Class 1 - Class Introduction
This class reviewed the class structure through the syllabus. We also discussed the various assignments that would be completed throughout the semester.
There were a number of Web Links that we discussed. Lois Lindell was gracious enough to make a list of these links as we discussed them and they are listed below:
www.google.com – google your name
http://scholar.google.com - searched with the term distance education, selected an ERIC citation
http://library.uni.edu – use Rod Library Electronic databases to search for an ERIC article found in previous search
http://froogle.google.com/ - explored a PNY 1gig
google map – locate a place with an address
google earth – locate a place with an address – zoom in, rotate, etc. . visit the Grand Canyon. This program actually requires you to download the Google Earth software before running it.
http://www.youtube.com/ - searched for Cannon D by Pachabel played on Guitar
itunes.com
wikipedia.org -- searched for Web 2.0
blog link on data base course home page in WebCT or direct at http://dbined06.blogspot.com/

This is an AWESOME idea to use the blog to augment the class notes.
This is my first experience using a blog in an educational setting. I'm looking forward to seeing the types of applications a blog can add to a class.
I've done a little bit with blogs and I think they are great to have! I'm looking forward to using this as a communication tool in this class!
This is my first time as well with blogs. I have seen them before but have never worked with them. It will be interesting to learn how they work. From what I already know about blogs, I think they could be used in the elementary classroom as a way of communication with parents.
This might be fun experience!
