My journey in making a
second visual project has been yet another learning experience with its own
unique set of mixed feelings; it entailed both the feelings of reward along
with anxiety and panic when I started using a whole different resource: Prezi
for my second visual assignment. The reason for it is likely due to the fact
that this is only my second course since I just started the program in April.
Nonetheless, Doug was
welcoming enough to provide us the freedom as well as the flexibility to
explore new resources for the purposes of finishing the instructional strategy
assignment. But, as learner who is accustomed to a lecture-based format of
teaching, who can be self-directed but requires
attention, but requires guidance and occasional direction during the course of
their studies, taking an online course that requires completing a visual
project with minimum supervision was an unnatural task.
Having voiced my
dissatisfactions along with some feelings of despair, it is noteworthy to
mention that my technical difficulties in blogging and completing a visual
project stemmed from a lack of technological knowledge. Having worked on the
project, and overcoming some initial quagmires, I am confident to say that my
capabilities have improved and I have gained confidence in the way I work with
technology while improving my independent learning skills.
