The most distinctive thing that I can feel myself during this class is that my Internet behavior has been changed.
I have been believing myself I am "Techy". But that does not mean that I am good at "Web 2.0".
At the beginning of the class, all new Web 2.0 technologies I have faced were wonderful, interesting, attractive...
However, in this Week5, I am a little bit frustrated and depressed.
Why?
There are many many many Web 2.0 based websites I have never heard and seen.
Why am I out-dated?
I can introduce myself "I am a docs students in the Instructional Systems, yes, I am a kind of EXPERT in Educational Technology".
Can I say like that?? The answer is "Definitely NOT."
Web 2.0 Class have provided me with tons of wonderful technologies.
But I can feel that there are too much burden.
I can say that I cannot use all of Web2.0 technologies I have learned during this class in the future.
However, I can feel that my Internet behavior is little bit changed.
I was definitely a "consumer" in the Internet world.
But I realized that I can be a "produser" in this scene.
To be a good produser, there is a serious limitation to me.
That is a language barrier.
I am an International student. It is not easy to express my words in English.
However, I found an alternative way.
I am guessing that those many Web2.0 tools have not usually been introduced in Korea.
Thus, I made a decision to make a blog.
The topic is "Web 2.0 and Educational Technology"
Here is the thing. This blog incorporates my class blog and my own personal website, too.
Through this blog, I want to share ideas with Korean, who are interested in Web2.0 in Education contexts.
I expect that the visitors in my blog might be undergrads and/or grads who are majoring in education, communication, etc.
I will introduce many Web2.0 tools to them through my new blog.
Is this a good idea?
Congratulations on your new blog! You'll have to let me know how it goes (since obviously I cannot read it).
ReplyDeleteHi Vanessa,
DeleteThat's a good idea.
I'd like to discuss "Blogademe" in my blog world with you later.
Web2.0 class obviously have changed my behaviors in the Internet world.
Tang,
ReplyDeleteI think it is a wonderful idea! And I have to tell you even if you are "out-dated" on some Web 2.0 tools you sure know a lot, I would call you an Educational Technology expert!
Thanks Erin!
