Task 1: Deliverable: ScreenR Google Reader

     So far this class has made me feel like an old lady who is so out of touch with technology! I've learned there is so much more than just Gmail, YouTube, and Facebook. This has been my first time using tools like Blogger, Google Reader, Diigo, Twitter, and iGoogle. When I looked over the tasks list in the beginning of the semester, I have to admit, I was pretty intimidated. But I've realized it is so simple and such good resources! I will definitely continue using these tools in the future. I even think that posting blogs on Blogger is fun! I used to think that people who blogged had waaayyy too much time on their hands, but it is so fast and easy.

     There are so many advantages to being a tech-savvy teacher with a refined personal learning network. It allows the teacher to keep in touch with her new generation students and the fast-paced outside world. It also gives the teacher new ways to shake things up and always keep learning interesting.




     My ScreenR video is on "How to use Google Reader". Honestly it took me about 10 tries to get it right. I always wondered how these videos were made, thinking it was a super complicated process that only the super techies knew how to make. ScreenR is such a good tool for online teachers to use.
