Week 5 Research Class

Lectures: Would not have known this was a new course unless it was mentioned all the time. Found the lectures to be clear and concise. Liked the two professor discussion back and forth.
Readings: I am not a very good reader, found the books to be kind of boring and actually a little obscure, but again this is not my learning style.
Searches: I found the searches to be extremely helpful. I have a hard time understanding how people got information before Google or other search engines.
Assignments and Activities: I find these to be the most useful and helpful for myself. I could read about action research all day for a month and then not have a clue on how to go about doing it. I feel that by the time I get done with my internship and action research project I will have a basic understanding of how to conduct one.
Discussion Board: I find it very useful to get other comments from people. I am always interested in seeing what other people think. I also enjoy reading other peoples answers and commenting on them.
Blogs: I am a technology idiot. I understand the world we live in requires it and the student population today embraces it. I just have a hard time because I am a dinosaur who did not have computers in school and have had to learn in my adult life. I consider the discussion board to really be just a different version of a blog.
