Week 6 - Journal Entry

Honestly, I fizzled out in week 6. I thought a lot about my produsage assignment (a wiki) and I worked on it here and there. It's light on content but I was weighing the costs-benefits of loading it with stuff. Vanessa's comments on the wiki are well taken - she said I might need to nudge users a little more, provide more direction. I agree and I'll work that in. I wanted to incorporate a few more cool tools but, in the end, I decided my audience wouldn't be ready...need to ease them in to it. I will use my produsage at work and I'll let you know how it pans out.

I spent time checking out more tools --- gosh, there are so many. I like Anthologize and I'm trying to see if I like StumbleUpon. I'm following and will continue to follow the Chronicle of Higher Education, USDOE and others on Twitter. It helps that I have a Twitter app on my iPhone.

I really loved this class. I think Vanessa rocks! It was fun to discover and learn with all of you.
