I have to commend this course, as I would surely recommend it to any university students at McGill, and further I would recommend this course to parents of McGill Students. I think that the core concepts and learning strategies in this course covers a broad range of interests and has the ability to teach many different age cohorts. I learned so much from this course, from learning how to use website software to just having the confidence to set-up and maintain my own blog. The ideas and idiosyncrasies found in this course will only have a positive effect on my use and integration of technology in the future. Overall, I really enjoyed all the final presentations that the class had to offer, and I relish in the fact that everyone’s final presentation reeked of individual creativity and interest. The spectrum of final assignments was very interesting, and some highlights for me included: Blaire and Aarons Rocket Richard rendition, Adriannes’ documentary, the aboriginal movie about bullying, and especially the Woodstock movie presentation. Overall, the class maintained an interesting persona throughout the course, and I think the professor did a good job of balancing his authority, and knowing when to back off and let the students experiment with the technology. However, the most important aspect that I will take away with me from this course is the idea that no matter what problems or glitches you come across when using or implementing new technology, there is always some way to get around your problem, and always some new way to be creative.
Thanks for a great semester Sam! I hope you have enjoyed reading my blog as much as I have enjoyed sharing it with you and the class.
Take care,
