My last blog post. How the time has sped by. I’ve liked blogging about ED 217.
We wrapped up class with the final project. Using myebook.com, a site where you could make a book online, we had to create a E-book about the modules in this course and what we had learned (or lackthereof). Myebook is a complex but neat tool. Building the book from scratch, Dr. McCullough showed us assets which included covers, backgrounds, and effects; how to put in photos (and frame them), videos, and audio; how to add text and change the font; and how to add hyperlinks, called “hotspots.” Dr. McCullough also showed us the ISTE National Education Technology Standards. Every standard he hoped we had learned in class, and wanted us write about one standard we had learned in each module.
I really enjoyed doing this final project. It was fun to be creative, and have an oppurtunity to look back over everything I’d learned in class. I know a lot of the tools covered in class will be useful for the rest of my time here at Clarion, and for my professional life.
Farewell!
