Last e-Learning Post for Uni (I think)
Posted by mykringo on November 6, 2007
Just recently I discovered a Google feature that has proved to very useful. Its called Web Alerts. The programme allows you to enter topics of interest and on a regular basis you will get a web alert e-mail as soon as anything is posted on the web regarding those topics. Over the past 2 months I have been getting daily e-mails with newly posted articles on e-learning, elearning and online learning. It has proved to be very worthwhile for this course as one of the issues we have with internet articles is they usually do not have a posted date so you do not know how recent or indeed relevant the article is. With this feature you get articles ‘hot off the press’. There are other interesting features to be found on their Google Labs Page which are still being developed but you can try them out and evaluate them, in other words become a Google Lab rat. You will also find programmes such as Web Alert which have graduated from the Lab on this page, google Notebook is another interesting program.
Well that’s it for now, I plan to have a few weeks break away from the computer. I am planning to have a go at building my own gaming computer to while away the hours till next semester.
p.s. Roman, I hope you like this layout (5th attempt), you will also notice I have dropped the green font just for you : )
