BP4_Web 2.0 Review

Greetings Subscribers,

For today's Web 2.0 review, I am going to review and Learning Management System called Schoology.  You can visit the website at www.schoology.com.  If any subscribers do not know what a Learning Management System is, it is basically an online classroom, in which the instructors and students can meet, collaborate, learn, and exchange ideas and thoughts.

The Schoology software is extremely easy to use.  The instructor logs in, and creates a course, and can create different sections of a specific course.  After creating the course and sections, the instructor can upload documentation, assignments, tests/quizzes and even create discussion boards.  The students and teachers can create profiles that help each other to put a name with a face, and help interaction not seem so distant.

One of the best parts to this LMS is the analytic tools.  Different charts, graphs, etc. and be created at the click of a button that shows attendance, quiz scores, or whatever the teacher needs.  Also, students can create posts on a wall, which is extremely similar to facebook and other web. 20 sites.

A sample course that I created was a basic course on audio production.   The first lesson is about microphones, and microphone types.

I definitely recommend this tool to any instructor that is looking for a free online learning managment classroom.

BP1_Welcome To My Post

Hello Everyone, my name is Lester Page.  This is my first blog post ever.   My professional background is in Audio Production.  Live sound production, studio production, recording, etc.  I also do video production editing, and event production management.

I work for Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas, managing the audio visual staff that handles event production and classroom support.  I am excited about obtaining my Master's Degree from Full Sail University.  The Master's program has been awesome over the past few months, and I have learned a ton.  I am nervous about the CBR project.  When I first started Full Sail, I was working on an Action Research Project, which to my understanding is similar to the CBR project, but it is more of an individualized research project.  When I came back from IOT, I was told that I needed to start at CBR project which is more group based.

Now I am in the process of trying to find a new group since I am back from IOT.

Well, I look forward to the class-Emergent Technologies in a Collaborative Culture.

Lester
