ETG – the final post?

I am sorry to have the 2.0 learning come to an end.  It was an extremely positive experience .  The concepts were clearly presented and the tools introduced at a good speed – although I will go back to fully explore many of the tools that I did not have time to fully explore.

I was surprised at how easy many of the 2.0 tools were to use (excellent presentations on the part of the ETG Groups) and how many tools were available that I had not been exposed to.  I would not hesitate to try others both at work and in my at home web work.  I will also continue to blog in several areas/topics.

The social aspects of the technologies were my favorite - I had used many tools, such as Facebook and Second Life, before the ETG activities were introduced so having other staff members join in was great.  The shared learning added to the positive experience.

I was most surprised at how much I enjoyed the gaming .  Most of my past gaming experience was simply a means of communicating with my children and not necessarily my choice of games.  The game I chose and played via ETG was both addictive and fun.  I asked my teenager son if he had ever played it and he replied ‘No why would I?’ – perhaps a slight generation gap.

The only suggestion I have for futher sessions is to have more demo sessions – perhaps at lunch to accomodate those of us with little time…

Thanks for the positive learning experience.  I will definitely participate in future sessions.  Congrats on a well run program.
