Asynchronous video

I enjoyed having class via asynchronous video. I sometimes find it hard learning things on my own and figuring things out, especially when they come to computers. But, I have found that if I put in the time to search around the internet, I can usually figure things out. Although I really enjoy synchronized learning, this method wasn't too bad. In my experience I have found that others can really help me to learn as I collaborate with them and share ideas with them in class. It just seems more convenient to learn that way. Maybe I am just not used to asynchronous learning quite yet as synchronized learning is mainly what I am used to. I really enjoyed learning more about Personal Learning Networks this week and then working to turn my own blog into a Personal Learning Network. In order to do this I put links on my blog to favorite blogs as well as the blogs of my group members. I also incorporated my shared folder from Google Reader on my blog. Another way I helped turn my blog into a PLE was I linked important networking sites that I personally use to my blog (Facebook, Delicious). This way people can see ways to further connect with me and I can use these 2.0 tools to connect with others. It is a great way I can share ideas and input with others and others with me. For this assignment I also created a Youtube account and responded via video to the class video on PLE's. It was fun to record and post the video. It is yet another way to communicate and share ideas and knowlege with others. It was great!
