Week 6 - Grading Chart
Week 6 - Flyer
Week 6 - Quiz
This has been a very difficult assignment for me. I reiterate, that this is my first online class and first IT class. I was and still am very apprehensive about this assignment. I know nothing about creating flyers first and foremost. I am not a very creative person. I am a very straight forward person as you may can tell from my flyer. Creativity was the most difficult part of this assignment.
I really did not have any trouble with setting up my grading system, but I did stumble on the way in which to present the information to the parents. Again, creativity isn't one of my strong points. Other than that the assignment was time consuming because I just did not know exactly what or how to format my 3 documents in a way that would be most beneficial to the parents.
Now, I found I that I was wrong. The hardest thing about this assignment was getting the documents to post in both Blackboard and this blog. I tried for hours last night to get the documents uploaded with no success. Now this morning at work, they uploaded with no problem in Blackboard but still having some difficulty with the links to this blog.

Trust me, you are not the only one having trouble. At least you did not work for two hours, and forget to save. Creativity has little to do with actually doing the flyer, it only affects our opinion of our own work. Most of the time I just use the basic templates - they are not artistic but they get the job done. Apparently numerous people are having trouble with blackboard. Dr Wang and another instructor told me to use Mozilla Firefox with blackboard - it does seem to help. As far as uploading the links - do you have the instruction sheet? It did help me, although I did have to convert the flyer to PDF first - otherwise google could not interpret some of the wordart. Hope this helped.
ReplyDeleteI truly understand your feelings and problems encountered while finishing these projects. This is the process of learning. I will be very confident for next online class and if you were asked to teach online. Take a deep breath and give yourself more time to try different ways. That was what I did. I encounter different technology problems every day while teaching online. I spent hours for only a small problem. So it happens to everybody. I appreciate Kenneth's suggestion to use template if you cannot create a better one or in a short time. It will be very helpful. Good job. I enjoyed sharing your experience.
