LJ4

This module was about online communication and collaboration online. This is something I believe most people are pretty common with. Most people I know live on Facebook and Twitter and couldn't get by day to day without email; kids and adults. After this module I know more about what goes into email aside from just clicking send and checking your inbox. We also covered more than just email however. We also learned about social media, such as social networking sites, blogs, microblogs, wikis, and cloud computing (web 2.0). These are all tools that we use on a daily basis and should understand how they work and what good can come from them. I personally enjoyed the link which Lisa posted about Social Media being a high school class. I found this to be very fitting.

As usual, I feel I should have been more involved in the discussion and tried harder to get my assignments in at the proper time. This has been a busy semester though!
