Hi everyone. I cant believe that we are already done with 2 weeks of class. It has gone by fast and I am looking forward to the rest of the semester.
Week 1: This week was basically an introduction to the Environmental Health. Dr. V gave us an overview of what "environmental" health consisted of, she also had the class brainstorm and come up with what we thought environmental health meant. During week one the class also participated in the star wars activity. This is where we had various sized circles of rope scattered through out the class room and we had to find ways for each student to fit inside the circle. Dr. V randomly started to take away the circles and slowly but surely they began to disappear. I will admit that i was the one to break one of the circles and i apologize ha ha. It was a great activity for everyone to participate in and get to know eachother a little bit better.
Week 2: At the beginning of week two we began blogging. I have had some experience with blogs when I took computers in education, although I really had no idea how many things you were able to do with a blog. Blogging is a great way to communicate with classmates, teachers, and anyone else in the world. The best part about it is that its environmentally friendly, NO PAPER necessary=). You are able to add links, gadgets, and personalize your page which is a great way to show your personality and get to know other people.
I learned so much through blogging. Im not a technically advanced person at all so it was interesting for me to learn something new dealing with technology. I learned that even the little things we do, such as communicating online, can help the environment. By communicating through blogs it allows us to save paper, help the environment, and broaden our knowledge on technology. Although learning about blogs and creating them has been frustrating and overwhelming for me I am glad that Dr. V is giving us the opportunity to challenge ourselves and learn something new.
