Dear students,
Welcome back to school.
This is a new start for you; however, we would continue our projects that we started last semester.
Please refer to the syllabus (981_syllabus_me_you_others) and the schedule (981_schedule_me_you_others) for this semester.
I’ll explain your work in our first class meeting. Basically, you’ll work on the personal blog for the ME project and the interest blog for the other project. During this semester, you’ll experience how to collect data through a survey or a questionnaire and by using an online survey platform, surveymonkey. Also, Flickr will be integrated into your learning so as to help you combine different tools in Web 2.0.
The final work will be your writings and some multimedia works. I hope you enjoy it a lot.
