I was very worried about the first class because I was in South Dakota. I found a McDonald's with wi-fi and was set to go. The first class went smoothly. Only, I have to be honest, I was overwhelmed. There was a lot to take in and I wasn't in a great environment for it. That is one thing I definitely learned about me and online learning - I need to be in a place where I can concentrate on the tasks at hand.
I was also nervous about the topic of digital story telling. I've worked with my students to create documentaries this year. They did a wonderful job. My fear is that I won't have the creativity and the ability to risk take like they did. It was easy to encourage them to take risks, but I worry about that for myself. I hope that this class will help with that. After watching all the examples and looking at the links, I know there are many tools out there that I will be able to refer to to help me through the process.
