WEEK 2
5 KEY TAKEAWAYS
What did I learn from the
ACTIVITIES?
Peace and Quiet
Constant interruptions, meetings and general work days are not conducive to focus.

The work from home concept carries new meaning for me regarding ability to connect and conquer.
Explanation:
Technology requires focus
Impact of multiple tools
I was extremely frustrated by the addition of seconds onto a videos total time by uploading to YouTube.  The publishing time and repetition of steps to fix this was extremely frustrating.  So I learnt to always create videos 5s shorter than desired!
Explanation:
Each application affects another.
Images, fonts, text etc
While I mostly use SAM to develop courses, relying on prototypes with iterations, this week taught me the value of ADDIE and storyboarding. Having the bespoke images, and all relevant media ready before actual task development would have certainly decreased time spent.
Explanation:
Content Resources.
What did I learn from others?
The value of different thinking
It was hard to choose 3 top infographics.  
Each had value.
Everyone struggles, just differently
Coffee Room was very busy this week!  
Asking for help is ok.
What where my challenging
 MOMENTS?
Free versions dont cut it.
I had premium access to PowToons for 3 days.  Working with the real free version is simply NO comparison.

Wanting more, is definitely a challenge,  I think that smaller companies are held back by this cost.
Explanation:
Technology is expensive
Impact on Studies
I'm an overachiever,  so balancing this course, work and life has been tough this  last week.

Putting in extra hours is required, which affects everything else.  Commitment and dedication is necessary to achieve goals.
Explanation:
Real Life Commitments
What did I learn about myself?
I procrastinate
When I have no imbedded knowledge.
This week was SCARY!
Till I get stuck IN!
I ended up thoroughly enjoying this week and feel far more confident and empowered 
in the technology space.
EXCITED TO INCORPORATE
IMPLEMENTING AS WE SPEAK!
TEACHING IMPACT
The impact of this last week on teaching is so much more than skills and tools.  I have stepped into new shoes, and am excited about what the future brings for our classrooms.
HERE'S TO
Week 3!
