Week 3 Reflection

2/1/17
Today in class, we took a look at all of the student work so far. First, we looked at all of our blogs themselves and checked to see that they were all going well and that all of the posts were there. There were a couple of students who had to make some changes due to the colors of their backgrounds and text. I kept mine simple, as I don't like a whole lot of colors because it makes things very difficult to read.
Next, we went through our Moodles and checked what all of our topics were and what we had added to those over the week. Dr Sponder taught us how to create banners for each of our topic headings and one for our course heading. He has asked us to put a banner on each one of these pieces before next class. He gave us a couple of options on how to make them, but I think I am going to stick with completing this task on Microsoft Word because I am very comfortable with the program as I have been using it for a good portion of my life.
We then went on to rubistar to check out some of the rubrics that are available to us for our Moodles. We have been instructed to have at least 3 rubrics somewhere in our Moodles. They can be foreached any assignment and they can be changed as necessary. I look forward to working with these new pieces of technology, especially Rubistar because I have never used it before. Also, we learned about EdShelf, which is a way for us to keep all of our apps in one place which seems like a really fun website to explore.
