Summary --Week Aug 4-Aug9


This week is pretty busy for me. I have to work full-time everyday. And after work, I went back home to have late dinner at 7-8 PM. After that, I woud go to my study to study PIDP 3240. I carefully study the assignments 2,3,4, and reading some chapters for my journal.
Through posting resources and reading the Social Media Forum, I have learned a lot these days.
I have got some knowledge of different kinds of projected media, and the Google Glasses and Smart Board really have left me deep impression.
In addition, "whether PPT  has be outdated" is worth thinking. I have been using PPT for my teaching for many years, which really has facilitated my course. On the other hand, editing PPT is really time-consuming.

Furthermore, by reading chapter 1-3, I have changed my mind on Video Games. I taught a word"exhausted" yesterday, I thought this is a very difficult word. However, many boys said they have learned this word in their games. Suddenly, I thought what I have read in that book is great.


Why blog?

I used to use blog several years ago when I was still in China. At that time, there was no Microblog like twitter, Wechet, etc.  I usually wrote my stories and emotions every day during that period. My close friends can know what I was doing and how I felt that day. Besides, I would also post some beautiful music and my travel diary with video and pictures. They coud comment on my blog frequently.
I do believe this is a good way to share interest and stories with good friends.
Nowadays, we generally use microblog to communicate with my friends here in Canada and in China. Social media has connected the people all around the word, which seems we are living in the same time zone and an no barrier at all.
