Completed Final Assignment

http://mryan.wiki.hoover.k12.al.us/

My Wiki has gone from basically existing to actually being a site that will be a helpful tool both for academics and for communication. As I explained in my earlier blogs, I created curriculum pages with external links for practice and information in that each area. Other pages, such as the page for my newsletters and daily schedule have internal links. I added some pictures on the Dauphin Island page, but decided to keep the Wiki very simple in design. My homework page is set up and ready for homework to be posted nightly. I feel so much better about this resource and so much more confident in maneuvering my way through the steps needed to change and add to the Wiki.

Skype

Thursday my daughter and I Skyped---I guess I can use this word as a verb. We did not have cameras, but it was still cool with voice only. I can see the potential for this tool for keeping in touch socially---especially with someone far away using a camera. I can also see how useful this could be in the business world and in education. Being able to communicate one on one with a group or individual with the option of screen share, etc.could be invaluable.
