And for the final blog of this week, I'd like to ask how everyone is doing - how did the knowledge-sharing assignment go? As I stated earlier this week, I found parts challenging (mostly due to my own technological limitations) but the actual project itself was quite helpful in learning how to approach knowledge sharing - what works, what doesn't, what I could have done better, and where I need to improve in terms of reaching the largest audience. Personally, I felt the most fascinating part of the project was analyzing and tracking views. I used Twitter to conduct the project and I did not even realize Twitter afforded you that ability - I'm checking all the time now lol!
We've covered so many tools in this class so far, and though I doubt I will end up using most of them following completion of this course, there are some that I've found especially helpful and intend to explore further in the future. For example, I'm really enjoying Reddit right now, both for the multitude of different topics available and the breadth and depth of responses to questions or thoughts that people post. Likewise, I'm finding a lot of useful information and functionality on Twitter that I was heretofore unaware of. I can definitely see myself using both of these tools well after the completion of this class. Conversely, some tools, don't really speak to me. Instagram for instance appears to be based around images and I'm more of a wordy gal. Still, I'm glad I'm aware of it and the potential it has to reach a specific audience. I'm curious, what tools do you see yourself using/not using beyond this course, and why?
I really loved going through the assignments. I can't say that about all assignments (currently grading something way less fun for another class). Everyone did such a good job and had something unique to share from their experience.
