Final thoughts...THE END!!

Well...I've finally made it! It's been a long time in the making, but my blog is now complete.

My favourite exercises were learning about images generators, and getting the chance to browse through you tube and imbed a video. It was also very useful learning about podcasts and audiobooks.

This program was very useful in providing introductions to many popular web tools that are available. We often hear about this stuff but never actually get around to trying it out. This was a great opportunity to try out many different "things".

I was most surprised to find out how easy it was to used these tools once introduced. Especially things like audiobooks and shared calendars. Tools that are very available but the steps are often a mystery. The exercises helped in learning how to get results step by step.

If this type of program was offered again I may consider participating. I learn much better in a classroom set up (e.x hands-on workshop), but realize that there is no way this scope of material could have been covered in that way. I found that in trying to get through all of the "things", it was hard to properly retain all of the information when you were quickly moving on to the next subject.
