Course Comments

The linked courses have been very helpful in supplying additional content information. Some of the links provided procedural guidance.
The technology assignments were very helpful in providing the opportunity to work with the skills in graduated steps.
The tie-in with children's literature has been evident in the motivation the digital story supplied for researching potential topics. I learned a great deal of information that I would not have known otherwise.
I found the process of preparing a script for a digital story to be intriguing with regard to the challenge of being creative with a tightly edited script. It became important to utilize the capacity of the photos themselves to supply both descriptive and content elements.
I would be interested in taking another linked course, and I would definitely recommend this particular linked course to others.
I think that having examples from our class to show the future course participants will be helpful to them.
I believe that offering the technology component online could be successful, but I think periodic opportunities to meet on campus to share concerns and successes would be very helpful for those who are not as "computer savy."

Burning a cd

I tried unsuccessfully to burn a data disc. I thought at first that it had something to do with my personal computer so I saved the story files to my flash drive and tried again in the cite lab. I continued to have problems so I switched to the other disc and experienced success. Evidently, I'm still a work in progress! I used Windows XP.
