1. I was able to learn several different application including
Twitter,Delicious,Diigo,Animoto,Pinterest,Glogster and
more.
The ease of use of most of these applications was
remarkable. I was able to start to build my professional
network while learning the various components of each
application.
I can see the benefits of all of these applications in my
position as a high school counselor.
I gained a great deal of knowledge in a short period of
time in this course.

5. I really enjoyed taking this class for several reasons.
Moodle was simple, user friendly, and self explanatory.
I found that Moodle included a help discussion forum along with an easy
profile setup. It allowed you to meet other online learners in your class and
collaborate if necessary
Each topic included in this class was neatly outlined with all course
requirements and provided links to each grading rubric
I found that each topic was covered in detail including written directions as
well as tutorial websites and instructional videos.
This was my first online class and I found it rewarding for many reasons. I
was able to access my course and information with ease on my own time
24/7.
The option to repeatedly watch tutorial and reread directions was very
helpful in my learning this new information
I was able to complete some assignments while I watched my children at the
pool during the day.
It was enjoyable and I will do it again!
