D#2.0, HW#8 – Reflection

31 01 2010

I have already learned alot from this class.
I have never used mindmeister or animoto. I also really like the features on mindmeister. Its a great learning tool and I hope to use it frequently this semester with all of my classes.
I love animoto its a really great website and idea. Its a fun way to share important things and people in your life. I have already showed a dozen people both websites and they agree. I am truly amazing when people are frequent blog posters. Some blogs I visit have multiple postings per day with images and paragraphs of text for each. I cannot image how much effort some of my favorite blogs take to run. I would love to learn more about blogs and html code. I am just learning the ropes of wordpress. I hope I will continue to mess around with things and get the feel of the features. I would love to continue a blog just to keep my family updated with pictures.

I have learned a lot about technical writing, communication, rhetorical communication and ethics in the workplace just to name a few topics we covered. I like this class a lot so far and I hope I continue to learn a
lot and stay focused

I think every assignment and every complete goal is a step in the right direction. we are using critical writing and thinking for every assignment as well as processing all different new information. I think that by the end of the semester that I will have complete all the course outcomes.

D#2 HW#5

The quote that reads in our textbook goes as follows…

“the newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relation between human beings, and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem of what to say and how to say it.” (Dobrin)

My take on this quote is the complexity of the human connection and human communication. All the technology that surrounds us today is nothing compared to the intricate human connections we share with one another. There is no replacement for complicated human communication and our varying relationships with others. I choose photographs of computers, mostly older models a picture of planet earth and a couple sharing a moment together. Nothing can compare to human communication, not even the fastest computer.

“D#1.0, HW#10–weekly calendar

22 01 2010

Wow. My weekly calendar is pretty full. Most of my week consists of baby playtime but I am pretty busy none the less. I always try to get my work done in during Ava’s naps and when I have free time but this semester is going to be a balancing act. I am in my final semester here at ASU and taking eighteen credits for the first time in a long time. I need to stay organized and on top of all my work. I know I can do it.
