I learned how to use Diigo's annotation software. This is a useful feature because it allows me to keep track of my own thoughts on electronic sources, in circumstances where on a physical resource I would want to write in the margins. The fact that you can share pages with annotations is also helpful. It enables you to share websites,which I could already do, but it lets you share your own commentary on a resource. You can also direct attention to specific components of a source which, along with the other features, makes sharing information with peers that much easier.
The variety of ways of presenting information with PowerPoint allow you to create a wide array of presentations according to any number of design and education guidelines. PowerPoint is excellent for analysis because it allows for information to be broken down and grouped together in relevant categories on different slides, which can then be brought back together further into the presentation. In a given presentation, I'd tackle applying, understanding, and remembering all at once towards the end by reviewing information from previous slides, addressing their relation to one another, and trying to apply them to relevant circumstances in the real world.
eLearning Industry is a website that focuses on upcoming trends in technology as viewed from the perspective of an educator. This includes analyses of why certain technologies are beneficial for students, articles on education itself, and a myriad events related to the intersection of education and technology. It goes even further by providing a hub for people advertising and searching for jobs pertaining to education and technology. It is a versatile resource for educators, and anyone looking to constructively integrate technology into their workplaces or lives.
