Life. Evaluated

Five fellow classmates completed the evaluation survey. Their responses indicate that though required for class, the content of the blog caused each classmate to do something. Some explored other TED videos while others explored how to use RSS feeds as a direct result of a posting. Each response indiciated a different cateogry for content which is interpreted as a desired outcome to be broad enough to be labeled as science & technology, education, how to, or personal.

The not so techy audience rated the ease of navigation as a 4 out of 5 while requesting more frequent postings and enhancements to navigation. A later change to navigation was adding an assignments page that allowed visitors to quickly and easily navigate to a particular assignment related to the class. However, it is suggested that lack of blog experience amongst several visitors may account for a difficulty in navigation.

Of those classmates that responded, most visit about once a week and will continue to do so after the class is over. This inspires me to hopefully continue contributing posts to engage the readers and share about my life.

For a self evaluation, I think put a fairly good amount of "lessons learned" from previous blogs in the creation and maintaining of Life. As a      and a graduate student. The requirements for the class prohibited me from using my ongoing professional blog which initially I would have liked to put the time and energy into. However of the past several weeks, I have enjoyed the topic and opportunity to artistically create videos and posting for this new blog.

The earlier videos were short and simple. Unfortunately, I did not put as much effort or time as I had hoped into creating the closed caption video. I have an appreciation for those who take the time to make CC available in their videos. It requires the storyboard and script creating BEFORE making the video. I will have to restrain from discussing my personal beliefs regarding CC in nursing education from a disability and/or language necessity.

StoryBoard for CC Video

I am running a little behind on getting the video posted. But I will try and make the wait worth while. Preview of the storyboard
