I’m not a very good blogger, eh?
Well, my entry into the blogging world has been less than impressive. Looks like I’m averaging just less than a post per month. But, I really want to get this thing rolling this semester, so I’m going to give it a try. For one thing, I’m going to start entering a lot of my class reading responses as blog entries here as well.This semester I am in a Digital Rhetoric class where we’ll be doing a lot of html and css work and talking/thinking about how to create compelling online communications. One of the main goals I have in this class is to get my blog design and structure finalized and to get serious about posting to it. I’m also in Computers and Writing, which might also have been called Technology and Writing. In this class we’re studying the intersection of technology and writing pedagogy. Our first two classes were very stimulating.Oh, by the way, last semester, my first in the Ph.D. program, I was in a survey of research methodologies and in a User Centered Design class that covered not only design, but also usability per se, including usability testing. It was fascinating. I’ll be sharing some posts that stem from my experience in that class in upcoming days, as well.Oh, and I’m loving my MacBook. I’m buying an iMac for my kids next week. More on that later also.
