The lecture and workshops in week 3 were very helpful as they were basically made around the assignment. The lecture discussed digital citizenship, which is the topic for our first assignment. I found it very interesting that you could claim your name online so that no one else could use it; you can even do it on Facebook! Lecture 3 also gave me some very good tips on blogging, the main ones I've taken away from it are to keep my personal life personal and also once something is posted it is always posted so I must be careful of what I write online and make sure it is done in a professional manner. Lecture 3 also displayed a lot of information about Cyber Bullying, which I think I am going to do my Digital Poster on.
I've come to really love my website! Once i'm on it and I have started editing it I can't seem to stop. I never really thought that this unit would be interesting but it has somehow really engaged me! I love learning new things and once I understand them it is such a great feeling, and I think that is what has happened here, this unit actually makes me excited to learn and excited for the future.
So I created my website originally through Wix and then decided that it was to difficult to navigate my way through it so I decided to check out some other sites to create my website on. I found the list of websites on the Technology Toolbox for Educators. After going through all the given website creator tools I decided to go with weebly and I think it is great! There was a much bigger variety in the website backgrounds and templates and it was much easier to use so I was quite pleased.
The last thing I have to do for task 1 is create the digital poster. I found a really great example on the topic which I want to focus on (cyber bullying) here.
I think this poster is a great example and it has given me a few ideas on how to go about my digital poster.
So there is my second blog post! Don't forget, any feedback would be great!
Thanks for reading :)
