Blog Response for Week 7: Learning From ExperienceThink back to an educational experience that you had that was NOT well designed. If you now had the chance to re-design that experience using multimedia in your lesson design, what would you do differently and WHY? Remember to include some ideas about assessing multimedia learning in your design.
*I took an online English class my second year at Drexel. We were given an assignment to meet with a group (assigned by the teacher) and we had to meet in person to complete it. This really didn't make much sense since so many students that take online classes are long distance learners. If the teacher had utilized a chat or researched the tools blackboard or webct had to offer, the meetings could have been done online. A chat room would have been a wonderful solution and the students could have arranged to "meet" online at a specific time. Ideas would have been exchanged and the personal meetings could have been omitted. The professor should have spent more time researches his online options.

Those online ideas are really good idea. I think using blackboard is a great idea. It allows people to work together but they do not have to be in the same place. This happen to me, we were working in a group but one of the students was snowed in and could not make the meeting to we used skypes in order for him to be a part of the meeting but stay at home. I think professors should really consider this as viable options for students to use.
