Project Progress

So far, I am regretting the challenge of Html but I enjoy challenges. I wanted the design of my site to be simple and easy to navigate. I am becoming more familiar with using Nvu and using Html. IF I were using Weebly or Google Sites, it would've have been an easy assignment. I'm glad I challenged myself but I guess the only frustration that I have is with html. Having to be so careful and submitting updated pages to NCSU's server is a pain. But I tell myself everyday to look at the positive from this experience. Hopefully, the recent changes made to my site will make everyone happy. I also would like to thank my group for their suggestions.

Interactions and Experiences (Part 3)

For my final post, I am glad to let everyone know that I now have two friends! I continued to send friend requests to teachers, to no avail. I uploaded a PowerPoint presentation about Google Sites that I created for my ECI 512 course. I do enjoy this site and the design. Teacher Recess has great potential and I will continue to use it after this assignment is complete. Overall, the user interface is easy to use and navigate. The site features a store and other resources that all teachers can use.

Interactions and Experiences (Part 2)

So far, I've joined two groups and posted a bulletin highlighting Evernote. One person has responded to my bulletin post and only have one friend. I wish that this site had a chat feature, which would add to the synchronous communication capabilities that many of the social networking sites are currently adding to their sites. I just noticed that posts can be separated by subject area. This is a great feature because it allows the users to discuss subject-related matters in one space.

Interactions and Experiences (Part 1)

I chose to become a member of Teachers Recess . This site seems fairly new and most members don't regularly check their friend requests. The design of the site is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. I created a profile that included some brief information about me and why I was on the site. The top navigation included some great links that allow teachers to sell teaching items, join groups, upload files, and upload pictures of pets. This site is simple and direct.
