In my previous posting, I mention 3 blogs which I am choosing to follow for my WaldenU assignment. The first one is called http://minutebio.com/blog I chose this one as it stresses the importance of social media in blogging and technology today in general. With a quick "tweet" through Twitter, the user can post instant information or experiences and spread the word. The use of social media is going to continue to grow and is something to continue watching.
The second blog I chose to follow http://www.upsidelearning.com/blog/index.php/tag/instructional-design/. I chose this not only for the author I mentioned in the last post, but as I continued reading the entire blog, the majority of items mentioned were things I was interested in or could relate to.
Lastly, the third blog http://www.upsidelearning.com/blog/index.php/tag/instructional-design/ is done by a former teacher. She and I both have similar Master's Degrees. We have both taught in the public education realm. We both reside in Florida. I also found her blog to be very personal and informal. Almost as if I was having a face to face conversation with someone I had worked with or known for years. It brought me comfort to read her blog as I face the unknown territory that lies in front of me and seek to go out of my comfort zone.
