What I learned from EDM310

I have learned so much from Dr. Strange in my T/Thur. 9:30, EDM310 class. He has been by far my best professor this semester. I came to his class with little knowledge on using a computer and am leaving it feeling like I can navigate my way through well enough to keep up with new and current trends in computer technology. I especially liked the video tutorials he published for the class. They helped me so much! Even though Dr. Strange was very through in class, there were days when we covered too much for me to retain, so watching the videos at home were a wonderful learning tool. I fully intend to watch them in the future to continue my growth in modern computer technology. He was also a great teacher in using my mac notebook.

I Can't Believe I Won First Prize!

I was so excited that my photograph won first prize! I am still experimenting with my digital camera that one of my sons handed down to me. I was so pleased that my photograph caught Dr. Strange's eye, and he thought it was worthy of winning first place.

Can Wikipedia Be Trusted?

Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia that is used by many is somewhat controversial when it comes to the validity of its content. When Jimmy Wale, the founder of wikipedia started the online resource in 2001, he had the idea that it would be a wonderful source of knowledge for online viewers because the content would be added by professionals and specialists in each area, and it would be open for added information. For the most part, wikipedia seems like a reliable place to retrieve information on over one million subject areas, but the freedom to add to subject content has also created the ability to alter or delete subject data. This is where there are kinks in Wikipedia. The data that is being erased, altered or fabricated can be done by those that are not members, therefore questioning accuracy of the content.
