2. Describe your personal learning preferences (1
paragraph, 100-150 words) - Answer EACH of the
following questions:
At the beginning of this class my scores were good, I was high in visual and
active and lower in verbal and sequential. The quiz about the syllabus was
simple because it was easy to understand. But later on the quiz gets harder
and my score went lower. At the end of the class, my thinking changes about
my learning preferences and how easy it was for me to learn one way over
the other. At the beginning it wasn't hard for me to keep up but I noticed that
it was hard after that and I didn't noticed that the papers about using the
knowledge in another class was mandatory. The instructions were a bit
unclear at first to me but later I started to notice it and able to catch up some.
3. Describe the learning pathway you chose at the
beginning of the class (1 paragraph, 100-200 words)
At the end of the class, I began to really look at the different learning preferences as a
whole because if you are weak in one then you will have a problem but that is only
until you find a way to conquer it. I personally notice toward the end of the semester
that the class required three steps for each post. By knowing my specific learning
preferences I am able to succeed. For example, as of today I am able to download
apps and movies to my iTunes. I found this class to be really helpful on the level of
helping me learn and able to use this knowledge to further my education and to use it
in the future.
4. Describe how the activities you completed contributed or
did not contribute to your learning pathway (1 paragraph,
100-200 words)
One of the specific activities that helped me to get a broader understanding
of how a multimedia technology to learn was technology quest iPod and
Tablets. This helped me a lot because I don't know a lot about tablets but
after doing the activities I can't wait to buy one. They are so helpful and very
easy to use. The most activities that help me to learn more about technology
was MMGOS games because I do not know anything about game, I only
play games on actually gaming system, so finding out the kind of games I
could use on my phone and have it be a learning experience was great.
5. Using one paragraph each, describe the top 3 mobile/social/
multimedia technologies you explored for learning (3
paragraphs, 100-150 words each)
The multimedia that I have explored my own learning is iPod and tablets
which I found out important and useful for the future, because our society is
developing very fast on technology and a lot of people are able to use it,
which makes easy life for majority of the people. Technology can really help
a person with everything. People have a computer at home with internet and
then they are able to pay bills online and have access to their personal
record and accounts. Also people can use social networking sites like
MySpace, face book and twitter to talk and meet people all over the world.
Skype is something I personally use all the time to talk to my boyfriend over
seas, it really has helped our relationship.
6. Synthesize your experience investigating your use
of different mobile/social/multimedia technologies
for learning (2 paragraphs, 100-150 words each)
I though all of them was interesting but the most that interesting me
personally was the iPhone. I think this was the most interesting because I am
really into technology and having the new greatest thing in that field. The
most topics that surprise me was learning from games because I didn’t know
that how you could learn from certain games.
The multimedia that helped me the most was learning to use my iPhone, I
have had one for a while but I never knew of the cool apps you can get and
use to my learning preferences. It was hard to get a grip on the social
network, I didn’t find that important because those all well knowing to our
society. In the future, I would like to know more about social networking. I
know it is important to learn and be apart of especially if you are a business
owner or trying to find a target market to sell ideas too.
7. Describe how you will use what you learned in this class
after this semester (2 paragraphs, 100-150 words)
The best multimedia technology on my
opinion would be social network and
being able to know understand
podcasts. I never really new what
one was until I went on that quest.
Ever since then I can stop looking for
more on the iTunes store. They have
podcasts for everything, I even watch
podcasts that come in episodes. It's
like watching a television series but
you are learning with them. My
personal favorites are the scientific
ones and the learning another
language. I use them everyday now
and I have no doubt I will use them
everyday in the future. They are
really fun and easy to do. It helps me
greatly being a visual learner and
watching them, I have yet to find one
for recipes.
