Learning 2.0

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

I subscribe to the blog, Online Learning Update, which had an article on Learning 2.0. It’s the first I’ve heard the term, and it describes much of the learning I do. I encourage my grandchildren to learn all their life and, with the web, it’s easier than ever to find resources. The Learning 2.0 article is, “The boundaries are different with learning 2.0.”

Palomar College Web Courses

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

I’ve just started two online courses at Palomar College, Website Development and JavaScript. I’ve built the skeletons for two relevant websites at http://csis137.com and http://csis138.com. We are required to build a website as a final project for Website Development and I chose to make one for our new dog, Amber, at http://AmberSalzer.com. She has her own website!

Unfortunately, Goldie is no longer with us. She had a tumor in her heart and a number of other problems. I made for Shirley a DVD of Goldie’s life, as we knew it.

I’m excited about the courses as it gives me structure for learning and a legitimate reason to be on the computer. 🙂
