My experience has been fairly limited. I have used blogs, wikis, and nings for some of my classes. I also use Facebook, but I sometimes struggle to figure out new things. I know how to do many things with excel and word, but there are still many things that I do not know how to do. I have not created my own blog before, and do not keep myself up to date with Facebook on a daily basis. I feel much more comfortable with technology since coming to college. My family is very conservative, including their use of technology. We put off using the internet for far too long. Luckily, college has forced me out of my comfort zone.
I am interested to hear what class you used Ning in?
ReplyDeleteI believe that technology should be used wisely and not just for the sake of using technology. Part of being able to use it wisely though is learning about its capabilities and limitations.
I hope that this class is helpful to you in this regard.
