Week 9 - Thing 23 - Summary

Well...I've reached the end of "23 Things"!! and I feel like I've really learned quite a bit about technology on the internet. I think some of my favorite exercises included: creating a blog (now I get it!!) and learning about podcasts. I had actually already participated in a podcast with a page at Eldersburg, but never realized how she was going to use my voice and our discussion to create a "podcast". Somewhere...I might be "famous". I can see the benefits of blogging just by reading other peoples blogs and learning what they're thinking about the very same things I'm doing... I think this program has helped me realize just how much you can do with a computer and on the internet and now I feel that I can actually use some of the things I learned here in both my everyday life and my work life. Growing up without the benefit of the internet I think limited my idea of learning to just books, lectures, etc. this program made me realize just how much you can learn just by trying new things....
If something like this was offered again I would certainly try it. I was trying to think of ways to improve on the program, but nothing comes immediately to mind because we had plenty of time to do the 23 things and everything was well described. I guess I'd describe my learning experience with this program as "expanding my potential and my abilities."
