Lesson 5 Reflection

Again I am reminded how well some groups can work together. Our team came together and completed all tasks. Even when I had some issues and did not stay in contact as much as usual, we all worked together to complete everything that was needed in the end. We offered suggestions to each other and reminded each other about assignments that needed to be completed. I do not stress now when I see we have a group assignment. I know that I am not on my own and that we will pull together and all do our best.

Lesson 5

Lesson five was interesting with the presentations being the major occurence during this lesson. I was pleased with our result since we were able to present without any technology glitches. The presentation that I attended provided many useful websites which could be used for my own children as well as in a classroom. The discussion questions provided a great review of the three types of learning activities and also the strategies that I can use in my Unit. I will certainly be referring to these three pages when I am building my unit so that I can be sure to include many different strategies within the unit. As in every other lesson working with my team has been a breeze even when all three of us have overlooked something and are working together on it at the last minute :)

Lesson 5 Reflection

Lesson Five was very engaging for me. We were able to present a successful Network Training Session through Elluminate and we moderated WetPaint and Diigo discussions. I feel fairly content with how things have gone as a group.

The Network Training Session worked out pretty well. I was concerned that I might not have been able to present due to breathing/coughing issues stemming from my pneumonia. However, when the day of the presentation came around, I was able to particpate with my assigned powerpoint slides. The presentation was solid and the surveys received provided positive feedback to the group.

On a negative aspect, during this second week of moderating, I have had issues with Diigo this week. I am not sure where the issue is stemming from. I have completed software updates however I am still having issues. I feel this has provided some issues with my ability to perform Diigo moderations successfully. Frustrating!!

With viewing other group presentations and reading others activities through WetPaint, I have been able to build upon my own knowledge base and experiences with different perspectives and innovative ideas gained from fellow classmates.
