1. Make sure you have headphones or speakers attached to your computer.
2.Open up the 7 and 1/2 Habits online tutorial and view the online tutorial. The tutorial was developed by the training specialists at the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County (you do not need to email them as suggested at the end of this tutorial).
3.As you watch and listen, write down which habit among the 7 & 1/2 that is easiest for you and which is hardest. You will use your personal blog (which you will set up next) to post your thoughts about lifelong learning.
From the video, 7 1/2 Habits, there are some habits that will come easily to me. On the other hand some of them will be more challenging habit.
Taking responsibility for you learning is Habit 2. This habit is already familiar to me. I know that in order to learn and become proficient at something you have to take the time to practice it and study. Even though your lectured in a class doesn't make the teacher responsible for your knowledge in the subject. You are responsible for building and studying that lessons in that lecture.
Habit 6 will be the most difficult for me. Although I love technology, I don't know much over the basics. I don't often find time in my studies to play with the programs and figure out the tools available to me through technology. I'm hoping this Educational Technologies class will open my eyes to the resources that can make my everyday learning experiences easier and efficient.
