I think I’ll just follow Elaine’s reflection prompts. …

~ My favourite discovery was wikidot.com.  I actually used it to plan my daughter’s baby shower, collaborating on the website (alarue.wikidot.com) with two other people.  It was a great tool and really kept the details and responsibilities up to date. 

~ I was surprised to find myself playing online.  I’m usually after information results when I use a computer.  I found myself enjoying free creative time.

~ Likely I will continue to use Facebook.  I’ve let my Facebook page lie dormant for a couple of years.  I just discovered the Facebook widgit in my iPhoto.  How easy to share some recent or event photos on my Facebook account as I upload from my camera.  I will also continue my bookclub idea on Library Thing and use Wikidot for team planning.

~ My favourite aspect of this project is the self-directed learning structure.  I kept to the timeline fairly well and think this is an important feature to keep the student moving!  The assignments also had a nice work/play/rest balance keeping me encouraged and ready for the next e-hurdle.

~ Thank you Elaine.  Brilliant student-centred design!
