrote a web evaluation test on 2 September. I was not looking forward to the test. I always think there will not be enough time to search for answers.I feel I did not have enough time to practice to be able to find the answers quickly. The guideline to a evaluation web came to late,because I was using completely different guidelines.Because working on computers is not part of my daily work, I need much more practice before I could search for new information on the web.I am positive that I will after more practice I will be able to master the skill much better to web evaluation, following some of the questions that Sandy has asked. It is not difficult one just need to practice on a regular basis.

26 August

I was absent on 26 August. I felt down and out sick! I don`t know what was wrong. I have been to the doctor and he put me off for two days.I cannot afford to become sick now. I cannot afford to fall behind with my assignments. I need to get better and fall in again. Sandy sent me the email about the Wikis lecture. I read through it, but abviously one understand it better when you are in the class. The first two pages sound like another blog. but as one go along it sounded more like a group effort I need to hear from the other students what Wiki is all about. Today, Monday I am feeling a little better. I just wish the strike could end, because it also put a lot of stress on us.
