Contribution to your Learning and Learning Community

Overall this summer semester, came fairly quick which meant my summer came to an end even quicker. My expectations of the semester with being on summer were weary.I had some moments of hope, but overall I still felt as overwhelmed as any other semester.

As for communication,I was fortunate enough to still be with my amazingly supportive group for both courses 5315 and 5317 that consisted of Kelven Wilson, Andrei Dobrodumov, Chastity Crissman, Andréa Harrell. I also am part of a larger group for both courses 5315 and 5317 that consists of Charlie, Kelvin, Ileana, Erica, Andrea, Kim, Stephen, Karin, Pedro, Andre, and others.I was proud of myself for not hesitating to ask for help or advice from these individuals.That support system is like no other, especially when we all have busy lives away from our jobs and this program.

5315 Assessing Digital Learning

90/100

This semester I got to dive deep into planning. Action planning that is.I knew were where to make an action plan, but never thought of how in depth the plan had to be to be able to assess what revolved around a single question. This was critical for me to learn and realize what components needed to be explored and identified to gather the steps nessecary for the plan to come together. The action plan outline was the base for the plan to come together and for the essential question we had to assess came together. After, we moved on to do our research to back up our action. The literature review was our chance to view articles about the main topic of our action plan. Then came to putting it all together in our action plan.I appreciated how there could have been a couple different people doing their assessing with similar topics, but everyone had their own emphasis and way of creating.

5317 Resources Digital Environments

90/100

Bringing together resources to create a bigger picture of what our publication addressed was what the course entailed. We first started off by creating an outline of what our publication was about. Researching where our publication topic would best fit was part of the outline ,as well as the criteria nessecary for the opportunity to get published. Once the outline was completed we moved on to our draft. This I thought would be easy from all the research we have done throughout the course, but I was completely wrong. Rough drafts are called rough for a reason. Once we got our bases covered we were able to bring resources together to create a media post to bring views attention to our topic of the publication. I was able to use Canva for the whole project which included audio and video. The audio did take awhile, but know I know for future reference. Finally, came our final publication piece that we are able to publish. This course allowed me to challenge myself in the digital tool realm and create beyond my boundaries.
