Ok OK ok sooooo I should have got my butt into gear and acutally wrote down how I come across these and the search terms I used. I guess a big thing for my blog is how I would do things next time round. With so many things to search in such little time, i didnt see at that point in time to write everthing down, I just wanted the information and I wanted it now!! (haha can you tell Im a gen y’er

The following sites are ones I have book marked over the last few months ( I cant believe I even remembered to do that!) They have been useful so far. I really like the google books search ….although it was a bit of a tease becasue I then wanted to have all these books and not living near Brisbane and having a limited (dodgy) local libary who doesnt like to store many educational texts was a little frustrating.

To lead on from my last blog about you tube….I have always used youtube althoug not for educational purposes. Not being able to access this at school, I never really thought of using it for learning ( i know right…your saying darrhhhh right now) I mostly watched clips at home of people stacking it, leading to rolling round the floor laughing) It amazed me that so many pepole had used this for educational purposes and posted clips. I loooooove gettting on there and watching, actually one clip I watched and I know yes i shoulda saved it…..went on about how visual/oral literacy is going to be the way of the future that students will be on computers/filming their knowledge oooooh I wished I saved it!! Anyways it got me thinking of onto another subject I am doing right now(sorry Mandy) and it has motivated me to make my own clip for submission of one of my assignments. I hope it is not too high tech for that lecturer as some are just wayyyyyy not like you Mandy!! So thanks for the motivation in searching for new things. Without the idea of searching as a tool I would not have come across so many things that I didnt realise were out there. If only there was more time in the day to sit on this computer without going ga ga. Ga ga yep thats what the head feels like already and its only 10:05 am geesh what a day ahead!! Oh I thought Id add some songs in here for you thinking of going ga ga…they have 120 beats per min so they are suppose to perk you up…..hmmmm not sure if you can add them from my itunes, hmmm something to search for later on you tube….
