This week I had a little difficulty with the online learning program. I thought I understood the directions to an assignment but I misunderstood and my assignments were not graded and recorded. This has caused me some undue stress. I guess it can be a challenge not being able to ask questions in a traditional classroom atmosphere at times. Waiting for email responses to my questions can be stressful, especially when I keep checking back and they have not been answered yet. I am learning patience from learning online that is for sure! :o)
I also learned a lot about social networking sites this week. I explored some Facebook applications that I did not know existed and I was asked to really think critically about privacy on social networking sites. I came to the conclusion that nothing on the internet will ever be private. People even have to be safe using their credit cards and hope that the people working for certain companies do not find ways to commit fraud with their credit card information. At least there is usually insurance through the credit card company. There is no insurance when you place information on a social networking site. Bottom line, be careful! People really need to think before they act and that is good practice for most things and situations in life :o)
