Ok! Here we go! I am making my own website! Never did I think I would do this kind of thing, mainly because I would never have imagine I would know how to. My boyfriend is a web designer and filmmaker, and he is always talking about needing certain software, and writing pages and pages of code all day, and until now I had no idea what that entails (if you want to see one of his designs…. http://www.acefest.com/). I’m sure everyone starting out in this class says this, but I never knew how much work goes into making a website. In the first few days of class we learned a lot- how to put an image on the page, how to put an mp3 file on and play music, how to have links to the other pages of the website, and links to outside sites. It was a lot to take in. I am proud of what I have accomplished so far.
Moving forward, I am have really been enjoying the learning process so far, but I am interested, however in where this class is going to take me. How am I going to be able to use this info in my future career- past just having my own website. How am I going to apply this knowledge in my teaching dance?
Blogging is also totally new to me. I have never been a blogger, or read blogs daily. I’m interested to see if it takes and I continue to blog outside this class. I can definitely see a blog being useful in the future- if I wanted to write about my experiences in teaching, and maybe get dialogue going with other arts teachers.
Things laying ahead…. I have an assignment on image processing to finish up, and will be learning next week in class about the various ways to embed music on my site…. Stay tuned…
