Things I have enjoyed most about EME 2040 thus far.

The first half of the class has gone by. It really does not seem to have been almost two months ago that we started. I put together and distributed a newsletter for my class that incorporated one writing assignment for my students. I had fun doing it and it has been something I have wanted to do for some time. I have also learned how to convert standard word documents into PDF documents without scanning. I have used this function several times for my business that frequently requires I send contracts via email. Having the ability to bypass a scanning step has saved loads of time and has been significantly more convenient. I have also enjoyed the process of blogging. It is almost like keeping a journal. It has been fun learning how to link my blog site to You Tube and view a simple video that I created. As a result of the class I was also able to justify purchasing a lap top. I have been delaying for years. Now I have a fairly current machine with some updated technology and software that I am trying to become proficient using. I sort of feel like the old dog learning new tricks and I am enjoying it most of the time. I admit there have been a few frustrations! I am looking forward to creating a web site. I have a web site now that is more of a plug in system with some significant limits. I am hoping we will get a more comprehensive approach to building our own web sites soon.
