Last week of class

Melanie and I worked together yesterday on our project. We had a great time thinking creatively and putting our ideas together. We counted on each other to figure out how to maneuver between programs, files, and documents. Two heads are better than one! I must say that although we are not experts on our topic, open source software, we at least know quite a bit more than we knew did before!

I have heard people say, since being in these technology classes, that Power PointTM is kind of old hat. However, since I am still learning all it offers, it is not old to me! It took me several minutes yesterday just to figure out how to get a new screen and edit. When Melanie suggested how to do it, and then it actually worked, we were so tickled! I have to remember that frustration and then joy when teaching technology to others. Something that is basic and easy for one person, could easily be frightening and frustrating to someone else-especially early on.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone Friday!
