This time I took part in a live Twitter Chat. This feels a little different than Twitter Chat in Module 4. During this chat, I learned a lot. At first I looked at the future of education from the perspective of students and teachers. But as I communicate with my classmates, and see what they think. My view on the future education has more perspectives, such as the government, companies (capitalists). These are angles that I didn’t really focus on at first. This activity gave me more perspectives to look at problems, and also made me realize that some problems are not so simple and we can actually consider problems from a deeper level. I choose this activity because I want to know more classmates’ ideas. These ideas can help me understand and look at problems. And I can learn more about future education from it. This activity made me know a lot about the advantages and disadvantages of open learning in the future, which enabled me to have a more comprehensive understanding of development and learning. This is in line with my learning goal.

For Module4, I chose the project Twitter Chat. At first in this event, because I couldn’t find a place on Twitter where people were chatting. I thought it was the Internet at first, but when I couldn’t find it the next day. I went to the coach. The professor patiently helped me by giving me a link to Twitter chat. This made it easy for me to tweet my thoughts on the professor’s six questions. The interesting point of this project is when we have no way to express our opinions in time for various reasons. We can also follow up with our thoughts after a set time. Because these ideas and opinions are out there. You might come back to chat one day when you think of one person’s opinion and you think of something else. I think this is where online education makes sense. And any time someone else sees these ideas, they can add their own. This activity made me understand more about the interesting place of online education. This activity made me better understand the topic of online education. And it also made me realize that a meaningful educational tool has a profound impact on online education.

My educational technology tool of choice is Top Hat. Top Hat was founded in Waterloo, Ontario, in 2009 by Mike Silagadze and Mohsen Shahini. Top Hat features an interactive college textbook library for students to read on mobile devices, a platform designed for teachers to check attendance, and other products for student engagement, homework, and activities, according to the tool’s introduction. When I use it, the teacher will post the class information on it, and the students can take some small tests in Top Hat. In order to use Top Hat, we need to provide our email address, enter your school information and name. This data will only be visible to our teachers, and Top Hat’s data section will also see this information. No one else can use your information without knowing your account password. Top Hat allows students to see the long class videos and materials handed down by teachers, and teachers can also set exercises after class in Top Hat. In this way, students can better grasp the content of the course. One problem, however, is that students who want to study at Top Hat have to pay a fee.

Reflection: I chose this activity because I have been exposed to many learning tools over the years. I hope to analyze these learning tools more systematically, and I want to know whether learning tools can help students learn better or not protect students’ privacy better. This project has given me a better understanding of the need to strictly review the learning tools when using them. Because we are not sure whether these tools will bring some potential harm to our time. I’ve learned from the technology I’ve chosen that we need to be more cautious when using educational technology tools. In this way, we can better protect our privacy security.

I can learn a lot from the way this article is read. Because I am reading the article, while the article I agree with or disagree with the point of view put forward their own ideas and views. In this way, I will have a deeper understanding and idea of this article. It’s like I had a hand in writing this article. I choose Learning Activity: Social Annotation because I want to have a better understanding of the impact of online learning on people. The reading of this article makes me have a better understanding of online learning, and it also makes me deeply realize that online learning is a great opportunity for many people who are unable to learn for different reasons. So that they can learn more knowledge that they are interested in.

The reason I chose to study the development of distance, distributed and open learning was because I wanted to understand this history. In this way, I can better understand the impact and change of distance learning on people’s lives. And I have a better understanding of how difficult it is to be able to learn remotely now. In this lesson my learning goal is to understand multimedia and information network. This project made me understand the development and history of information technology. That would be a step closer to my goal in this lecture. From this research, I have learned that the development of every project is subject to trial and improvement. In this way, our society and life will make progress.

I chose the course EDCI339 for two reasons. The first reason was that I needed to take a prerequisite class to get credit for it. The second reason was the desire to meet more students. I wanted to learn and get a feel for the use of multimedia in this class. I am a person who does not like to use multimedia to express myself. I hope this class will give me a taste of multimedia. I am a junior economics major. I am interested in learning the fascination of using language. I think language is a wonderful thing, when you say one word, maybe this word can change a person’s idea and impression of you. In my free time, I prefer to taste food, travel and read novels. I am a person who likes to travel to different places and taste the local food. Food is a microcosm of a region’s culture and history. And food has the magical power to heal the heart. When I eat food, I feel the pleasure of my body and mind. It makes me forget my worries. I think group study is a good thing. I like the idea of people in a team doing their own jobs and working together to accomplish tasks. Group learning is beneficial for me. I can hear different ideas and feelings in the discussion with the group members, which is also a kind of progress and development of ideas for me.
