Hi all,

Week eight already, I can't believe it! Looking through my study plan for the semester I have discovered that my next three assignments are all due in the same week! I really want to give myself enough time on each of them to make them the best they can be. So this morning I have started working on assignment two for EDN113 when looking at the overview of the assignment, I didn't think it was going to be too difficult but I have quickly changed my mind. I have found it extremely difficult trying to find a conference paper that is relevant to my topic I have chosen. One of my peers in my workshop for this unit had said that she was having trouble also finding information on her topic. Jenni my tutor said that sometimes you will get different results on google if you type in the words in a different order. I decided to look for a video source and website first which was much more effective and I was able to start writing my report, but now I have to go back at looking for a conference paper which I am not looking forward to.

For the assignment we have been asked to choose an educational topic of interest, I have chosen history. We then have to research how technology can be used to teach this topic in the classroom. Once researched we then have to write a report about our findings and include at least five references; a book, a journal article, a refereed conference paper, a website and a movie or podcast (one of each).

I have already found this assignment to be a lot more interesting and challenging than I was expecting it to be. Just goes to show never under estimate.

That's all for now :)
