Weekly Update

I have a very exciting and productive meeting with Carol on Tuesday. She thought the Google Form was very easy to create. I showed her other ways she could use Google Forms, such as exporting to Excel. We were both so excited that we went off topic and I showed her how I use Google calender and Picasa to share photos. She said these would be very useful to her with her organizations she helps with outside of school. She and I were both very busy and not able to do much with our second goal, which is creating a digital story. So we decided that she would learn how to use Windows Photo Story on her own and start on that project this week. Instead of creating a instruction sheet, I am going to create a digital story about myself and a template that the education professors could use.

Week 2 Post 6818

Because of our busy schedules, I was not able to meet with Carol in person this week. In my absence, she provided me with some ideas of how we could meet every other week. So what I did for this week is create a document explaining how to create a Google Form. I included screen shots and step by step directions so that it could be used after I was not there to help her. Then I told her that we could even use Google chat to communicate when I cannot meet her in person. I really like how she got the ball rolling, which helped me think of other ways I could help her.
