At the beginning of this course I wondered if i would ever make it through. My head was spinning with Computer lingo, and trying to muttle my way through all the ” things”. I found myself beginning to enjoy the time I spent on the lessons and passing the info onto to my children and [...]

I did really enjoy visiting and tagging in the Delicious web site. This could be a very helpful tool in teaching. Trying to remember all the sites you have visited and why is quite a task. This site would be wonderful to pull every time you needed a quick reference or a study sheet or [...]
