2. Motivation to take this class
 What types of technologies available for me to use
technology
 How can IPod improve my learning
 Besides basic music function, what other function
can be used in iPod.
 I would like to investigate and explore more on
iPod as well as other technologies

3. Personal Learning Preferences

Everyone have their own learning
preferences
It is good to know how we learn
We can improve our learning by knowing
our learning preferences
To enhance our ability to learn
How do we learn effectively

6. Learning Pathway
 Learning Warrior: deeper investigation into fewer
technologies
 Goal to attempt:
 Intro Quest: 100 points
 Metacognition Quests: 300 points
 Tech Quests
 Level 1: 150 points
 Level 2: 150 points
 Level 3: 300 points
 Synthesis Quest
 Level 1: 75 points
 Level 2: 75 points
 Level 3: 350 points

8. Activities I completed…..
 After completed all the level 1 activities (quizzes), I need to
read through all the PowerPoint slides and additional links
related to the topic in order to complete the assignments. I
can have a better understanding when reading along.
 Level 2 activities are forums, I need to post and share my
work to the class and able to get feedback and comments
from other students. At the same time, I can give other
students feedback and comments.
 Level 3 activities are experimental, I need to explore the
technologies and apply to my life and compare the difference
between before and after use.

9. Top 3 technologies
 IPod or iPhones- review lectures, presentation,
quiz apps, record audio files
 IPad or tablets- record lecture, record audio files,
review presentation, internet access, share
information
 Social network sites- share contents, interact
with others, create forum and join groups,
questions and comments

10. How to use what I learned…..
 I can use what I learned from this class forever
after this semester
 Use the available resources to study
(iPad/iPhone)
 Handle and manage my stress in other way
 Use the best learning strategy which work best to
me to learn new things in future
 I will change my diet and sleep habits which affect
my learning

11. Investigate…..
 What I really investigate is IPad and social network
sites
 IPad:
 commonly used and owned technology.
 Bring it to class and to work, easy to carry around
 Review lectures and PowerPoints in class
 Note-taking in class
 Social Network Sites
 Keep in touch with classmates
 Join groups which related to my major
 Create group for my class to ask question and comment
 Create study group

12. Summarize as Warrior
 As a learning warrior, the goal is to have a deep investigation
into few technologies
 But I like to investigate each of the technologies which is
useful and helpful in learning.
 Not only one certain technology can help us to know and
there is so many other technologies out there
 I would like to know more rather than just few
 It is always good to know more technologies as we can
because many new technologies are producing everyday
