Bonnie's post http://blog.lib.umn.edu/ludem001/extension20/ en Copyright 2009 Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:44:27 -0600 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/?v=4.25 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Wrap Up The online listmaker is such a handy tool to use. I currently am using it daily as an organizational tool. It is much more efficient than handwriting lists of tasks.
A new level of awareness has been raised for me concerning the many useful tools that are out there that a technology challenged person like myself can actually use.
This process is such a user friendly way for the working person to learn even though I'm probably not going to use every tool that we learned about but it's still good for me to know that they are available.
I would definitely be open to participating in another enrichment opportunity if something like this is offered again.
Thanks!

It worked well for me. I went in and made some adjustments to the pods just now and discovered the pointer and the white board overlay. They would be neat to use for future presentations. I also discovered that there are buttons to use to click through the powerpoint slides instead of using the keyboard to do that. There are no doubt many other features available that would be slick to use with monthly web conferencing. Need to check more of those out.....

Definitely worth a look.....

I am also considering the Backpack site as this site, too, may well be a valuable tool for me on a daily basis.

I've heard the term but had no clue what they were and now I know! Thanks!

Very useful for a someone who is alwasy looking for new food ideas.
